Even furniture can have a rhythm: Bundle, designed by Objects of Common Interest for Meritalia®, is a duo composed of table and stool with perfectly complementary shapes. Stacked tubular volumes, entirely covered in glossy coated fabric, make regular compositions marked by repetition and compression. Lashing straps wrap around the layers, showing the tension that simultaneously defines and holds the forms. The result is a balance between expansion and control, where curves, color, and texture generate a sculptural yet surprisingly functional presence.
In line with the most legendary interactive pieces in Italian radical design, the "hole" in the center of the table has a very specific function: to insert the stool. Thanks to the straps that cross it, the stool can be lifted and placed wherever needed: either to complete the tabletop or to function as a stand–alone object. In the home, Bundle is a rhythmic presence that helps organize and characterize the space in a nonchalant yet impactful way: why not have more than one around the coffee table?
In Objects of Common Interest's work, Bundle is a natural evolution of a research that intertwines installation, experiential environment, and sculptural object. The duo's works bridge the influences of Greece and New York, uniting the two contrasting narratives in new forms.
