LaSelva and Iva?n Zu?n?iga design range of concrete home accessories
Spanish-Mexican studio LaSelva has released a collection of small concrete accessories for the home in collaboration with designer Iva?n Zu?n?iga (+ slideshow).
The range designed for Mexican homeware brand Ma?s features a variety of vases, wood and concrete trays, geometric candle holders, and concrete plates.
The vases are made up of a concrete base topped with a metallic rim, which can be removed to fill the bottom container then replaced on top of the vase.
The decorative trays, called Flota, are made of three sizes of concrete plates that each fit onto a wooden stand. The bases are made of walnut and oak wood, which are designed to be easily removable for cleaning and storage.
The candle holders were "inspired directly by the work of the architect Fe?lix Candela in its forms and materiality," said the designers.

They are made of cast concrete, and have a hexagonal base. When several of the candle holders are laid out together, they tesselate to form a continuous pattern.
The concrete plates, called Tenue, are only six millimetres thick. They are perfectly round, and were designed to "search of the limits of concrete". They are as thin as possible, while retaining their solidity.
All of the objects are crafted in grey, black, and rust-coloured concrete, while the accessories that accompany them come in an understated material palette of wood and metal.
