A design studio of innovative solutions, projects and experimentation, daast is the combined design thinking of Andrew Southwood-Jones and Alexander Kashin. Winners of the SOYA Qantas program, the designers met while studying architecture at UTS. Recognising a shared fascination for putting unusual materials to innovative use, they soon started working on design outcomes together.
“Defining the emergent design acumen of daast is a smoothly elegant object aesthetic of tonal nuance, textural finesse and very clever thinking. “ Gillian Serisier, Co-Editor (Inside)
‘Numeral’ house numbers (2013), cast concrete, stainless steel back plate.
A playful and somewhat irreverent approach has been taken to the utilitarian role of numbers as functional signifiers. Distorted and allowed the specific qualities of materiality to play a role in their visual form, the 3D numbers in cast concrete explore a stylised architectural aesthetic commensurate with the material’s strength.
