About the Item

‘XiangSheng Side Table #2' is an art furniture piece in oxidized and brushed bronze that celebrates the interplay between structural form and space. It is part of the ‘XiangSheng’ furniture collection by acclaimed studio Design MVW, founded in Shangai by Chinese designer Xu Ming and French architect Virginie Moriette. Known for its sculptural, architectural forms and ability to subtly connect contemporary Western and Eastern aesthetics, Design MVW has won numerous awards in Asia and Europe, including the Architectural Digest AD 100 Design Talents Award (2015 and 2013); Wallpaper* Design Award (2014); ELLE Decoration International Design Award (2013). At the heart of ‘XiangSheng’ is a celebration of the random power and beauty of the void; an exploration into how solid and void can join in perfect unity to become functional, useful, and inspirational. The use of oxidized bronze on the solid surfaces – a verdigris patina – transforms and deepens the hue, adding a living dynamic to the design. Conversely, brushed bronze lining the inner side of each void pays tribute to the energy and strength found therein, remaining constant over time. The ‘XiangSheng’ collection also celebrates Design MVW’s cross-cultural philosophy. In the West, a solid object is seen in terms of material and form and admired for that. In the East, the concept of the void is meaningful, and can be traced back to Taoist philosophy to represent the spirit empty of thought, a quiet, patient place from which the subliminal can flow. As such, their design sensitively crosses cultures, connecting Eastern and Western aesthetics and practices in a collection which has earned mutual appeal. ‘XiangSheng Side Table #2‘ is produced in a limited edition of 8 + 4 AP.
