Spec Sheet: Jot Cabinet

The playful aesthetic we’ve come to expect from Marmar Studio is on full display in their latest creation, the Jot Cabinet. Made with charming inlays of contrasting wood species, the design explores flatness and dimensionality through wrapping along intersecting planes. The effect is a shift in pattern which creates an ever dynamic constellation.

Founder Ingemar Hagen Keith’s design practice concentrates on the relationship between minimalism and familiarity, “The inspiration for the Jot Cabinet came about from a pair of pants I sewed using a deadstock Marimekko textile. When I cut from the fabric and assembled the pants, the original pattern of the textile was entirely reconfigured. Observing where lines serendipitously intersected and diverged, I was taken by the ways the flat graphic disrupted and enhanced the form. I am guided by the ethos of creating objects that have an innate sense of animation. The Jot Cabinet is a continuation of my recent works that have explored furniture objects that endear their users.”
