The Natural Room: Gallery Exhibition

17 September - 7 November 2020
Installation Views
Overview

THE NATURAL ROOM collection is an approach to living through design that respectfully connects us to the natural world. It aims to create interiors that are of our moment – to focus our thoughts and reflect on our lives - while embodying a long-term vision of how we might live in the future. The international artist-designer-makers included in the collection embrace ideologies of sustainability, conscious sourcing, and collaborations with local communities, to create beautifully crafted furniture pieces and sculptural objects in materials such as wood, jute, sisal, willow, and stoneware.
