Timber is a playful and customisable furniture range by French designer Vincent Tarisien, derived from his research on the combination of two materials — made solely from bio resin and wood. Designed to be assembled at home, each piece in the collection is entirely customisable and comes neatly packaged in a cardboard cylinder. Once the wooden frame has been assembled, a resin is poured over the mould, which sets in just a few minutes.
The elements of each kit are simple: an instruction sheet made of Tyvek, a series of interlocking wooden components, and bio resin that can be easily mixed by the user. The bio resin is dyed according to the user’s tastes or the room’s colour, pointing out how the mix is then easily poured over the wooden framework. When the mix hardens within a few minutes and locks the grid, revealing a graphic play between the structure and surface pattern.
