MINIMALISSIMO EDITED
You can reach timelessness if you look for the essence of things and not at the appearance. The appearance is transitory—the appearance is fashion, the appearance is trendiness—but the essence is timeless.
– Massimo Vignelli
What's happening?
Hello. We've got something new for you... a beautiful bag available in our shop from today. It's called the Go Pack and it's made in collaboration with ODA. Call it a shoulder bag or wear it however you like, it's a small 2L bag that stores just enough for hikes in nature or the urban commute. Super practical and well protected. Take a look and pick one up. Now let's dive into some of our recent features.

Features
VOID
Created by Italian designer Simone Fanciullacci, Void is a collection of painted and spray-coated polystyrene sculptural low tables made exclusively for Studio Twentyseven.
TRIANGOLO CHAIR
Created by Danish furniture designer Per Holland Bastrup in 1989, the Triangolo Chair, produced by FRAMA, embodies a breathtakingly progressive, sculptural design. Defined by sleek lines and simple geometric shapes, the striking chair offers a unique seating experience, whether used as a desk chair or a unique display piece.
HRR CAFÉ
Designed by architecture studio BrCl, Hrr is a project that materialised with a client who held the desire to articulate the significance of the Han River. The white main colour complemented with mature wooden pillars is reminiscent of a ferry with sails. The bar table is also covered in wood stimulating images of a ferry.
BRITISH APPLIED DESIGN
Every country produces exceptional designers while some countries offer particular approaches to design with renowned craftsmanship and special materials. As part of our applied design series, we look at a selection of works of British designers spanning a range of topics within the spectrum of minimalism.
FZ1 STOOL
Combining classic elements with a modern graphic twist, the FZ1 stool by Jean-Baptiste Fastrez has a pretty strong character. Made for EO NEXT, the unusually shaped yet minimalist stool is made with a powder-coated steel frame with the seat a powder-coated Fine European Ash Wood in three variations.
