Ben Barber is Vancouver based a furniture and lighting design studio. Our mission is to explore the character of shape, emotional resonance in colour, and their unique interplay with materiality. The result is exceptionally crafted pieces that are playful yet refined.

Introducing the Artemis table, an exploration into architecture at the scale of furniture. The steel shelter is given a hand-applied patina with a waxed finish. Adding warmth to an otherwise cold form that invites the viewer to visually pass through the negative void. - The name Artemis comes from an exploratory space program that will place astronauts on the lunar surface and develop a sustainable research center on the moon. Extending humanity's presence in space. - Available in a limited edition of 20 + 2 AP’s (AP1 pictured) . . . . #benbarberstudio #furnituredesign #design #sculpture #interiordesign #architecture #brutalism #brutalist #minimal #blackenedsteel
