| KOLETIC
DESIGNS |
|
| by
John Koletic
Every
piece of furniture is individually designed, handcrafted and
signed by Koletic. Dependent on world market availability, he
uses a variety of salvaged burl including walnut, yellow cedar,
redwood, rosewood, box elder as well as exotic rosewoods and
ebony. Tung oil enhances and preserves the wood’s natural
colour and beauty, and a topcoat of lacquer, wax or oil is buffed
to a warm luster.

Machin
Chouette was founded in 1995 by graphic designer Lyse Maheu.
She intuitively utilizes pencils, paintbrushes, sewing machines
and even a wood cutter's bench. Above all, she likes to assign
new purposes to our predecessor's objects. For Lyse, a trolley
may turn into a coffee table, a tap will become a lamp, and
a hen cage can transform into a cupboard. She strives to meet
her goal, that is, to make intelligent, original, functional
objects and furniture of impeccable quality. |
