NOM.0 x ALBA
At ALBA, flour forms the base and quality ingredient for unusually good slices of sourdough pizzas.
During flour production, spelt bran emerges as a by-product and consists of discarded grain parts like husks. In this collaboration, spelt bran — sourced from ALBA’s small local producer in Switzerland — takes on a different role. Here, it’s the key component for a limited number of wall sconces, exploring the by-product’s potential as a natural resource for new biomaterials.
The Wall Sconce showcases maximum simplicity in shape and joining technique, drawing attention to the raw texture of the biomaterial and its interplay with light. Adapting to the direct influences of light, tones of biomaterials appear from a muted brown up to a vibrant amber. This approach makes the sconce extremely versatile. It contrasts and complements particularly well with smooth white walls, cold-toned floors, organic or brutalist surroundings, offering a warm, illuminated character.
Biomaterials and Objects are handcrafted, slight differences in dimension and aesthetic may appear.
