Designtex

Oppositions: Forms & Fabrics is an invitation to consider upholstery’s transformative power. We assembled an eclectic collection of furnishings ranging from 1850 through 2014, and—in collaboration with Designtex—each piece was reupholstered with a new textile. These were presented in vignettes staged on thick felt covering the floor and walls, offering the viewer a respite with an invitation to sit and relax.
