Miart 2019: Sideboard by Johannes Hock at Frank Landau
Frank Landau exhibited a collection of design objects and limited-edition furniture at miart 2019, including a Sideboard by German carpenter, architect, and designer Johannes Hock.
The veneered surface on the top and sides incorporates 30 types of wood. Featuring a complex diamond pattern, Sideboard by Johannes Hock highlights Hock’s carpentry skills and design sensibility.
Six drawers with bronze fronts complete the Sideboard, offering a simple and streamlined juxtaposition to the complex geometry of the other surfaces.
Hock does not separate design from creation. “No designer will ever fully understand his creation unless he gets physically involved,” explains Hock. As a master carpenter, Hock can make whatever he can envision, which is perhaps why his furniture pieces showcase craftsmanship to such a high degree.
