It is located in Gallery Assab One and the focus is to explore the idea of reappropriation. The show highlighted [furniture and lighting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unform-studios) that have been created in their studio along with collaborative work. Aligned with the exhibition at Milan Design Week, reappropriation nods to what is noted as “the act of taking a fragment or element from its original context and giving it new meaning or significance within a different setting.” Two of the most notable pieces from the shoe include the Rabbit chair and the Silhouette Chair with [curved silhouettes and minimal design aesthetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/monochromatic-seating).
