Marie Dessuant

These are a few collections from Paris-based designer Marie Dessuant 

Xià is a bench inspired from the Chinese ideogram xià means low... I love the hot pink contrasting colors, of  wood and white and the hot pink.


 Duvet is a hybrid between a duvet, a pillow and a kimono. How nice would this be to wear?! super cozy and definitly a more chic version of a snuggie. 


                           Etagère 'Y' is a easily movable bookshelf …so innovative, love the pastel colored shelves.



Last photo is of the Soft Fold which is a temporary space which asks the users to take time out of their day to be in the area of duvets, a reading table, a low bench and a lamp.
I really like her use of contemporary shapes and beautiful pastel color. Her design outlook is so inspiring. She aims to create a new way of interacting with ordinary objects, not just showing, or imposing too much on the viewer, but giving new solutions in a narrative way.

Faye Toogood

studio toogood townhouse interior

After reading an interview in Apartamento Magazine of Faye Toogood, i decided to look more into her work. I am so inspired by her  design aesthetic. Such beautiful geometric furniture, that she designs under her own name, she also runs Studio Toogood http://www.studiotoogood.com/) , she styles photo shoots, does interiors, and makes sets for fashion shows. I really love the design of the townhouse in the first few photos. There is such a poetic flow in her work. She is toogood, like her last name…which suits her work perfectly well.
