Ruben van Megen invites users to co-create the Sandcastles homeware, which is launching for the VDF x Ventura Projects collaboration.

Exhibitor: Ruben van Megen
Project title: Sandcastles

Ruben van Megen is an interior and furniture designer based in the Netherlands.

He is introducing Sandcastles, a collection of reconfigurable homeware, for the VDF x Ventura Projects collaboration.

Sandcastles consists of a lamp, coffee table and candle holder, and is designed as a reference to Megen’s childhood memories of building sandcastles on the Dutch coast.

The products each comprise multiple parts that are made from sand. These are available in different colours and can be stacked and reconfigured in various ways to invite “customers to co-create the Sandcastles”.
