The W Candleholder: A Brutalist Interpretation by 101 Copenhagen
Drawing inspiration from the bold and uncompromising aesthetic of brutalist architecture, 101 Copenhagen introduces the W Candle Holder. This distinctive piece is an assemblage of leaning columns intersecting at varied angles, a design choice reminiscent of the stark and raw concrete structures seen in brutalist constructions.
The ingenious use of mathematical angles ensures that each intersection point varies in height, thus crafting a dynamic and striking visual narrative. The result is a bold statement piece, exuding a graphic potency that commands attention.
Available in two sophisticated hues, the W Candle Holder is designed to accommodate four candles. This allows the piece to not just serve as a decorative marvel but also a functional addition to any living space, casting a warm, ambient glow when illuminated. Crafted with precision from ceramic, each candle holder undergoes a hand glazing process, a testament to 101 Copenhagen's commitment to artisanal craftsmanship. As with all hand-glazed items, there might be minor variations in colour, adding to the uniqueness of each piece.
The W Candle Holder is yet another example of the collaborative genius of Kristian Sofus Hansen & Tommy Hyldahl, showcasing 101 Copenhagen's dedication to innovative design and unparalleled quality.
