Description

For those who prefer lounging in solitude, Moooi’s extravagantly conceived Aldora also comes as a chaise longue, with a wing for either the left or right side. Inspired by the bounty of nature, designer Cristina Celestino translates the graceful shape of calla lilies as a softly curved sofa, imbued with the eye-catching style of her native Milan. Characterized by its exuberantly sculptural backrest while still maintaining a relatively compact footprint, the seating proves adaptable to a range of environs in a lavish choice of custom upholstery materials.

Moooi

It rhymes with “boy,” and a child’s wonder and uninhibited creative impulse is at the heart of this Amsterdam design house co-founded in 2001 by Netherlands design star Marcel Wanders. Then as now, Moooi’s aim is to crack conventions of modern design, providing a platform for the most experimental creatives around the world, including Studio Job, Bertjan Pot, Front and Neri&Hu, as well as creative director Wanders himself.

Some of Moooi’s beautifully eccentric pieces like the charred-wood Smoke Chair; the nearly life-size Horse Lamp; and Iconic Eyes, a dazzling hanging light made of BMW headlights, have become design icons. “We are not the kind of company that decides to produce a commercial chair and then contacts the right designer,” says Robin Bevers, who took the reins as CEO in 2015, after co-founder and Dutch design entrepreneur Casper Vissers stepped away. “It’s rather the other way round: they contact us.” From hotels to homes, the flights of fancy in furnishings, wallcoverings, rugs, lighting and décor from Moooi continue to marvel.
