BCXSY Looks to Inspiration in the Everyday in Reframe + Pipelines
BCXSY reveals two collections ? Reframe + Pipelines ? that capitalize on using common materials in fresh ways.
Design collaborative BCXSY never disappoints with their design philosophy that invites people in through emotion and human experience. Today we’re sharing two furniture projects they’ve completed in 2022: Reframe and Pipelines. Both rely on elements that might be considered mundane and give them a fresh spin.
For Reframe, commissioned by DESIGNEW and designed in collaboration with MAGISTER.UT, BCXSY approached known, familiar forms as something fresh and timeless.

A side table is created by turning around an axis, both halves can then be connected for a full circle tabletop or used individually.
