Protective structures
Protection through smarter structures.
Studying how internal structures improve protection while reducing the need for plastic, fillers and unnecessary material.
In Progress
Defined by tactile qualities, bold forms, strong proportions and substantial weight.
THE TACCA STANDARD
Materials are chosen for their natural character and physical qualities, allowing their tactile nature to remain intact.
Objects are shaped through bold geometric forms to create a confident physical presence.
Visual proportions are carefully studied to create objects that feel bold, balanced and substantial.
Objects are designed with substantial weight to feel solid and reassuring in the hand.
Decoration is reduced so material, geometry and proportion remain the focus.

In Progress
Material over print.
Surface depth transforms visual and tactile perception without relying on ink, colour or decoration.
In Progress
The strongest forms are often the simplest.
Exploring why simple geometric forms create greater presence, confidence and visual substance.

Character without decoration.
Architectural concrete achieves strength and presence without relying on applied finishes or decoration.
In Progress
One material. Two lifecycles.
A single material can provide protection while continuing to serve a function beyond packaging.
In Progress
Character through restraint.
Studying how birch combines visual restraint, natural strength and understated character.
In Progress
Weight changes perception.
Examining how physical weight shapes expectations of quality, value and craftsmanship.
In Progress
A clean tear is designed.
Thoughtful opening mechanics create more controlled, consistent and satisfying interactions.
In Progress
A finish should reveal, not conceal.
How different finishes influence the appearance, touch and natural character of materials.
In Progress
Less refined. More character.
Studying how natural paper surfaces create a richer tactile and visual experience than highly refined finishes.
In Progress
Protection without concealment.
Translucent materials protect while revealing the material, form and character beneath.
In Progress
Every dimension influences the whole.
Studying why certain proportions create forms that feel naturally confident and balanced.
