Marie Garnier / Polarisations / 2007 / for CORIAN®: 40 Years - 40 Designers |
Window box and table centrepiece, Polarisations is
a functional object in Corian® inspired from the
transformations found in the vegetable world.
Created with the desire to identify a ‘Time scale’
and demonstrate the power of the vegetable reign
upon the object, a large area for plant growth and a
seedbed receptacle are jointly proposed as a unique
object that becomes a vector of quiet and patience.
The ‘window box’ is designed to be placed at the
centre of a table, from which one can directly gather
planted herbs. The object becomes the paradigm of
a garden. It can also be placed on counters or other
furnishings. It blends the human and vegetable
world. It is a structure made of several cut pieces
joined together, in part containing an open work
design for a visual effect similar to lace. This
texture strengthens the aerial feeling and creates
interaction between the plants and matter. A mobile
structure in cement is adopted to contain the water
and to separate the area of plants and the
“Laboratoire” of vegetables. |
