ALOTOF designs for longevity—quality takes time.
A reduced material palette lets material quality lead while keeping forms clear and at human scale.
Natural materials and simple geometries set the tone, so proportion, light, and touch remain the focus, and the aesthetic stays calm rather than performative.
Production follows a small-scale model. Lower volumes with specialist workshops keep processes traceable, tolerances tight, and finishing consistent from prototype to final inspection.
ALOTOF leads with handcraft: brass components are primarily sand-cast, then refined and fit-adjusted piece by piece; surfaces are tuned to light and touch—polished, brushed, or hand-aged.
Glass shades are mouth-blown or kiln-formed and annealed, with wall thickness calibrated for light performance, yielding soft, even illumination with controlled glare and clean transitions. Subtle marks and tone shifts are treated as material evidence, settling into the object’s character over time.
