Form&Seek London Design Fair2017
Form&Seek will be part of Dutch Pavilion at London Design Fair on 21-24 September 2017
Form&Seek exhibitions always show a consideration to new crafts, material and processes.
With this upcoming show Form&Seek explores the theme of "Openness" where we focus on what designers with a vision of across borders and cultures, make and design in order to shift attitudes and cultures for the a more inclusive future. Form&Seek explores the idea of Dutch design, not through a national lens but as an attitude and way of thinking.
For the first time ever Form&Seek launches its own collection during London Design Festival as well as a producing and selling platform, enabling consumers and retailers to purchase original and innovative crafted goods from a curated collection founded and run by designers.
The Form&Seek collection focuses on new developed processes and contemporary, globally local craft techniques. Interesting, innovative materials and processes play a key role in the pieces by Form&Seek. Each item tells a story through the way it has been made or the impact it has on our daily lives.
Our new collection expands on a wide range of crafted products from conventional products prototyped with new technologies to products that play with natural formations and uses of material. Each thought provoking, poetic design object has a strong character and personality with the personal mark of the maker.
Twisted Cases
The twisted cases are inspired by the beauty of the species living in the deep ocean. The perfect geometry and proportion of the sea snail and the different sea shells was the fuel of the project.
Thanks to the irregular pattern, the pieces can be made of a single piece of material. The dynamic shape can open through the "S" zip, which hugs around the form.
The original work was made in 2013, and now they come back in a new unexpected scale and in a contemporary materialization. They are all unique and handmade, using tech fabrics, like dyneema, tyvek and nylon filled with down.
You can use these playful objects as storage or as an accessory. Attention, you may find some surprise inside!
