Across town from 100% Design, Shoreditch was buzzing with gallery shows, storefront installations and a pair of LDF staples: Tent London and Super Brands. Occupying the industrial space of Old Truman Brewery, the exhibits spread across two floors showcasing everything from slip-casted ceramics to paper furniture.
One of the most visually striking pieces in the Super Design Gallery was Kishimoto Design’s free-form Yumi Chair (pictured above), sculpted from ribbons of ash veneer. According to the designer, “By driving wedges into bound layers of veneer, I could freely manipulate the curvature of the wood without being hindered by clamps or molds.”
