Orbit

Creator: Sten Studio
Offered by: Sten Studio

Description
Celestial bodies maintain particular orbits thanks to the gravity they exert among them, and this piece refers precisely to the systems that result from the relationships between planets, satellites, and stars. One of the most common cultural associations regarding minerals is that of hardness and permanence, the immobility of stone or the resistance of metal. The idea of the orbit gives back their mobility and fluidity to the composition‘s materials, connecting them to the planets‘ trajectories – in other words, it reconnects the heaviness of stone and metal with the movement to which they are subjected in a much larger scale than that of human life. That is how this piece, fixed „by nature“, comes rather to suggest a mobile essence.

Message from Seller:

Sten Studio is a design enterprise located in Mexico City, whose motive is to create objects and furniture that turn the use of minerals as materials into their essence. Thanks to it, all pieces are unique, given the characteristics proper to each of the stones. The studio is born from the passion for geology and industrial design, which has resulted in the experimentation with rock crystals that are yet to be explored in the world of decoration.
