ABOUT THE EXHIBITED OBJECTS
Plié (2025)
The Plié product line features a room divider focused on versatile space usage in small apartments, offering the possibility of unique spatial configurations. The main material is felt, which is not only aesthetically pleasing but also highly practical: its curved shape and rollable structure allow for flexible spatial arrangements. Additionally, its sound-insulating properties enhance acoustic comfort, making it an ideal choice for modern interior design solutions.
MOPS. (2025)
The MOPS. chair reflects on the design legacy of Hungarian furniture designer Sándor Mikó. Its metal frame is inspired by Mikó’s fruit bowl design submitted for a competition. The reinterpreted structure is complemented by deep red velvet cushions, drawing from Mikó’s iconic “You + Me” armchair. The contrast between the raw, industrial welded steel and the soft, cloud-like cushions creates a dialogue between eras: the structural, function-driven past and the comfort-focused present.
