Products for public spaces, such as street furniture, must be able to last a long time. Pharaoh is not only durable from a technical point of view, but also visually. This offers the opportunity to apply this furniture in locations that require more than a standard solution: museums, squares, airports, showrooms, outdoors but also indoors.

In this project I work together with furniture maker Glenn Charls. We named the design Pharaoh, after an ancient Egyptian dog, but also because the material is centuries old. In interior architecture, mosaic is often applied to two-dimensional surfaces, such as floors and walls. This is a step further. The small dimensions and the finished sides of the Bisazza glass mosaic tiles make the material very suitable for use on three-dimensional objects and ensure a soft, rounded design of the furniture.

The length of the furniture is variable, from chair to bench. You can place the furniture freely or anchor it to the floor. When the chairs or benches are placed back to back, they appear to make contact with each other. This gives the user a feeling of sociability, but also of privacy. Pharaoh can be made in different colours and colour combinations from the Bisazza glass mosaic collection. In addition to this shape, furniture with a different design can be supplied.

Pharaoh has been selected for the Dutch Design Awards.
