Zieta – The Rubins

About Zieta

Zieta’s main goal is to deliver uniqueness and customization in design and constructions while keeping the production, transport and warehousing innovatively efficient. This is how he imagine the future world: Light, durable structures of customized applications produced on demand out of one-of-a-kind parts, yet efficiently.

Zieta use computer controlled production process. Customized pattern, customized form, customized function, one-of-a-kind product and outstanding precision are what they deliver. You will find all of this philosophy reflected in their products. Zieta research, Zieta discover new possibilities, Zieta play with forms and deliver a beautiful, innovative, surprising outcome to people who love design and who care about the design development.

01. Nucleus – Mirror as an object – More than just a mirror

Nucleus is the impressive multi-element mirror. This object, exceeding archetype of a common mirror, has been made of several elements of polished stainless steel, covered with a special coating that creates a gradient composition of exceptional depth and unparalleled reflections on their surface.

02. G-tables

Zieta use parametric design software to generate G-Table form. Modifying a few variables lets him create a miniature model as well as a huge pavilion. Delicate structure of table legs may become stocky and dominating. All those factors cause G-Table to be not only an effect of the process, but also a process itself.

03. G-tables - form

G-Table’s base consists of parabolic forms. Made with FiDU technology, it reminds of vines or tree roots. Nature symbolizes a constant changeability and harmony that comes out of it. Diverse structure of G-Table refers to both natural forms and processes.

04. Chippensteel

Chippensteel from Heat collection – a chair of unique, inflated shape that went through the process of manual technique of thermal coloring, which brings out the hidden colors of steel.

05. Uniqness of FiDU technology

Design of Chippensteel 0,5, although optimized for mass production, maintain the uniqness of FiDU technology. Every chair has one of a kind details and folds that show us the true properties of used steel sheets. This is what we call “the controll of lost controll”.

06. NAWA

An architectural sculpture by Oskar Zieta, has been nominated for the European Union Prize for Contemporary Architecture – Mies van der Rohe Award 2019 – one of the most important and prestigious architectural awards in the world.

07. Tafla O2 Mirror

Mirrors from the TAFLA collection come in numerous shapes and sizes: TAFLA O, TAFLA C and TAFLA Q and IQ. Some of them are characterized by a geometric simplicity and respect for proportions, some are distinguished by a soft line of organic form.

08. Red Rubin

Ruby red in the center and dark, almost black at the edges – the Red Rubin mirrors refer to the colour of the planet Mars and to one of the most precious cardinal gemstones on the planet Earth, the blood-red coloured ruby.

09. Dark Matter

A transition between deep dark black finish and transparent lacquer creates an effect of tint dispersion from the edges of the object to its center. From black, to grey tones, the colour disappears and leaves the way to the pure polished inox steel.

Oskar Zieta

Architect, founder and CEO of Zieta Prozessdesign. Born in 1975, he graduated from the Swiss Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule in Zürich.

Has been awarded the AUDI – Mentor-Price 2011, the Red Dot Award 2008, DMY Award for Innovation in production process 2008, the YDMI 2008, the German Design Council Prize 2009, the Forum Aid Awards 2009, technology Award – Materialica 2009, MUST HAVE Design Łódz 2011 and was nominated to the “Schweizer Design Preis” 2009 and the “Dobry Wzór” 2009. The Wire Magazine called his designs “furniture of the future”.

Prozessdesign

His designs carved out their way into numerous prestigious collections including Centre Pompidou in Paris, the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, Zurich Design Museum and the Baden State Museum in Karlsruhe. He calls his attitude towards design Prozessdesign and it is the name of his two studios in Wrocław and in Zurich.

FiDU technology is an innovative method of changing bits to atoms.

Today’s world is overflowing with unnecessary and intrusive data. We puts emphasis in its production processes not just on using less material, but also less data.

Zieta Prozessdesign uses precise robots and organised tools to create an effective and sustainable production process. Thanks to the programmed process and excellent understanding of the material, sheet-metal, the designer can pass on some of their competencies.

WIR - The tallest sculpture in Warsaw and the first manifesto of FiDU technology made on such a scale.

What potential lies in steel? How light will be the architecture in the next century? How to transport large steel structures on Mars? In what process will society shape? These and many other questions correspond to each of Zieta’s next project

The free deformation is the heart of FiDU. Zieta’s technology shows the true face of the material that decides itself on its final form. Free deformation allows you to create unique pieces. This is a continuation of the craft, in which the material and the craftsman taking its toll on the created object giving it a uniqueness

Architonic concept space III on IMM Cologne

The Architonic Pavilion has been designed and produced by Zieta Prozessdesign in FIDU technology. FIDU allows to:

– create unique and individualized forms and produce them cost-effectively;
– create light and efficient constructions;
– increase ecology and cost-efficiency of steel-objects production.
