To create Tamashi , Refin worked on reduction , intending to obtain the quintessence of wood : the image of cleanliness comes from the absence of knots and the choice of dense , fine , and regular veins , resulting in a seamless , linear , and fluid surface . The result is a modern , elegant , and natural simplicity that stems from a skillful graphic and colour balance .
The collection is barely moved by a few flashing effects , and is featured by a deliberate absence of marks and contrasts .
The surface is not flattened , but rather the minimal and refined style is emphasized , allowing for the definition of large and seamless scenes . Tamashi shows a delicate shading effect , originated by the veining pattern and subtle nuances ; the matte finish and light structure accentuate the effect of warmth and essentiality , rich in natural charm .
The palette expands from the traditional woods to include seven colours that Refin carefully studied – ranging from light to dark – to give the collection a new modernity . The evocative names chosen for the shade – Sugar , Vanilla , Cream , Tea , Walnut , Caviar , and Pepper – provide an unusual synaesthesia that conveys pleasant sensations .
