The "Frosch" is a phenomenon in sheet metal processing where tension is created in the material through deformation. By applying force against this tension, the sheet metal "springs" back with an audible snap into an opposite shape. The plate series utilizes this effect to create a concave form that serves as a plate or bowl.
The pendant lamp uses a folding technique that curves the edges inward, creating a soft,
rounded form. This shape supports two steel wires that suspend the lamp from the ceiling.
The exterior is blackened with linseed oil, while the interior is heat-blued, resulting in a
reflective and slightly iridescent surface inside, contrasted by the subtle, matte black finish
on the outside.

Pendant Lamp uses inward folds to tension the flat sheet into a convex shape. The inward folds hold tight a steel wire, used to hang the obejct into the air. Recessed LEDs light the inside of the Lamp, showcasing the volume created by tension.

The coffee table visualizes the technique from “Shell” in a bigger scale. Four folds create feet for the table to stand on. The folds also create a flat tensioned plane on top.
The shell battery lamp can be either positioned on its feet or on its side. Leaving the used
with the option of passive light or a spotlight.
The shape playfully reminds of small animals. It can be easily carried and positioned elsew-
here. Inside the carry handle sits a battery and a LED. It can be charged by a usb c port.
This sculptural object playfully uses the act of cutting into the sheet and moving the resulting flaps over each other. A tensioned 3D Volume creates. Combining round and rectangular lines.
