# Dark City-Inspired Furniture Natuzzi Italia and Marcel Wanders Introduce the Agronomist Range By Amy Duong | Published 2018-08-07 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/argonomist References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/collection-furniture-marcel-wanders-natuzzi-italia-inspired-gotham-city/) & [marcelwanders](https://www.marcelwanders.com/) Modern furniture label [Natuzzi Italia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/patrick-norguet-1) works in partnership with Marcel Wanders on the new Agronomist collection. The new capsule is comprised of four furniture pieces in total -- this includes the Barrow coffee table, the Furrow couch, the [Crate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crate-barrel-x-converse-furniture-collection) cabinet, and the [Peacock](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-incense-holder) carpet. This collection's design inspiration is drawn from the dark city of Gotham, also known as the alter ego to the bustling New York City. The Furrow sofa's iteration gets a shiny black leather finish with tattooed designs done through stitching and sutures. This piece boasts similar visuals to that of a leather jacket. The Barrow coffee table is updated with a dark beech wood material and has handles constructed with black leather as it all rests on top of wheels. The Crate cabinet is a black solid beech wood material with olive green leaves as a nod to Puglia and its original design. The Peacock carpet resembles a peacock's tail in a more abstract design with its mirrored monochromatic theme.
