# Weft Jacquard Furniture Vonnegut/Kraft & 'Slow and Steady Wins the Race' Designed 'Dépaysement' By Amy Duong | Published 2018-08-09 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dpaysement References: [design-milk](https://design-milk.com/depaysement-vonnegut-kraft/) & [vonnegutkraft](http://vonnegutkraft.com/vonnegutkraft-x-slow-steady-wins-race-x-weft/) Brooklyn-based designers [Vonnegut](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ribbon-pull)/[Kraft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mayoverse) worked in partnership with Slow and Steady Wins the Race on the new Dépaysement furniture collection. The new range boasts a minimalist design and highlights the product's upholstery. The designers created the fabric materials using Weft, which is a new tooling system that allows users the capability to design jacquard fabrications online and order their own creations on demand. The Dépaysement collection is comprised of two benches, a screen and two ottomans. The formations of the offerings respond to the design cues that exist within the color palette, [geometric patterns and upholstery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tait), rather than the other way around. All of the pieces are held in place within a black wooden foundation.
