It honors simplicity and materiality at the forefront. The capsule is comprised of impressive furniture designs and this marks the third furniture series by MONO Editions after collaborative projects alongside Liege and Papierre. The capsule draws inspiration from both the past and present to form products that are refined yet feel rooted in historical techniques. The silhouettes can be defined as both sharp and soft simultaneously as each piece nods to the power of [modularity](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modular-lighting-instruments). Wooden slabs are used and cut to a standard thickness in order to create a cohesive visual aesthetic. Overall, the capsule feels [functional and sculptural](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lightness-of-form) for those who are looking for a bit of edge to their space.
