In life, you come across people who share your views and thoughts, and the exchange of these views slowly brings about a personal friendship and business partnership. Such a friendship has grown between Tina Demsar and Gregor Vres, both landscape architects, and me, and together we developed the idea of copper bowls. Tina and Gregor with their vivid imagination and aesthetic views on modern design create a series of bowls under the name Friends. We met Marjan in his flower shop. He impressed us with his distinctive style and untamed imagination. We often share the same thoughts on design and space and this is how the story of vases, motifs and objects generated in copper was born. The forms, so unusual for this material, turn, rotate, are filled with water, sand, a flower maybe, or glass. All of them are objects set in a space to tell their story, to change and play different roles. They can be shapes in water or sculptures, flower vases or fruit bowls. But finally, the one who co-creates the bowls is the one who takes it home and chooses and changes its content. Sphere 1 Made of two identical halves. They can rock on their own in their individuality, in their own rhythm, without disturbing each other. Separated, they represent the female and male pole, but when put together, they are one: a mysterious bowl of reconciliation. Square stone Combining two equal halves makes a case joined by a fine seam, and there we have a case with an upper opening for a flower or some other plant as the fruit of their unity. Concept and design: Marjan Lovsin, Tina Demsar and Gregor Vres, Landscape Sphere 2 A perfect form made of two halves with a small gap for a flower or a twig. Turning, rotating, playing with different sizes results in an endless number of compositions of these regular forms. Square Square and sphere playing together create a different kind of geometry. The form is rigid and soft at the same time, a contrast in itself. It can be empty or full, a surface or a volume, static or in motion. |
