Despite having the reputation for being tough and durable, metal is also a surprisingly malleable material that, when molded by the right artisan, yields stunning works of art. This week, we explore five creations by designers Mark Albrecht, Mathieu Matégot, Pedro Ramírez Vázquez, Atelier Oi and Dieter Rams, all of which use metal as the key ingredient. This collection of expertly crafted pieces blurs the line between industrial and sophisticated design, making them ideal for the modern home.
