ABOUT.

RUN BY SEBASTIÁN ALARCÓN (B.2000), ASET CRAFTS CONTEMPORARY FURNITURE AND OBJECTS, COMBINING A HANDS-ON APPROACH WITH INDUSTRIAL MACHINING. ASET EXPLORES MATERIAL POTENTIAL THROUGH CURIOSITY AND ITERATION, IN SEARCH FOR PIECES THAT BALANCE CLARITY, FUNCTION, AND FORM.

DESIGNED AND CRAFTED IN QUITO, ECUADOR.

MODULARITY AND MATERIALS.

MATERIAL IS CHOSEN FOR WHAT IT DOES. WHERE MATERIALS MEET, JOINTS ARE DESIGNED SATISFY THE EYE, SOMETIMES HIDDEN, SOMETIMES EXPOSED. ASET RESEARCHES NEW WAYS TO PUT MATERIALS TOGETHER SO EACH PIECE READS AS ONE THING. THE WORK IS OFTEN BUILT IN MODULES. PIECES MOVE, EXTEND, COME DOWN, GET REBUILT.

DURABILITY.

PIECES ARE BUILD TO LAST.

ASET'S WORK IS MEANT TO BE KEPT, SEEKING TO BUILDING ATTATCHMENT TO USER WITH TIME. IT GATHERS TRACES OF USE AND AGES THROUGH WEAR AND PATINA.

OFFCUTS FROM ONE PROJECT BECOME THE MATERIAL FOR ANOTHER.
