    Description

    This series of elegantly and playfully extrusion-like candleholders subtly pays tribute to the potential of this innovative manufacturing process. Based in Barcelona, Gasch practice equally values digital manufacturing methods as well as traditional crafts. In this series, he creates intentionally simple forms that could not be manufactured using any other process due to the complexity of the curvature.
    Sand, a material with a variety of mineral compositions, has been fundamental in architecture and construction from very primitive times. The sand printing process is surprisingly long lasting and durable making it an ideal material to be repurposed digitally as a product.
    Despite the innovative fabrication these candle holders are undeniably made from sand – stripped of any distractions allowing us to appreciate the quality of this raw material under a flickering candle. This fusion of ancient natural material and contemporary manufacturing technology symbolizes a fresh, symbiotic relationship between our past and our future.

    About Francesc Gasch Studio Visit Showroom →

    Francesc Gasch design approach is intuitively engaged with the making and production process. For Gasch the relationship between the craftsperson and the designer is key to the quality and success of his objects. The studio takes advantage of the strong craft and manufacturing heritage within both Catalunya and Europe. Gasch's close collaboration with local artisans means that his work always exhibits a high level of technical resolution from production down to the final detail. The studio gives equal importance to the digitally manufactured as the hand crafted, always seeking to find new synergies between human made and computer generated. Physical prototyping and testing is vital to Gasch’s design process. This constant testing and evaluation ensures that the outcomes of the studio are to the highest standard possible. Gasch is always aware of the impact his pieces have at an intimate level with the user and also the global impact on the world both socially and environmentally. As well as keeping production lean and local Gasch ensures that the manufacturing method leaves the smallest possible carbon footprint. With an attention to quality the studio’s products are produced to be valued and last, thus never needing to be recycled. This, Gasch believes, is the ultimate sustainable design. Francesc Gasch was born and raised in Casa Bloc, an example of rationalist architecture produced by the G.A.T.P.A.C in Barcelona in the 1930s. Casa Bloc is a prime example of functionalism in architecture. This influenced the development of Gasch’s design ethos from an early age. Trained as both a creative designer and engineer he is passionate about finding solutions that are innovative from both a creative and technical point of view but also utilitarian and unique.
