The Ladies & Gentlemen Studio is quickly making an impact on the industrial design industry. Founded in 2010 by Dylan Davis and Jean Lee, it offers people practical pieces of furniture that are steeped in modernity and playfulness. For instance, its Ovis Lounge Chair atypically combines materials to create a seat that is visually stimulating not to mention physically comfortable.
Based in Seattle, Washington, the Ladies & Gentlemen Studio essentially create functional art pieces for the home. There is no other way to think of these home furnishings. Trendland points out that though the studio offers everything from jewelry to furniture, it particularly shines when it comes to lighting. Their unassuming automated details set them apart from other light fixtures.
