Beat Poet x 22designstudio Concrete Rings
November 14, 2010 ⋅ Style ⋅ by Staff ⋅ 239 Views

Beat Poet teams up with 22designstudio of Taiwan to develop this new series of concrete rings, based on the brutalist ideas of architects such as Louis Kahn and Tadao Ando. The rings are characterized by simple geometry and an almost exclusive use of concrete, with the form work holes left intact. The concrete, imperfect and raw, like a man-made contribution to the natural environment, ages gracefully in a wabi-sabi manner, making visible the invisible logic of nature. Further information on Beat Poet is offered through the brand’s website.

    I am positive it all works out given the crafstmanship that it takes it to created it. But as far as raw materials cost compaired to retail, damn they must be making a penny on this mark up.

    no it wont. The only thing that would cause discomfort would be the thickness of the ring band between the fingers and these look very wearable. Havent you ever seen concrete that is a smooth as glass? Im sure this is close to the same finish.
    2 bills is a bit much but im sure it all works out given the crafstmanship that it takes it to created it. But as far as raw materials cost compaired to retail, damn they have to be making a pretty penny on this mark up.

    very skillfull to model something so delicate out of concrete, the formwork holes r pretty silly though.
