Just when you thought you'd hung your 'trade show' boots up, along comes another one and in this case, they've saved the best till last. The fourth Super Design exhibition launched today in the basement of the grand Victoria House, Bloomsbury, London and runs for the next three days until the 17th October. Super Design is curated by Patrick Brillet from the furniture store and gallery The Apartment. The exhibition boasts unique and limited edition pieces from international galleries such as D&A -Lab, Tom Dixon, Quadrige, Mitterand-Cramer, Herve Can der Straeten and Vessel Gallery and of course The Apartment.
Highlights for STYLE NV were the stunning (if no doubt a little uncomfortable) Brodie Neill's curvaceous chair, the fun and colourful 'Low Tables' by Johnathan Monk at D&A Lab and Studio Job's 'Industry Table' at Mitterand & Cramer - a quirky black wooden table with white maple inlay. It was also great to see Tom Dixon's new pieces as I missed his showroom at London Design Week. Tom's rusty 'Swing' and reclining chair were a fabulous contrast to all the polished surfaces. Infact, well polished woudl be good words to describe the exhibition, shame Patrick Brillet's people skills were not as polished as the furniture on display!
