Interview with Knót Artesanal at Sunday 29th of April 2018 FS: What is the main principle, idea and inspiration behind your design? KH: The idea was to deconstruct a bedside table and take it back to it's simplest form and what is really necessary, FS: Why did you design this particular concept? Was this design commissioned or did you decide to pursuit an inspiration? KH: We decided to pursue this project as we thought that there must be a simple solution to the traditional bedside table. FS: Is your design being produced or used by another company, or do you plan to sell or lease the production rights or do you intent to produce your work yourself? KH: Production for us is just as important as design, we are us much furniture makers as we are designers and so far every piece we've produced from the initial idea though the construction to the finishes has been done by us alone. Having said given the right conditions for leasing or selling the design it is an option that we would certainly consider. FS: What sets this design apart from other similar or resembling concepts? KH: This design is different to usual models in that it has no legs, doors or drawers. Everything is open and visible yet nothing is compromised. The design satisfies the same requirements as a traditional bedside table yet the overall piece is far simpler and a lot sleeker. FS: What is the role of technology in this particular design? KH: This design as with all of our designs is a combination of a modern design process combined with a traditional construction techniques. FS: How did you decide to submit your design to an international design competition? KH: We both felt that it was something worthy to be submitted and worthy of recognition.
