The Non Conformist Carbon Collection – Text by Tara Meeran.
In keeping with Okha’s enquiring design philosophy, the Carbon Collection comprises six objects which challenge preconceptions of structure, beauty and imagined realities: Black Rain, High Voltage, Law & Disorder, Mondo, Rock Sculpture & Omega. These six designs bring into question aesthetic conformity and the presupposed need for order and equi-balance. Contrary to the accepted norms of balance and symmetry, these designs revel in asymmetry and a non-conformist provocation where form is unpredictable, non-uniform and beauty a multi-lingual dialogue between mind and heart.
