At Close Quarters
New arrival Thibault Van Renne has opened a new showroom in the North Dome: the Belgian designer behind the brand specifically wanted to create a space where people could be encouraged to see, touch and admire his handcrafted rugs (pictured top) up close.
To showcase these sophisticated works of art for the floor, design duo architect Oleg Klodt and designer Anna Agapova were invited to implement a gallery-like concept for the space. Their own O&A London collection of furniture and lighting is also presented, complementing the distinctive look. Meticulously conceived lighting like this ‘Avior’ pendant (pictured bottom) can be traced back to the luxury of the art deco and late-modernist movements: every piece is an eloquent, original expression of architectural sensibility.
