Eric Trine Los Angeles studio
16 / 25

A double octahedron plant stand made of brass and copper. Being in LA has allowed him to expand his use of metal. “It wasn’t until moving back down from Portland that I had the resources to do copper plating, brass plating, and chrome. If I stayed in Portland, there are all of these production constraints. I would’ve had to be a studio craft person and have a small shop. But being down here, I have all of these resources.” Case in point: Trine was able to launch the gorgeous copper version of his steel frame Rod + Weave chair in 2014.
