In an interesting mash-up, French brand LAQ has teamed up with Darcel creator Craig Redman on a capsule furniture collection, centered around his by now popular Darcel character.
“The meeting of the founders of LAQ, Raphaël and Pascal, with Craig Redman, gave birth to a Darcel shown in 3D, a product of the encounter of contemporary culture and ancient techniques. Made of resin, wood and painted metal, mother-of-pearl and eggshell, this high definition version of Darcel, coming from a psychedelic universe, hip and disillusioned, also offers hidden storage in its eye, like the secretive stately furniture of the seventeenth century. A radical confrontation of periods, styles and ideas!”
The outcome of the collection are two stools and a sculpture, all three being showcased soon at colette in Paris. The Parisian concept store will also sell them.
