pThe work stood out from the crowd by placing an emphasis on faceted and sculptural forms. They also had a very eye-catching centerpiece (an adjustable height table built around an elaborate mechanism) that the designer playful referred to as “crankenstein.”/p

pTheir Shard Planter Bench (pictured top) was of particular note, as its pointed and slender features, inspired by ocean jettys, shifted dynamically as you walk around it. Also featured was a new chair released under their outdoors line, Tides. The chair, made of white powder-coated aluminum, reinforced their fascination with atypical geometry executed with an attention to cleanliness./p
