Future Perfect is unveiling a new collection of collectible offerings at this year’s Design Miami. The collection includes 30 unique pieces that explore mixed materials and how they can alter the design process, including a revamped version of Seungjin Yang’s beige loveseat. The new version of the iconic furniture offering uses resin-cast balloons to create a playful sofa design. The collection also features a ceramic standing mirror with lamps designed by Floris Wubben.
“Encompassing pieces that convey [our] signature curatorial sensibility with its emphasis on nuanced material investigations that beckon discovery through intimacy and tactility, this presentation sees the artists pushing the limits of their own craftsmanship,” The Future Perfect commented.
Design Miami will run until December 4.
