The TUBES

Art for Interiors - a modular system of lightweight, reflective tubes transforming interiors into dynamic, colorful three-dimensional designs.

The TUBES by artist and designer Burkhard Schittny are three-dimensional art objects as well as modular, lightweight surfaces that combine colour, light and reflection. They create scalable wall and space solutions that bring depth and elegance to contemporary interiors.

Transforming space through color and reflection

The TUBES combine design, lightness and modularity. Highly transparent coloured foils are joined with mirror foils in a sandwich process and formed into tubes. The parallel arrangement creates a relief-like, mirrored surface with a three-dimensional depth effect. The more than 300 available colour shades allow almost unlimited design variations.

From standalone art to full-scale installations

Whether as a stand-alone art object or a large-scale wall installation - The TUBES can be used flexibly: in interiors, shop windows, furniture or as room dividers. The modules are not limited in size and enable extensive wall designs - filling the room without visual heaviness. Their low weight allows them to be used even with limited ceiling or wall load.

Functional elegance for prestigious interiors

The reflective surface conveys high quality without solid material. UV resistance and temperature stability ensure long-term quality. Thanks to their modular design and easy installation, The TUBES are particularly suitable for prestigious areas such as retail spaces, hotels or restaurants. The three-dimensional surfaces are decorative, individual and functional - a rethought alternative to classic wall design.
