The Spomenik I by New Volumes™ is a highly personal piece designed by promienent Melbourne creative Marsha Golemac.
A pair of complementary forms, Spomenik Ⅰ and Spomenik Ⅱ are characterised by their graduated volumes, realised through the careful refinement of a single slab of raw stone.
Both pieces are inspired by modernist monuments built in honour of the historic troubles of the Balkan Peninsula, Marsha Golemac draws on a socialist utopian ideology to marry form and function.
As a bowl, vase or objet d’art, each piece references remnants of the past whilst speaking assuredly of the future.
The New Volumes™ Collection 01 – Elba™
The first New Volumes™ collection by Artedomus comprises of twelve uniquely beautiful furniture pieces born from a desire to inspire and enhance the everyday.
Each of the twelve New Volumes™ pieces have been created from the coveted Elba™ stone.
Millions of years in the making and excavated exclusivley by Artedomus from a single quarry in Greece, Elba™ is an immensly powerful raw material that commands respect.
In order to harness the sophisticated beauty of the Elba™ stone, Artedomus assembled a team of Australia’s finest furniture designers and creatives.
Lead by Creative Director Thomas Coward, the eight Australian designers chosen to bring the first New Volumes™ collection to life are Ross Gardam, Emma Elizabeth, Nick Rennie, Dale Hardiman, Marsha Golemac, Sarah King and Tom Skeehan.
When asked about the inspiration behind the New Volumes™ range, Artedomus Managing Director Phil Brenton states, “Our story begins here and stems from our travels and connections across the globe, through which we identified an untapped volume of story and space”.
Phil goes on to expand, “New Volumes™ was the idea born out of this void and has become a way for us to express ourselves through people, design, materiality and stories”.
The New Volumes™ Collection 01 by Artedomus is the perfect statement of beauty and a testament to precious Elba™ stone.
Each New Volume brings a sense of genuine pleasure to anyone who uses them.
