Armadillo presents Agra Forma a refined exploration of materiality, form and the poetic potential of the handmade through a collaboration with acclaimed Australian industrial designer Tom Fereday.

Anchored by Armadillo’s iconic Agra rug, the capsule collection comprises seven sculptural furniture designs that seamlessly merge textile and timber craftsmanship. Piece by piece, the disciplines of rug-making and fine woodwork intersect in a shared language of minimalism and tactility. The raw beauty of sustainable materials – including pure abrash-dyed wool and American red oak – are transformed into vessels for innovation that transcend the ancient and modern.

Celebrating purity of form and the nuance of texture, each piece articulates a quiet architecture – inviting a sensory dialogue between surface, structure and space.
The collection will be on display at Armadillo’s Fitzroy showroom for the duration of Design Week, launching with an exclusive event on Thursday 15 May. Immerse yourself in the seven striking, tactile designs that blur the line between softness and structure. It’s design after dark – raw, refined and not to be missed. Doors open from 5.30pm until late on Thursday, 15 May.
