‘particle’ is the latest work from sara ivanyi of the amsterdam-based design studio form follows freedom. creating places to hold fruit arrangements, this 13-piece set features a part for every atom in the citric acid molecule. ‘fruits become the atoms in their own molecular component – citric acid connects all fruit,’ ivanyi explains. ‘in biochemistry, it is involved in the citric acid cycle, an important stage in the metabolism of almost all living things.’
made of CNC-milled and hand-lacquered albizia plywood, ‘particle’ is a limited edition set commissioned for designmarketo’s ‘lemonade for all’ presentation at sofia design week 2011.
