Buro Bruno is lead by Bruno van Hooijdonk, with his minimalist yet detailed way of working, he combines eye-catching form with a unique approach to function.
The above pictures show the design of table "Asquare", of 6 intricately intertwined origami-like legs that fan out into a star shape, holding up a beveled glass tabletop. The table holds itself together only by its own tension. The table is made out of 6 three dimensional squares of polyamide. Each square has a vertical wall thickness of 5 mm. to get maximum strenght. The horizontal walls are 4 mm. thick and the most flexible wall is 3 mm. thick. The design of Asquare is you might say somewhat paradoxic. The sqaures are all sculptured in the computer and digitally printed, but the actual end product has to be assembled by hand. For me this gives the table an extra charme, not to be completely digital. This also leaves possibilties for other combinations with the same squares. The design is already available as a FULL SCALE PROTOTYPE, made out of 6 squares of 30x30 cm. (total size is 60x60x30 cm.) With this design I wanted to create a larger volumetric object build from smaller components with the possibilties of Rapid Prototyping. This 3 dimensional (handmade) pattern forms a dynamic spectacle in your living as well.
This ring a little more decorated than Ring_01. Instead of all the little squares ordered in one direction, there is every other square one square added and turned 90 degrees.

This ring has been added with a stonelike starshaped ornament. Like a diamond ring, only different :) (On the top right of this screen you can personalize your size with the green button.)
This bracelet is structured in a 3x12 squared circle. Inner size is 63x63 mm. The squares are smaller, but the bracelet is becoming a little wider on your wrist.
This brooch can be made in several materials, but only the metal ones (steel, goldplated and bronze) can be worn with a magnet (not included!). Unfortunately the rest of the materials are not magnetic and therefor you have to fix a spelt yourself. This will also be the case for the silver versions.If you like you can always wear the brooch as a pendant. in any material.

This bracelet is also structured in a 12 squared circle. Inner size is 63x63 mm.Notice this one is made slightly less wide in order to print it in silver. Width is 30 mm.
Buro Bruno is all about sleek, contemporary designs. Using one or two main materials, they craft unique, streamlined pieces designed for their simplicity.
