Organic shapes come to life. When the model is made, the water gets drained. After draining, the bath wil be filled up with gypsum. The gypsum mould is put in an oven to remove the wax before casting the aluminium.
The two side’s of the chair (which are actually two inverted number 4′s) are drawn. Just like the shelves which become in between the two sides. All of these are made in wax. When the parts are finished in wax, a rubber mould is made of the wax pieces. After this the moulds get filled up with a two component liquid plastic. When the plastic is hard, the pieces are taken out and the chair gets assembled. The organic ‘Kaarsrecht Chair’ is born!

This shaft is visible all the way to the rooftop. The whole is illuminated, plants grow everywhere and all the way up. In this open setting, the upper floors of offices are visible and people walk through the halls. The rise of light and the plants ends in the rooftop in which trees grow. So we ended up back on the outside of the building. A passerby on the busy highway next to the building will see a wall of bright light getting into the building and see trees grow out of the rooftop It will be clear that new life in the building is blown.

Kaarsrecht Glas is a project involved dropping a box of hot candle wax into cold water. As the top layer of wax hardens it begins to float, drawing up the wax below and forming the stem. The cups are made by dipping a balloon filled with cold water into hot wax until several layers form. The two components are then joined and used to make a mould, from which the glasses are cast.
