As a follow up to the opening of our London gallery we are very happy to present the group show « to be continued » with pieces from our emblematic designers including: Hella Jongerius, Studio Wieki Somers, Alessandro Mendini, Pierre Charpin and Doshi Levien. We will showcase in this exhibition a piece from our brand new collaboration with the Doshi Levien: the console « Chance Encounter ».

« Perugia » Coffee Table, Alessandro Mendini
Alessandro Mendini‘s coffee table is inspired by the city of Perugia in Italy. With a fiber glass structure covered in ceramic mosaics gilded with gold leaf, the piece evokes the lights and harmony of the city depicted by one of it’s famous painters: Le Pérugien.

« Gemstone » Side table, Hella Jongerius
Reproducing the natural beauty of stones like agate and malachite, Hella Jongerius“Gemstone” side table is composed of layers of transparent and opaque jewel-toned resin and wood.

« Chance Encounter », Doshi Levien
Material elements of the console intersect as geometric forms in composition, at the same time belonging to each other and yet visually deconstructed. A marble top is placed over a solid wooden frame that vanishes under a brass-rimmed circle– the piece seemingly floating off the wall. The wooden frame reappears in the form of telescopic legs, a further play with geometry, a square is rotated while another square extends.

« MAKOTO » floor lamp from the MITATE Collection by Studio Wieki Somers
Inspired by the Samurai culture and their fierce ethical codes, the MAKOTO light pole is one of the seven pieces from the MITATE collection. In Japanese makoto can be translated as the truth, which here takes the form of LED lights radiating against an aluminium lacquered shade.
