Teerapoj Teeropas, Kitt-Ta-Khon


The Chino collection is inspired by the traditional Chinese console from the Qing Dynasty. Employing graphic practice, rattan is used to outline the basic shape of the table while the cord-tying techniques evoke the design languages of various cultures. Through this, the console is transformed into an intercontinental piece, no longer defined by one culture. At first glance, you may recognise the Chinese-inspired structure but upon further inspection, familiar patterns and details that can be seen in African, Moroccan and European designs shine through.

The console is topped with clear glass to highlight the structure, an element that is often hidden and under appreciated behind opaque tabletops.

Chino embodies Kitt.Ta.Khon’s brand ethos — that craft is a universal language — by allowing elements from each culture to co-exist in one design, blurring the lines between countries and each reference’s true origin.
