New/Relic explores the quiet architecture of touch: the handles, hooks and joinery pulls that anchor our domestic world.
These small points of contact are often overlooked, their presence felt more than seen, quietly shaping the rhythm of the everyday.
Designers are invited to reimagine these everyday fixtures as sculptural objects that blur the line between function and ornament.
Showcasing the work of designers and makers across disciplines, the exhibition traces how craft, materiality and gesture can transform the most utilitarian of fittings into intimate touchstones of daily life.
Participating designers include Carl Broessen, Jordan Flemming, Hunney Studio, Ka-Ra Studio, Kayleigh Haydon, Millie Savage, Minilo Studio, Studio Backcountry and Studio Ceravolo.
Participants
Minilo Studio
Minilo is an architecture and interiors practice that embraces the beauty and simplicity of maximalist reductionism, reducing the built form to its essentials to allow for customisation, reconfiguration and the rich layering of personal objects of affect within homes.Led by Isabelle Jooste, the studio explores materiality, spatial clarity and subtle ornamentation, creating environments that are precise, flexible and deeply responsive to the lives they hold.
Hunney Studio
Hunney Studio is an emerging interiors practice with bright ideas, a big heart, and a playful curiosity across disciplines.Led by Chiara Hunwick, the studio operates at the intersection of art and cultural theory, producing interiors and objects that are enduring, imaginative and as rigorously researched as they are deeply human.
