Nook is a new range of plastic furniture by German designer patrick frey, and currently on show at the imm cologne furniture fair 2010. The collection is constructed with the material varioline® made of solid structural outer layers and a lightweight foamed center core, resulting in a light-weight panel that is structural and impact-resistant.
A single piece of varioline is used in production, and folded along a milled cinching pattern to create structural tension. The entire form is later fixed at the bottom using an aluminum catch.
