    PRESS RELEASE
    On the right, Hex Dining Chair from Julian Mayor.

    For their concept Pop Up Design Gallery at Argent, Matter of Stuff commissioned Raw Edges to design an installation that could unite MOS unique three-fold expertise: commissioning design, researching materials and technologies, and showcasing designs from world-renowned design brands.

    The installation consists of a repeated one single element, a wooden dowel suspended from the ceiling by a blue string. This multiplied element creates a tactile invitation to the space as well as an architectural tool that defines the space; creates partitions and a cast background to the exhibits.

    Wing Wall piece by Julian Mayor; Cowrie Lounge Chair and Focus coffee Table by Made in Ratio

    Setting airy partitions opens new possibilities, it defines areas and creates division, allowing to display the collection in different caves within the vertical infill but it also lets the visitors see what behind the partition, let them wander through the wall if they wanted.
    The wooden dowels are hanged next to each other will probably create knocking sounds like an instrument reminding us the familiar experience of a child walking and creating a rhythm with a stick along a metal railing fence.

    “The installation consists of a repeated one single element, a wooden dowel suspended from the ceiling by a blue string. This multiplied element creates a tactile invitation to the space as well as an architectural tool that defines the space; Our approach to the design of the Matter Of Stuff pop up store is to keep everything as raw as possible; the space left as honest and is nearly untouched, the walls are exposed, the floor is bare as well as the ceiling above the fixings.”

    Designing a pop-up store comes with concerns; what should be a justified carbon footprint of a temporary space and how to rationalise the economic burden in an effective way. Raw Edges approach to the design of the Matter Of Stuff pop up store is to keep everything as raw as possible; the space left as honest and is nearly untouched, the walls are exposed, the floor is bare as well as the ceiling above the fixings. A minimal lighting installation designed by SEAM gracefully supports the wooden dowels installation by Raw Edges.

    “We are excited to present our independent concept gallery, which for the first time truly showcases the breadth of what Matter of Stuff does. It is a collaborative exhibition and is a testament to what is achievable when talent and enthusiasm from so many different creatives across the world come together.”
    Simona Auteri & Sofia Steffenoni
    co-founders of Matter of Stuff

    Rock Floor Lamp - Rock & Oyster is a new lighting collection designed in a remote collaboration between Salsabeel Amin in Egypt, and Kawther Alsaffar in Kuwait. The lighting fixtures celebrate and contrast the rough dual-casting with the delicacy of the hand-painted, blown-glass, developed with local artisans in both nations.
The objects expose the expanding opportunities provided by combining a thorough understanding of traditional craft, with technology and design. A material-driven approach, supports the local abilities, through simple and minimal interventions in form. This suggests an open dialogue between the 3D printed digital fabrication of the Oyster, with the rough nature of the found rocks.

    Bicoca Portable Table Lamp - The Bicoca is born with the optimism of brightening life and accompanying the good times, wherever you go. This new colorful, lightweight portable lamp projects an intimate light that adds warmth to all your personal spaces.
Made of polycarbonate, Bicoca begins with an overlay of basic geometric figures, with a tiltable shade to direct the light. Three separate accessories increase the applicability and versatility of the lamp. A powerful magnet can be affixed to the bottom of the fixture, allowing you to place it to metal surfaces -even vertical walls- defying gravity. An armchair accessory drapes over armrests, sofa backs, or headboards, so you can bring your Bicoca to all your personal reading spaces.

    Grappa Pendant Light - Like a bunch of grapes on a vine, nature creates beauty through variation within repetition. The bunch consists of a number of the same shaped grapes. But each grape varies slightly in size to the next. We are attracted by the subtle variation in the silhouette. While developing our concept, we found that utilizing just two forms is enough to keep this subtle variation. The two forms, have similar shapes and are made of translucent glass, allowing the LED light source to glow from within. Our concept makes it possible to create everything from small lighting items all the way up to monumental lamp constellations. Importantly, there is also the possibility of customization for architects, allowing them to decide their own combinations and arrangements.

Please enquire for more information and finishes.

    A Second Life at Sketch

    Commissioning one architecture and three design studios, Matter of Stuff presented an array of experimental new works made from a single raw material. In place of recycling a waste material through mulching, Matter of Stuff commissioned four designers to reinterpret, explore and experiment with dowels from a past exhibition.
