Wedge Design
Torva
Description
A vessel twisted into stillness.
Torva is a vase shaped by internal pressure, a form that rises like a vortex held in pause. Its asymmetric silhouette suggests torque and torsion, as if spun from molten material and caught mid-pull. The geometry is not smooth or ornamental but defined by resistance. Each curve grows from rotational asymmetry, balancing light and shadow across a body that feels at once anatomical, architectural, and algorithmic.
Color
Metallic
Dimensions
75*76*157mm
Uses
- Interiors seeking statement objects
- Residential spaces that benefit from collectible design moments
Why it works?
Strong geometric language creates immediate spatial presence.
Additive manufacturing enables forms not achievable through conventional furniture making.
Pieces function as both seating or tables and as architectural objects within a room.
Material expression is raw, refined, and directional.
About Wedge Design
Wedge is a London based design studio founded by Peiyan Zou, Andy Zhang, and Lei Zhang. The practice works across furniture, installations, and architectural systems through an experimental approach rooted in material ecology, computation, and fabrication. Their pieces are developed through binder jet printing in quartz sand, then hand finished to reveal a raw, stone like surface. The result is a sculptural design language that feels at once geological, digital, and tactile.
Respecting Biodiversity
- Material systems that minimize reliance on resource intensive extraction.
- Reduced waste production compared to traditional subtractive fabrication.
- Design approach prioritizes long life cycles and spatial permanence.
Sustainability Details
Materials: Aluminium alloy
Furniture produced through additive manufacturing processes that reduce material waste. Select pieces utilize sand based or mineral composite materials. Durability and longevity are central to the material strategy.
