THE TUBE COLLECTION

The Tube Collection is a series of works derived from material experiments, which include mechanical actions to deform the metal. Out of these experiments, I obtained processing systems that allow me to effectively exploit the material properties and the properties of the accruing deformation in shape: technical and mechanical gestures that translate into a self-made aesthetic. 

Blurring the lines between designing every detail and spontaneous outcomes, the work shows an interplay between mechanical and hand-made gestures.

Tim Teven (1993) is a Dutch designer who graduated from Design Academy Eindhoven in 2018. Treating materials in an unconventional way to rethink the process of making allows him to find surprising techniques, which can then be translated into functional yet interesting objects. Teven works from his design studio, which was founded in 2018 and is based in Eindhoven. All the objects are hand-made with industrial craftsmanship.
