The Cell

The design for this sculptural concrete stand comes from Reinhold Stoll's interest in the enclosed space of cells and the atmosphere they convey. The object is executed in coloured concrete with a coarse grain, which was stamped into individual layers by hand. It consists of three blocks with two open joints held by a framework of eight continuous concrete iron bars, which also function as a stand. A small cell made of dark grey concrete with a smooth finish is embedded into the upper block.
