Collective Design's curated exhibition, Collective Concept, featured 13 contemporary designers.

Every year, Collective Design curates a group of contemporary designers to reveal their latest works and ideas. This year?s curation, collectively debuted as Collective Concept, featured 13 designers: Allied Maker, The Coast, Coil + Drift, Crosby Studios x Opening Ceremony, Farrah Sit, Fort Standard, GRADUAL, Jeff Martin Joinery, Moonish, Rhyme, Slash Objects, Vipp, and Wallpaper Projects.

Inspired by the historical sacredness of totems, Allied Maker presented an illuminating set of three large totem fixtures created in stone, glass, and wood that honor the connection between makers and materials.

The Coast Studio balances form and weight with a new lighting series called Either/Or, named after the book by Søren Kierkegaard and consists of three lamps for nightstands, tables, and floors. The fixtures spark an interplay between user and object: touch controls the lighting but because of the design, the light responds back by rocking back and forth like a cradle.
Coil + Drift showcased the arched June Floor Mirror carved from walnut wood, the Cirrus Double Pendant made of cast resin and mirror-polished chrome, and the Soren Dining Table in ash wood and black leather.

Crosby Studios collaborated with Opening Ceremony to create a playful collection of furniture, lighting, and objects inspired by a hand chair replica by Pedro Friedeberg.
