一位领先的工业设计师和法国稻草工匠相遇,五年后,他们成为了设计合作伙伴。Arthur Seigneur和Adam Goodrum的情况就是这样,一封来自Arthur的冷冰电子邮件,将两人联系到一起。Arthur是一名法国侨民,近期移居至澳大利亚。
A leading industrial designer and French straw artisan walk into a bar and five years later they emerge as design partners. This is how it was for Arthur Seigneur and Adam Goodrum, except instead of a bar, it was a cold email from Arthur, the French expat who had recently arrived in Australia.
墨尔本设计周期间,A+A在Tolarno Galleries画廊展出了三件令人难以置信的家具。17世纪的稻草镶嵌工艺在全世界只有25位工匠能够掌握。其中一位是Arthur Seigneur,据他所知,他是唯一在澳大利亚执业的律师。它即将成为一种失传的艺术。

Using just a scalpel, ruler and wood glue, Arthur has painstakingly covered the surface of each piece with more than 4,000 slivers of reflective rye straw, imported from Burgundy and hand-dyed in custom hues.
Adam和Arthur把颜色和图案结合在一起,形成了一个层层叠叠的万花筒,灵感来自一朵莲花的对称造型。镶嵌参差错落的颜色,赋予每件作品强烈的活力,以及微妙的奇幻纹理。
