Designer Joost van der Vecht:
“The #design brief for the Kami collection was to develop a table system with a repeating life cycle.My aim was therefore to build the table completely from recycled paper, including the base.For this I used the stiffness of a column. After all, a sheet of paper becomes strong when you roll itinto a tube. The result is a #design with a very clear image that everyone understands. Both the designof the table and its footprint have simultaneously become a "bold" and friendly statement."
