20/01/2020 - The Tablet collection, designed by Ramon Esteve for Vondom, links new technologies and flexibility to the versatility of a sectional composition, creating a program based on the duality, identity and integration. Its character blends with the space and adapts itself to it.
This versatility can be seen due to the collection’s capacity to adapt to different surroundings, creating a reticular composition derived from the sectional’s juxtaposition where the compositing freedom is the main goal. The upholstery, made of independent sections, allows you to create different shapes, which always keep visual consistency.
This versatility can be seen due to the collection’s capacity to adapt to different surroundings, creating a reticular composition derived from the sectional’s juxtaposition where the compositing freedom is the main goal. The upholstery, made of independent sections, allows you to create different shapes, which always keep visual consistency.
The collection’s construction, based on polyurethane foam with a metallic structure upholstered with polypropylene fabric, makes TABLET a perfect collection both for indoor and outdoor spaces, thanks to its sophisticated aesthetic and finishing.
Vondom asked Ramon Esteve to talk about the collection in six questions:
Why Tablet?
The name links new technologies and flexibility to the versatility of a sectional composition. Mobile devices adapt themselves to each user’s needs and that is the collection’s goal.
Your new collection for VONDOM is named TABLET. What do you want to communicate to the current technological world? What does it represent?
By one side we look for versatility and technology; by the other, kindness, comfort and integration. I look for a piece that has this duality: identity and integration. Being characteristic and unique but at the same time blending with the space and fitting in a contemporary surrounding as much as it would in a refurbished historic building. Tablet is an ambitious project because it’s been designed both for indoors and outdoors, as well as for both residential and commercial use. Due to its comfort and geometry will perfectly fit in commercial projects, even though the technic of its manufacturing provides additional comfort that makes it suitable for residential use.
Harmony, timeless and contextualization are some of the key concepts in your design idea. How do you integrate this philosophy in Tablet? What would you like to transmit with it?
Harmony is connected to order and to the relation between the whole and the parts. When I talk about harmony in this collection, I mean the proportions, which in this case, generate a balanced piece through those bumpy squares, slightly deformed, to get a small curve that, thanks to the foam, generate the fabric tension that provides comfort. Timeless refers to durability. I want it to go beyond, not being a fashion piece with expiring character, but perfectly balanced and able to resist timing.
Please tell us about colors and textures chosen for this collection.
The collection’s construction, based on polyurethane foam with polypropylene fabric, makes TABLET a perfect collection both for indoor and outdoor spaces, thanks to its sophisticated aesthetic and finishing. The fabrics used are made by Enzo and have strong textures that, at the same time, are so natural that remind you of materials like cotton, linen or wool. By one side, they are highly resistant to the elements, UV, etcetera and by the other, are warm enough to fit in an indoor space.
VONDOM has expanded its construction policy in order to make a collection like Tablet possible, with new materials and textures that integrate the collection to indoor spaces. What do you think that this change means for the company?
In this case, Vondom is embracing evolution and technology, opening a new field that gets as a result a collection with a warmer and more domestic look. In spite of its high technology design, thanks to the upholstery and the absence of visible plastic, Tablet becomes a perfect piece both for residential and commercial use.
Lastly, where would you like to see this collection?
I would like to see it in many surroundings; from a classic or Renaissance building to the offices of a modern company like Apple. The collection could be placed as well in a house that I could design for this purpose.
