Broom unveils 10 year anniversary collection on a custom-built carousel |
|
British designer Lee Broom celebrated his tenth anniversary with the launch of his latest collection.
The limited edition collection, entitled Time Machine, honours Broom’s 10 year career and features a range of design highlights from his previous collections, reimagined in new finishes and materials with an all white palette.
The colour scheme was selected to create a cohesive uniformity across the collection, and give the pieces a clean, modern aesthetic.
The collection includes the award winning Crystal Bulb, the Bright on Bistro chair, the Carpentry Console and the Drunken Side Table.
Broom also unveiled an exclusive time piece, a monolithic grandfather clock also named Time Machine. Handcrafted from Carrara marble, the clock has solid brass hardware and features a traditional clock mechanism and pendulum.
The collection debuted at Milan Design Week and was showcased on a spectacular custom made carousel, set inside a disused vault in the Milano Centrale station, to add a sense of drama to the exhibit.
Broom says: "As I was looking back on the pieces I had created over the past 10 years and deciding which ones to display, I felt like it was almost too easy to simply display my work in a retrospective style. I think the concept of the carousel together with the really unique space that was the raw disused vault and the hauntingly beautiful soundscape created a very poetic and moving showcase.
Broom adds: “As a designer, if you can realise 90% of the vision you had in your head, then you have done your job and I felt we absolutely achieved this."
