Feuilleté ChairBarley draff, Ash Ply-wood77/46 x 42 x 55cmG.Craigie£785 + p&p at point of saleThe journey of our Draff Material begins straight after the mashing or distilling process. The grain and botanicals are collected and dried out as quickly as possible in our workshop. Heat and high pressure are then applied to our raw ingredients. This process is a key factor in creating a dense and reliable material. Once pressed the outcome is a sheet material with a similar density to an OSB Board. The material’s final look varies depending on the grain or botanicals used. The heating process also influences the colouring of the material. With all of these factors each piece is unique. From pieces of furniture to decorative cladding, Draff can be used in a variety of design projects.Originally from Marboz in France, Aymeric Renoud is a Dundee based designer and fabricator. With a passion and interest in eco conception, Aymeric started to explore the possibilities of reusing the wastage from alcohol production as a material.
From his workshop Aymeric creates bespoke pieces of furniture as well as distillery and brewery collaborations.
