“Railing is an exploration of structural modular loops that are upholstered like take care of-grips to become furniture,” explained ArandaLasch.
Each piece is conceived as a single loop consisting of multiple circles.
“Here, the circle does not display the qualities it is most identified for, but it is what a circle can be,” the studio explained.
