Reduction is a radical act. Designer Luis Frey has applied it to the most elemental form of domestic design: the vase. Khora Vase is designed to hold a single flower, nothing more. An object that isolates, frames, and places one floral element at the centre.

CNC-milled from solid aluminium and finished by hand, the vase measures 150 × 242 × 26 mm: a slender presence, almost a frame. The anodised, hand-polished surface delivers a material quality that contradicts the coldness of metal. A system of interchangeable needles, included in the box in various sizes, allows the support to accommodate different stems, letting the empty space around the flower become part of the composition.

The name derives from ancient Greek: Khôra describes an invisible, formless space that allows things to take shape without having a shape itself. A philosophical concept here translated into object form: the vase as interval, as condition, not as container.

Khora Vase was presented during 3 Days of Design 2026 as part of Deoron.
