Appreciation towards Maarten De Ceulaer for providing the following description:        

一款不像人造而像是自我发展的有机行事作品，可能是细胞突变结果，也可能是化学或者核反应突变结果。像是病毒或者细菌的不断繁衍。这系列作品让人们重新看待家具，也许有天人们能够像繁殖动物或者科隆动物那样制造出成长的家具，并操纵其形状。

这系列高度雕塑化的家具可以看成对传统家具的一次革命。精心设计的形状由各种大小的泡沫球组成，最外层的处理具有天鹅绒般的触觉。每一件作品都是独一无二。

Mutation Series

The pieces in this series look like they weren’t made by hands, but have grown to their present form organically. They might be the result of a mutation in cells, or the result of a chemical or nuclear reaction. Perhaps it’s a virus or bacteria that has grown dramatically out of scale. The Mutation pieces make you look at furniture in a different way. Maybe one day we would be able to grow a piece of furniture like we breed or clone an animal, and manipulate it’s shape like a bonsai tree.

On the other hand, the project can be seen as an experimental review of classic furniture upholstery. It reminds us of the famous and iconic deep buttoned (Chesterfield) sofa’s, interpreted in a highly contemporary and sculptural way. Instead of upholstering springs and foam with leather or textile, these pieces are created by carefully composing patterns with cut-offs of foam spheres of various sizes, and applying them onto a structure. In the end the entire piece gets coated, with a durable rubber or tactile velvet-like finish. It is hardly impossible to ever recreate such a specific pattern, so every piece is completely unique.
