Description

Handcrafted in Belgium, British architect John Pawson has collaborated with When Objects Work since 2001, on a series of high-end functional objects that marry the architecture of a space and its atmosphere. 

The stone vases were launched in 2022, adding to the range of iconic geometries which include the hemisphere bowl and other objects.

There is a sense of engaging with the essence of a philosophy of space through everything the eye sees or the hand touches that defines Mr Pawson's work. 

Via a design approach where 'everything is architecture', whether at the scale of a monastery, a house, bowl or vase, everything is traceable back to a consistent set of preoccupations with mass, volume, surface, proportion, junction, geometry, repetition, light and ritual.

In this way, even modest everyday objects become a vehicle for much broader ideas about how we live and what we value.
