Nuclée
Original Art Pieces
Nuclée is currently produced in France in a limited series of 12 art pieces, numbered and signed, handcrafted from natural materials. It is sold in its custom packaging, a jute sheathed power cable, a certificate of authenticity and a designers’ note.
Nuclée was born in Taiwan from an encounter with the Kavalan aboriginal people, experts in the use of banana fiber. These pieces revalorise a considerable residue unexploited: the flesh of the banana tree. This new material is highlighted in walnut shapes, inspired by the banana tree structure.
Nuclée has won several international awards: Best of Year Award by Interior Design (New York 2020), Green Product Award (Berlin 2021), One & Twenty Finest Design (Frankfurt 2022), Le French Design 100 (Paris 2022) and Singulart Awards (Paris 2023).
