Five ways to style a sphere
1. Alone, dead center on a mantel. 2. Beside a stack of books, as a full stop. 3. In a bowl of smaller objects, as the anchor. 4. On a windowsill where it can catch raking light. 5. In pairs — one Onyx, one Ivory — for the full day-and-night effect.Wrong answers: none. It's a sphere. Read more...
Color story: Ivory
Ivory is the quiet one. It photographs like white, but set it against a white wall and it glows faintly warm, like paper that's been read.It's also our most unforgiving finish — every speck shows during sanding, so each Ivory piece gets a third pass. If you only own loud colors, consider this your palate cleanser. Read more...
The studio has a second bench
Twelve months ago, one of us could sand the week's output in an afternoon. That stopped being true around March.So: a second workbench, a proper curing rack, and — at last — a dedicated shelf for seconds and color tests. Same shapes, same colors, roughly double the pieces per week. Thank you for getting us here. Read more...

Why we only make shapes
When we opened Formhuset this summer, the most common question was: "but what are they for?" Nothing. That's the point.A circle doesn't need a function to earn its place on your shelf. We wanted to make objects that are finished the moment you look at them — no batteries, no app, no manual. Just form, weight, and color.We launched with eight shapes in six colors, each cast by hand in our studio. Start with one. See where it leads. Read more...
