MAISON & OBJET 2018
WE ALWAYS TRY TO BRING NEW LIFE TO OUR PIECES BY CHANGING THEIR FINISHISES AND COLOURS. IT’S AMAZING HOW YOU CAN GET SO MANY DIFFERENT STYLES KEEPING THE SAME PRODUCTS, JUST BY CHANGING THEIR FABRICS, METALS AND WOODS. IT ALSO ENHANCES THE FACT THAT EVERYTHING IS CUSTOMIZABLE AND MADE TO ORDER. EVERY PIECE PRODUCED BY DUISTT IS UNIQUE, MADE TO OUR CLIENT’S NEEDS. OUR MOTIVATION AND INSPIRATION FOR THIS STAND WAS THE COLOR RED, BY THE WAY IT CAPTIVATES, SEDUCES AND GETS OUR ATTENTION. IT SYMBOLIZES LOVE AND RAGE AT THE SAME TIME. AND FINALLY ITS FEMININE SIDE: LIKE THE RED LIPSTICK, RED SHOES AND CLOTHES AND THE POWER IT GIVES TO A WOMAN THAT WEARS IT. THIS IS A COMPANY BUILT BY A WOMAN, WITH FEMININE TEAM, AND AFTER THIS YEAR’S TOTAL ENHANCEMENT OF FEMINISM AND WOMAN ENPOWERMENT WE THOUGHT THIS JUST WOULDN’T BE TO MUCH.
