Modern Bookcase from "Fancy-Routine" Collection by Supaform

About the Item

This piece is part of Sight Unseen’s 2020 offsite offline coverage. Supaform’s latest collection, a shelf, chair, coffee table, bench, and lamp called Fancy-Routine and debuting at Offsite Online, possess similar characteristics to those in his imagined renderings: clean, curvy lines; off-kilter forms; and a resistance to revealing how exactly they come together. Composed of what he calls “rusty metal” (in reality, powder-coated metal with speckled Kvadrat upholstery), Scherbakov says his starting point for the collection was the IDEA of degradation, how even a shiny chrome surface can be eaten away if it’s left long enough, a concept he describes as getting rid of the “fancy husk.” This shelf can be used as a bookshelf or a decorative neon lamp.

Supaform Chaise Longue from "Hidden Entourage" Collection
By Supaform
Located in Florence, IT
Russian designer Maxim Scherbakov‘s new exhibition at Rome’s Contemporary Cluster gallery, he pushes that idea to the extreme: What if design could be all about emotion, and little else? His barely functional pieces, and his general conceit, feel uncomfortable at first — we’re not sure we want to live in a world where design is purely an aesthetic indulgence — but in an era when furniture is increasingly difficult to distinguish from art, it does feel in some ways like we already are. And the ornate backdrop of the gallery’s home, the 14th-century Palazzo Brancaccio, serves as a potent reminder that it’s possible we always have. Maxim Scherbakov, who works under the studio name Supaform, says that he developed the new collection “as a result of a careful visual search for the frontiers of comfort,” seeking to celebrate “beauty for no reason,” he says. His floor lamp has no bulb, his coffee table is too bumpy to hold a glass upright, and his desk has trick drawers and a gap in the middle where its writing surface should be. Yet his various seating elements look no less functional than, say, Rick Owens’s, and Scherbakov has a compelling raison d’etre: Also a longtime painter, he pulled all of the works directly from his canvases, making them a literal elision of the two-dimensional realm and the three. If he can celebrate fantasy and feeling in one of them, he wondered, then why not the other? This wooden sofa is a part of the 'Hidden Entourage...
