Kettal u Designs by Rodolfo Dordoni & Doshi Levien
Kettal has unveiled two new striking launches. The Bitta furniture collection, created by Rodolfo Dordoni, combines aluminium frames with braided polyester cords to lend a lightweight yet ‘cosy’ aesthetic to each item. A centrepiece of the new collection is the extendable table, which is finished with a teak, marble or aluminium top. Designed by Doshi Levien for Kettal, the Geometrics fabric collection explores the interplay of different geometries in two rug designs, Block and Line. That the pair share the same weave technique means they lie well in combination and the hard-wearing rugs come in two sizes, 2m x 3m and 3m x 4m, both suitable for outdoor use.

Ideal as a design feature centrepiece within a spa, the new Liquid Forms 3D tiles from Kaza Concrete are capable of transforming a building’s interior architecture. Designed by New York-based architect Aybars Asci, the tiles were inspired by ‘the expression of flow and movement in solid form’; Asci also looked to the mastery of Baroque marble sculptors to create the tile’s design. Available in either a glossy or matte finish in a broad colour range, the tile is aesthetically versatile and can generate multiple patterns as well as unique visual qualities, giving architects and interior designers a rich palette to work with.
