About the Item

Ron Arad is a British-Israeli designer known for transforming industrial materials into striking, sculptural furniture and architecture. His experimental approach was the subject of a major retrospective at MoMA in 2008. Characterised by his distortions of steel and aluminium into sinusoidal, elliptical, and oval forms, the Round Rail bed frame is typical of Arad’s early style. Two enamelled tubular steel semi-circles flank the frame. The bed includes wire-mesh panels, Kee Klamp fittings, and six horizontal strut supports.

Grace Prince Held Absence No.2 Coffee table UK, 2025 AP 1, Edition of 10
Located in London, GB
Cast bronze, low-iron glass and iron. The organicism of the cast wood fragment juxtaposes the rationalist framework of the iron. A creative patination process includes the application of bronze dust from the foundry floor. The piece is part of Held Absence, Grace Prince’s largest furniture collection to date addressing a long-held fascination with absence and fragility. The pieces develop the designer’s free, gestural approach into six assemblages in bronze, steel and wood. Designed exclusively for Béton Brut, the works emerged from a period spent living in a traditional house just north of Kyoto. The collection is handmade to order in 12 weeks. Grace Prince (born in London, 1992) is a multidisciplinary designer based between Zürich, Milan and London. A graduate of Central Saint Martins, she worked as the assistant designer to Vincenzo De Cotiis...
