adam wiercinski creates kozak furniture series out of bent rebar

developed by poland-based adam wiercinski architekt, kozak is a series of furniture-trestles composed of tables and stools — tailored specifically for pubs and bars. as such, the heights of the objects correspond to the typical furniture dimensions of the drinking venues.

 
trestles – stool set of the kozak collection 

the visible structure is made of steel reinforced bent rebars, with a 14 mm thickness. but what characterizes the kozak collection is its cushioned rollers, with a diameter of 20 cm, filled with upholstery foam and covered in artificial leather — ranging from plain black to bright green. providing an antique and artisianl look, adam wiercinski left the rebar structures raw but protected them with a transparent varnish; the colors include stark white and rusted black.

for the set of tables, the structure has been reinforced with a top supporting steel cross. on the other hand, table tops with dimensions of 100 x 30 cm have been crafted using two raw MDF boards, twisted together as a final result.
