Product • By NEDEVDESIGNThe Chair

The Chair

A sculptural chair designed to bring an architectural presence to the interior. The chair combines a strong, monolithic silhouette with softly rounded edges and an intentionally tactile, imperfect surface. Its organic form gives it the presence of a sculptural object while remaining a functional and comfortable seat. The chair is made using NEDEVDESIGN’s in-house concrete composite, developed as a lightweight alternative to solid concrete. A lightweight foam core is encased in a thin, strong, fibre-reinforced concrete shell, made primarily from cement and natural sand. Combines reduced weight with the distinctive character, texture and material presence of concrete. Product dimensions: 56 (L) × 50 (W) × 43 (H) 67Weight:... More

The Coffee Table

A sculptural coffee table inspired by the raw, organic forms of stone and architecture. The table combines a softly rounded tabletop with a sculptural multi-leg base, creating a strong, grounded presence while retaining an organic sense of movement. The irregular form of the base is deliberately tactile and imperfect, giving the piece a distinctive character from every angle. The table is made using NEDEVDESIGN’s in-house concrete composite, developed as a lightweight alternative to solid concrete. A lightweight foam core is encased in a thin, strong, fibre-reinforced concrete shell, made primarily from cement and natural sand. Combines reduced weight with the distinctive character, texture and material presence of concrete. Produc... More

Product • By NEDEVDESIGNThe End Table

The End Table

A sculptural side table built around a simple geometric idea. Two opposing forms meet at the centre to create a distinctive hourglass silhouette, balancing a wide, grounded base with a generous tabletop. Its softly textured surface adds depth and tactility to the minimal geometry, while the compact proportions allow it to work naturally across a range of interiors — from residential spaces and bedrooms to hospitality, galleries and other design-led environments. The table is made using NEDEVDESIGN’s in-house concrete composite, developed as a lightweight alternative to solid concrete. A lightweight foam core is encased in a thin, strong, fibre-reinforced concrete shell, made primarily from cement and natural sand. Combines red... More

Creta Chaise

When concrete becomes fluid. CRETA CHAISE explores the expressive potential of large-scale 3D concrete printing by transforming a traditionally rigid material into an organic, fluid and enveloping form. Conceived as a continuous gesture, the chair follows soft curves and flowing lines that wrap around the body, creating a welcoming seat designed to invite interaction and encourage the user to sit. The characteristic layered texture generated by 3D printing becomes an essential part of the design language. Rather than concealing the manufacturing process, CRETA CHAISE celebrates it, making the digital fabrication process visible in the final object. The result is a sculptural piece of furniture that combines additive manufacturing, concr... More

Project • By AshariArchitectsExhibition Centres

liminal pavilion

Liminal Pavilion is a temporary architectural installation designed and constructed for a five-day public event exploring the theme of Tehran. Rather than representing the city through recognizable forms or imagery, the project investigates how architecture can translate the perceptual condition of Tehran into a spatial experience. Characterized by density, uncertainty, constant transformation, and fragmented sequences of movement, the city is interpreted not as an object to be observed but as a condition to be inhabited. The pavilion therefore functions as an experiential apparatus that reconstructs these urban qualities through a carefully choreographed progression of movement, light, material, and sensory perception. Navid Atrvash... More

Harsh Nigam Drawing inspiration from its lush surroundings, the project stands as a testament to how architecture can be both responsible and poetic, a perfect synthesis of sustainability, functionality, and artistry.

Project • By Alessia IacovoniPrivate Houses

Casa GA

The small city villa is part of a bigger housing complex which is not visible from the road. A pleasant journey through a long and isolated garden ends in a slightly lower veranda. A shaded and intimate space that melts with the openness of the ground floor and leads to the entrance. Alessandro Imbriaco The bright open space on the ground floor hosts the daily activities of the young family. It’s a unique and generous living room where light can freely flow or be easily arranged thanks to an ad-hoc rotating wall. Alessandro Imbriaco Once hidden by a thick plaster layer, the brightness of the structure is now clearly revealed, driving the whole concept of the spaces and creating a direct dialogue between structure, form and...

Project • By spillmann echsle architektenHousing

House P, Erlenbach

The tapered 500 square-metre property is situated on a ridge on the right bank of Lake Zurich. The structure’s dimensions result from the contracting shape of the plot. The detached house comprises two full storeys with an attic and a basement including an underground car park. The projecting and receding levels of the single-shell concrete construction appear deliberately stacked on top of each other and create balconies with different orientations. The window openings are positioned precisely in the individual rooms to ensure views of the lake and into the distance. A staircase core runs through the structure like a backbone and holds the compact interior layout together. The structure’s heaviness offers presence as a res... More

All about designing with concrete

Versatile, tested, and proven, concrete has been employed for thousands of years in the creation of durable and long-lasting structures. Alongside this, the design freedom and customization of concrete sets it apart as a favourite of architects and designers.  Jack Thompsen Composition of Concrete: Concrete is made from a mixture of aggregates, cement, water, air, and additives such as admixtures and pigments. Comprising 60% to 80% of the concrete mix, aggregates give concrete its strength and bulk. Common aggregate types include gravel, crushed stone, slag, sand, glass, and geosynthetics. Recent advancements in the green building industry have seen a rise in the popularity of aggregates made from recycled concrete or recyc... More
