TREKU – Hall 3.2 Stand D034
Traditional and contemporary. These are the two souls of the Basque country-based furniture manufacturer TREKU, which was first established in 1947 by skilled cabinetmaker Jesus Aldabaldetrecu. The company, which is now one of the leading brands in the contemporary furniture industry, is recognized for practical high quality sideboards, tables and beds which can be customized to meet the taste and needs of clients. All the products are made from solid wood that is sourced exclusively from reforested woodlands. The careful execution of furniture results in the timeless and sophisticated quality of each product, featuring unique and playful elements of colour and intrigue.
The LAUKI and AURA collections has been updated with the introduction of new finishes, legs and configuration possibilities.
LAUKI by Ibon Arrizabalaga. It is made up of multiple boxes that can be arranged in endless configurations: aligned on the floor, piled up or wall-mounted. Pieces are available in a wide range of sizes, finishes and functions (drawers, doors, open modules, etc.) that makes it possible to create endless configurations.
This way, with just a few different modules, you can design a solution for an entrance hall or any other room in the house. And by putting a larger number of them together, you can create a TV stand, a sideboard or even a filing cabinet for the office.
Although visually simple, the design includes some complicated features, such as the discreet half-centimetre frame that surrounds each box incorporating the push-to-open mechanism.
AURA by Angel Martí & Enrique Delamo. AURA has been conceived as a collection of sideboards and furniture for stylish living and dining rooms and entrance halls. Its retro design is inspired by the Nordic design culture, which is well-known for subtly combining tradition, natural textures and large doses of modernity.
The result: a collection full of memories that gives off a very modern aura. The metal and wood legs have been specifically designed to enhance the retro and timeless look.
The finish is very important: walnut and oak wood with a hyper-natural finish can be combined with a range of lacquers in neutral and earth tones that match perfectly wood.
