Maarten Baas
Dutch designer Maarten Baas was born in Germany in 1978 and moved to the Netherlands as an adult. In 2002 Baas graduated from the Design Academy Eindhoven with two concepts, one being the now famous Smoke Series, where Baas charred furniture and treated the torched skeletons with a coating, turning them into useable pieces of furniture again. In 2005 he began collaborating with Baas den Herder and Studio Baas & den Herder has made it possible to further work out Baas' unique, handmade pieces and produce them on a larger scale. Here we feature the Smoke Series from Moooi.
