The GEO collection is a contemporary dining and living collection made in solid Sheesham. It is the result of an exploratory journey into traditional Indian timbers. Examining the characteristics of Sheesham, Mueller incorporated those qualities into the design- and making-process. Trying to reject the typical Indian use of Sheesham as large pieces of wood, he analysed the strength and grain structure and, using high quality manufacturing, showcased exposed structural edges and thin timber sections to create a refined and well-balanced contemporary collection for Capsbury, pairing design with Indian craftsmanship.
