First Place for “Five Dimensions” – Designer eng. Kaloyan Vasilev & Manufacturer Haute Charpenterie by KV Design
The gold medalist in the Chairs and Tables – Realized Products subcategory within the Professionals category at the 12th edition of the “Bulgarian Furniture of the Year” competition (2026) is the Five Dimensions project by designer Kaloyan Vasilev and manufacturer KV Design. Five Dimensions is truly a piece of art. The bench emerges from solid walnut, suspended in resin and bound by a single line of stainless steel. More than a bench, it is a shifting experience: each angle reveals a new truth, a whole dissolving into fragments, fragments converging into form. The piece plays with perception, creating illusions where matter bends into light. It is not simply an object, but an exploration of how reality refracts—where design becomes art, and the visible becomes infinite – simply a sculpture with function.
