The final installment of the design-forward Planar 1/1 exhibition by Secret 7'' is about fundraising for mental health. The project taps into designers Es Devlin, Jean Jullien, the Chapman Brothers, Gavin Turk, Jeremy Deller, Pete Fowler, Hsiao-Chi Tsai & Kimiya Yoshikawa, Francis Richardson, Semple, and James Joyce. The artists create entertaining and whimsical design-forward turntables that are meant to be sold at an auction. The illustrated pieces of music tech are every audiophile's dream as the imagery is vivid and unique, as well as one-of-a-kind. The stunningly artistic turntables are currently on display at London's Ace Hotel.
Secret 7'' is dedicated to promoting social good and wellbeing through fundraising for mental health charity Mind. The proceeds from the auction will be all donated to the good-hearted organization.
