ABSTRACT

Evan Pavka writes about the work of Assa Studio and how the use of digital technologies has allowed Assa Ashuach to create objects that take on soft properties. Since the early aughts, Ashuach and his eponymous research and design practice, Assa Studio, have investigated the limits of the latest techniques of digital fabrication across a range of housewares and furnishings. Often, his objects coalesce these various spheres of production, becoming records and stories of a process of continued structural, material and conceptual optimization.
