Resting Cat
Numerous
works by the creative duo Front are devoted to the systematic observation of
sleeping or hibernating animals. This fascination inspired their design of a
group of slumbering creatures – Resting Animals – whose poses exude a serene
tranquillity. The Resting Cat is an ornamental ceramic figure with a peaceful
presence that goes beyond the decorative to communicate a deep sense of
contentment.

Front |
Sofia Lagerkvist and Anna Lindgren – both from Sweden – founded the
Stockholm-based design studio Front in 2004. Their work constantly questions
the design process, whether through their ‘collaborations’ with animals or
their experiments with advanced technology like in the project Sketch
Furniture. They have developed objects for major design brands across the world
and are represented by Galerie Kreo in Paris and Friedman Benda in New York.
Their work can be found in the collection of the Vitra Design
Museum, the MoMA of New York and the Victoria & Albert Museum
in London. |
