Objects

An examination of things worth understanding and keeping, taken on their design, construction, purpose, engineering, materials and history. Nothing is carried by a visible name: if a piece needs its maker printed on it, it is not here. Objects is an editorial examination, not a shop.

Everyday Backpack, 20 litres

Peak Design

Carries a rangefinder, a folded knit and a day of work. One small woven label, and nothing else on the shell.

Design Objects

Throw, cashmere

Brunello Cucinelli

Woven in Solomeo, undyed, finished by hand. Over the reading chair, it settles the room.
