It is not every day that a person sees traditional weights made out of marble or a wall clock that looks like a sheet of paper, yet that is exactly what people will find in the Extra Ordinary Gallery. It is a collection of ordinary objects that have been given an artistic twist in order to help people wrap their heads around them in refreshing ways.
The Extra Ordinary Gallery features work from Fabrica designers including Dean Brown, Catarina Carreiras and Mariana Fernandes. It is comprised mainly housewares, yet a few unexpected products come into play as well including a journal collection, a sculptural frame and even a golden car holder. The Extra Ordinary Gallery spices up the everyday.
