-----
Kern is the first product made of Outt, a marble-based material created to utilize waste from quarries in Northern Italy. This innovative process reuses not just marble chips (often used in terrazzo), but also marble dust as a binder. The result is an upcycled material with a high marble content, around 85%, and a character all its own.
Simple yet dynamic Kern’s presence is bold, with generous volume and minimal components : just four stone slabs. Yet its simplicity is deceptive: it is a precise, expressive design that creates meaning beyond function.
A furniture piece that evokes wonder, Kern feels both ancient and contemporary. Its material weight contrasts with a gesture of lightness and elegance. It is massive yet graceful, primitive yet refined, echoing everything from prehistoric monuments to Arte Povera. The table’s form shifts with the viewer’s perspective; the coffee table, for instance, resembles a three-dimensional letter, linking to Förster’s fascination with typography. “Typefaces are like tiny sculptures, their imperfections make them both beautiful and legible,” she says. This idea of human imperfection is central to Kern, where even the breaks are handmade.
Monica Förster is one of Scandinavia’s most influential designers. Despite a wide range of styles, her distinct design voice is always recognizable. Whether in carpets, glass, cutlery, hand-carved bowls, or furniture for Europe’s leading manufacturers. A five-time Designer of the Year in Sweden, Förster is represented in the permanent collection of the National Museum in Stockholm, with exhibitions at MoMA, New York, and the Victoria and Albert Museum, London. In collaboration with Fogia, she has created Kern, an expressive coffee and side table series.
Fogia is a Swedish furniture maker that blends thought-provoking design with timeless materials and expert craftsmanship. Rooted in the traditions of Scandinavian design, with a hint of Italian elegance, they create furniture that speaks to both heart and mind. Most of their pieces are made in their own factory by skilled craftspeople who understand what it takes to build something lasting: carefully selected materials like leather, wood, steel, and high-quality fabrics, and combining them with the knowledge and care to shape them properly. The result is furniture that feels both timeless and personal, made to inspire, and made to last.
