Carapace Furniture Collection With Hard Metal Exterior

Carapace is a scientific term used to define a protective, decorative or camouflaging shell found on the back of animals such as beetles and turtles. This notion inspired the furniture series by Maarten Baas that consists of an armchair, desk, cupboard, small and wide cabinet, each of these pieces is characterized by a patchwork of bronze plating, dot welded piece-by-piece, forming the skin or ‘shell’ of the furniture, acting as a protective shield, similar to a turtle shell. Collectively the pieces reflect the idea of the protective in harmony with the beautiful. It is enveloped by a hard metal exterior that consequently conveys the evolution of the very fine interior where treasure can hide.
