Works of «Surfaces»

In design, surfaces and material qualities are just as important as form and construction. The type of surface influences how a shape is perceived and supports the function of a chair, a teapot, or a sneaker. The spectrum of surface finishes that can be found in exemplary objects in the collection ranges from painted, varnished, anodized, pigmented, poured, chrome-plated, or mirrored, to matte, polished, chased, brushed, hammered, perforated, punched, flocked, veneered, or laminated, or even left untreated.
