BOND – side tables “to go”
With a mobile, functional trolley in mind, the designer duo Aust & Amelung developed "Bond", a whole family of filigree peripheral furniture. "The design language of Bond is graphic and its lines are reminiscent of simple icons," says Miriam Aust, who has been running the joint design studio in Kassel with her life and work partner Sebastian Amelung. "From a functional point of view, it was the idea of a mobile trolley that inspired us." Bearing all this in mind, they designed a height-adjustable individual work table, a round, elegant side table and a deeper coffee table. With their design, they have transferred the trolley as a useful tool from the world of travel into the world of living and working. "The zeitgeist is shaped by mobility; today we decide flexibly where we sit, communicate, work or meet," adds Sebastian Amelung. The new peripheral furniture functions similarly to satellites in orbit. Both designers are known for working puristically and systematically, but also for surprising with original ideas.
All of the side tables are based on filigree steel tube constructions with handles, rollers or fixed legs, while the shape of the substructures accommodates the antenna-like handles. Depending on the function of the furniture, a tray, a work surface or a table top is then fitted to the structural base frame. These additive elements are executed as finely processed MDF boards, lacquered or veneered. With the colour scheme allowing limitless individualisation in terms of RAL or special colours.
