About This Piece

Contemporary Design

This new family of tables with round tops in OSIS with a veneer edge and matching frame colour. Open compartments under the tabletop offer additional storage space. The steel frame is powder-coated and corresponds with the special OSIS colour patterns in Panther, Pea and Bordeaux.

material: multiplex birch, powder coated steel

The surface finish OSIS is an innovation developed by llot llov in Berlin and is 100% handmade.

We transferred the effects of osmosis caused by salt onto wood. The surface is glazed monochrome or multi-coloured. Salt is spread on the wet surface in different techniques. Soon the natural process starts. Salt has the capacity of absorbing liquids from its environment and collecting pigments of paint at the same time. The results are determined by the different kinds of salt we use, humidity and length of reaction time.

When combined with birch wood, the salt draws the pigment into the natural flow of the grain, emphasizing the unique features of the original material.

Liquid resistant: The surface has resistance to water and oil. This has been made possible through the strength of the PU lacquer we used. The surface can be easily cleaned.
Fire Protection: According to the standard EN 13501-1, the surface has a good level of resistance (level B1) to fire and limited combustibility.
Hygienic: Does not release harmful substances. The surface is suitable for contact with food.

About the Creator

Llot Llov

Berlin-based design studio Llot Llov was founded by German designers Ania Bauer (born 1977) and Jacob Brinck (born 1979) in 2009. Bauer graduated from the Design department at the highly regarded Universität der Künste (University of Arts) in Berlin in 2010, while Brinck completed his Design qualification at the Fachhochschule Potsdam just outside of Berlin in 2008. The pair met through Berlin’s famed nightlife and began collaborating in 2007, before the knitted Matt (2009) lamp put the designers on the map and pushed them to launch their own studio.

Craft is a central tenet of Llot Llov’s product designs—macramé, woodturning, and metalwork in particular—a mission that was clear from the beginning with the wonderful hand-crafted feel of the Matt light. Another, more recent, example is the Osis (2015) series created for Gallery Bensimon: drawing reference from silk painting techniques using salt crystals to create striking textures in the ink, Llot Llov developed a companion technique using water-based colors and salt on wood. The resulting pattern, which unites the designer’s hand with organic and unpredictable elements, is quite emblematic of the studio’s overarching aesthetic, which the two lead designers describe as “poetic but minimal.”

Llot Llov was initially based in Berlin’s Mitte district in a studio that was attached to a gallery showcasing their work. In 2010, the studio moved to the hip and alternative neighbourhood of Berlin Neukölln, where Bauer and Brinck continue to lead a small team of assistants and freelancers. In 2016, Llot Llov won a material innovation prize at the German materialPREIS award for their innovative surfaces for the Osis collection. The studio’s work has been featured at Design Week Milan, Design Week Paris, Möbelmesse Cologne, Design Week Hong Kong, and ICFF New York.
