British Designer, Faye Toogood, launched her third furniture collection, Delicate Interference: Assemblage 3, exclusively with Phillips de Pury & Company during the 2011 London Design Festival.
The series examines iridescence as a natural optical force through new and re-contextualized works in bronze, aluminum, steel, glass and resin. By a touch of alchemy she uses man-made materials to create a natural phenomenon, mimicking nature’s ability to attract and protect through the refraction of light.
The collection comprises pieces such as this ‘Cage For Birds’, a steel mesh dressing table with three pivoting mirrors backed in iridescent glass, and an oil-finished steel tabletop. It also features a recessed leather jewellery box and nine blue cast-bronze hanging hooks. Toogood’s designs will be on show until 4 October at the Phillips de Pury space at Claridge’s in London.
