Completed projects Project Hriby Client Javorina Year 2018 Description Coffee tables Hriby for furniture company Javorina are inspired by Slovak plant empire. We took direct inspiration from the most popular mushroom - mushroom. Boletus is a popular delicacy for all passionate mushroom pickers and is characterized by its full and identical shape and pleasant taste. We have also tried to achieve this symbiosis in design.
