Alexander Lamont
British designer Alexander Lamont has always been interested in enigmatic textures, forms, and materials; ‘surfaces that call out to be touched. The journey to make such furniture, lighting, and objects in the 21st century - requiring time and hard-won skills for each piece - took him to Thailand where he has built celebrated workshops. Alexander Lamont makes collections of furniture, lighting, objects, and wall panels with unexpected natural materials and refined hand techniques that have been used for centuries in Europe and Asia. Our minimal, organic and tailored designs show a contemporary reverence for rituals of craftsmanship and the energy that human skills impart into every piece.

Galeria by Antonio da Motta is an architectural, versatile and luxuriously upholstered daybed. It brings a contemporary functional form, accented with elegant details, to living or bedroom spaces. Hand-tied and sprung, the seat is comfortable, minimal and keeps its form beautifully. The upholstery sits on a raw shagreen platform that is raised by sculpted bronze legs, while semi-precious buttons hold the round cushions in place.

A glowing evening sun shimmers. Hewn legs cast in lost wax bronze support a dramatically elegant top.
