Entry DescriptionThe Torch Collection brings the epic-gothic atmosphere of ancient times into modern interiors. By blending symbolic elements like torches, used throughout history, with a modern aesthetic, this collection stands out with its strong presence and elegant effect.
Torch was developed using layers that resemble snow crystals, in line with the Studio's philosophy of customizable and replicable design. The initial structure starts with a three-arm base, expanding and multiplying into four layers. This design offers versatility, making it suitable for a wide range of spaces, from small areas to large, high-ceilinged rooms.
Sustainability ApproachThe Torch Collection embodies sustainability through its modular and replicable design, minimizing waste by allowing for easy customization and reuse. The layered structure, inspired by snow crystals, is crafted to be energy efficient, with materials selected for their low environmental impact. By prioritizing longevity and adaptability, the collection reduces the need for frequent replacements, thereby lowering the carbon footprint.
