‘OXO’, a two product collection composed of a stackable chair and stool for italian company kristalia, is the outcome of ongoing research in contemporary manufacturing technologies and materials. presented at salone del mobile 2015, the design by xavier lust features aluminum pieces, bent metal surfaces, fluid curves and matte finish that reflect a physical manifestation of jazz music. intended for either indoor or outdoor use, the family’s form and muted finishes marry contradictory forces, creating a pieces consistent with kristalia’s founding tenets.
