Arik Levy, a French-Israeli designer, is known for his innovative and multidisciplinary approach. This approach combines art, architecture and design to create unique and timeless products. As far as collaboration with Ton goes, he designed the Split collection, the world’s first to split a single piece of wood lengthwise in two and bend it in two directions to carry a comfortable upholstered seat. The unique Split chair designed by Arik Levy elevates an ordinary seating area into an extraordinary experience. This innovative approach elevates traditional materials to extraordinary masterpieces, combining modern aesthetics with master craftsmanship and offering a novel design combining unique wood bending technology with functionality. In addition to this collection, he also designed the Bloom tables, which are available in a variety of designs and bring nature-inspired elegance to interiors.
