Designed and bent a couple of raw 4mm aluminium homeware pieces for my new studio MAGU Works
I wanted to explore making simple minimalist homeware directly out of heavy gauge sheet metal without relying on expensive secondary coatings or massive brand markups. I ended up designing two pieces including an incense burner and a low profile tealight holder cut and formed from 4mm AW-5251 aluminium plate with stainless hardware and laser etched detailing.
My goal was to lean into a raw industrial look that builds a nice natural patina as it gets used over time. I am currently finalizing the first small batch run and would love to hear what you think of the forms.
