Dedicated to ail the travellers on the world, Globe was the first container cabinet included in the Limited Edition Gufram collection, as well as the furst container created by the Dutch duo Studio Job for an Italian company.
The globe that rotâtes upon itself at the centre of the cabinet represents the desire to escape and also to bring into the house the idea of travel: realized of soft polyuréthane and entirely hand painted with Guflac -the particular paint patented by Gufram that makes it possible to make polyuréthane look like leather while maintaining its flexibility and softness - the globe recall a dreamlike world thanks to its archetypical shape and the stylized silhouettes of the continents.
The soft globe is the trait d'union between the historical Gufram production and a new type that cornes into being with this project. The container function is carried out by a lacquered wooden structure that exalts the globe's polychromy as well as the ironie soûl of this spectacular piece of décor.
Globe has had ail the world talking about it through the covers of some of the most important design magazines, as well as being selected as one of the best 2014 products by AD Germany. In Job and Ninke's home study - the founders of Studiojob - Globe is the protagonist and because of this is was on the cover of Elle Décor China.
