The future is here with the Carpenters Workshop Gallery’s presentation at this week’s Design Miami/ Basel. The London originated gallery joins other design talents in Basel, Switzerland June 14-19 to unveil a glimpse of bold design works from their artistic roster.
Entering the gallery’s booth, one is pulled toward Mathieu Lehanneur’s lighting sculpture hanging above, Les Cordes. It serves as a continuation to Château Borély’s commissioned series at Marseille’s Decorative Arts Museum and a prelude to the Lehanneur’s solo exhibit “Srping.”
Also on view is work by Italian artists Vincenzo De Cotiis and Giacamo Ravagli. De Cotiis recycles luxury materials and creates masterful designs like the three-legged console constructed out of silver and brass plates. A high-grade Levanto marble illuminates from the Barometro lamp, shining light on Ravagli’s geometric style.
In addition, the gallery is showing Cocoon, a table from the Spanish designer Nacho Carbonell, Carapace Cupboard with Bar by Maarten Baas, a bronze bureau table by Australian designer Charles Trevelyan, and vibrancy from Vincent Dubourg’s Bhanga Bronze contrasts the smoothed texture of Temptation by Wendell Castle.
