"Comfortable, durable and adaptable leather has long been a preferred material in furniture design. The British designer Simon Hasan uses boiled leather to add an enchanting elegance to vases, pendant lamps and stools, and even combines it with palladium and 22-carat gold leaf in his cubist-like mannequins for Fendi", writes Marie Le Fort in her article for Air France Madame. Le Fort also showcases Formafantasma's project 'Craftica', the Italian design duo's series of stools, lighting, vessels and tools originally conceived in collaboration with luxury goods house Fendi for Design Miami/Basel 2012.
'Craftica' is on show at Gallery Libby Sellers February 1 - 28, 2013.
