The piece
Feel the calming embrace of nature’s spiral.
Helix I draws you into a world where nature’s quiet strength is the focal point. As the spiral of ball-moss cushions unfurls gracefully across the grass-green Iceland moss, it evokes a sense of balance and tranquility. The depth and texture offer a refreshing escape from the mundane, suggesting a perpetual journey of form and movement. Whether framed in black or dark wood, the piece stands as both a nod to and a quiet rebellion against the chaos outside its borders.
Helix I is brought to life through a meticulous arrangement of grass-green Iceland moss and varying shades of ball-moss cushions. Each piece is handcrafted to order, capturing the grace of nature in a form that transcends seasons. Crafted in our Graz atelier in Austria, no two pieces are ever completely identical.
No water, no light, no maintenance needed. Simply keep it out of direct sunlight and away from sustained high humidity.
Helix I introduces a soft sound-dampening surface and invites a serene natural rhythm into your space. Experience the calming effect of biophilic design.

Every Waldart palette starts outdoors: which greens sit next to each other, where light catches, how much empty space a surface needs. The first two images are nature studies for this design family; the others are photographs from our walks. The panels themselves are made from preserved moss.
The bark of an old sweet chestnut does not run straight up: its furrows wind slowly around the trunk. Every turn comes back to the same side, a little higher. Helix grows the same way.
Old man's beard has wound itself around a hazel twig, turn after turn, each at a different distance. At the end of the stem, the feathery seeds of the year.
Only the tips catch the light. That is why the brightest green appears sparingly, as an accent rather than a surface.
Moss never stops in a straight line. Colour fields fray into each other, and we let them.
Water makes the spaces between stones visible. Empty space is part of the composition, not what is left over.
