Stan Editions’ Latest Launch Is a Dalliance of Silhouette and Scale
Stan Editions expands its creative universe with a new stacked ceramics collection, positioning everyday objects as icons of creativity.
When Belgian design label Stan Editions introduced its first collection, CANDL STACKS, in 2021, it redefined the candle as more than a utilitarian object. Through modularity, color, and play, the brand invited audiences to engage with the candle as sculpture – an everyday object animated by imagination. Now, with the launch of the STACK VASE and DIFFUSER VASE SET, a new ceramics collection, the brand expands this creative universe, continuing to position design objects as cultural icons that merge surface beauty with discursive depth.
For many makers like Stan Verstraete, the artist and designer behind this creative platform, objects carry meaning not only in their material presence but also in the layered dialogue that surround them – themes like production, representation, use, and even critique.
Through this lens, the previous release CANDL STACKS is more than stacked wax forms: they embody potential and the performative acts of rearrangement enacted by their users. Each recombination becomes a moment where the audience co-authors the meaning of the work.
“These small gestures – resetting a coffee table with a pop of color, experimenting with layers, or even trying out combinations that feel slightly absurd – are what make the collection so playful and joyous,” Verstraete says.
