Resting Bird
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 Birds are ornamental ceramic figures in two
different sizes. Their peaceful presence 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. |
