About

Silo Pouf

The Silo pouf takes its name from its simple cylindrical shape, which forms a strict contrast to the vibrant upholstery. Luxurious, woven textiles from the Italian manufacturer Imatex give the poufs a stroke of extravagance that is held neatly in place by the simple geometric silhouette.

The poufs are available in three sizes, Ø50, Ø70 and Ø90 cm, that can be combined in 3 color directions: Muted black/brown shades set the tone for sophisticated city chic, a palette of blue hues direct your thoughts towards the Italian coast, while a mixture of warm confetti colors and dusty brown creates an exclusive and lively vibe.

Silo has a soft but firm surface so that it can act as a stand-in for a coffee table, for example to keep magazines and literature. The pouf can live in a hall, living room, dressing room or bedroom as a flexible and decorative addition to the furnishings.
Designer

Hans Hornemann

The young Danish designer Hans Hornemann graduated as a Master of Engineering in Industrial Design from the University of Aalborg 2014. Hans Hornemann emphasizes the combination of aesthetic simplicity and high functionality in expressive and light-hearted design. He is fascinated by the industrial and technical solutions in design in terms of both material and mode of expression. Natural materials often inspire him, and he endeavors to strip the design to its bone and portray the honesty found in the materials. 

“In my opinion design should be a balance between an aesthetic minimalism and functionality with a user friendly experience. As a designer I aim to be true to the material used in order to enhance and bring out its natural qualities and characteristics. I value clean and minimalistic lines that add a new spin to the classic design. In creating a design, I think it’s important to start from scratch and bring a new contribution to the products idiom, expression or functionality.”
