The Making: Slot Workstation
To celebrate the launch of our latest collection, Slot — we explore behind the scenes at how this range is handcrafted by artisans using natural materials.
Built to deliver an elevated experience for work and life, Slot is created using American Oak. As ‘work’ transforms, Slot embraces this change and its flexible design allows users to configure for both the home or office.
The Slot table is made from crown cut veneer where the log is sliced parallel to the centre of the logs growth rings. Crown cut veneers have a strong grain pattern highlighting the materials natural variations.
Veneer matching then occurs to identify how individual leaves will be joined together on the face of the panel. Table tops are then set to ensure component veneer patterns match across multiple sections.
Once the veneer is set, the table tops are sanded by hand to prepare for polishing. NOMI uses a commercial grade polyurethane based finish that provides protection from day-to-day use while allowing the natural beauty of the timber to shine through.
Handcrafted by artisans, Slot makes use of large scale, monolithic shapes that represent form and presence. Solid edges have been integrated to protect from day-to-day use and the online configurator allows you to select from eight different finishes to suit your space.
NOMI connects Architects and Interior Designers directly with the workshop, allowing you to leverage online configuration to create a more tailored space that is unique to you.
Integration into manufacturing enables you to customise pieces to meet the specific needs of your individual project.
Slot — for the modern workspace.
