View this post on Instagram
French-native Leo Orta and Denmark-born Victor Miklos are the creative duo turning wasteful material into odd, yet whimsical, furniture. The Design Academy Eindhoven graduates share many similarities but what brought the two together was their anarchic spirits. Their feed spotlights the pair’s sculptural and decorative roots, and each of their objects challenges functionality and elusive narratives. It’s vibrant, bold and artistically compelling.

Inventiveness runs deep in the veins of a Master’s candidate at the Yale School of Architecture, graphic designer and writer Levi Shaw-Faber. Last fall, on a whim and in good nature he created a curvy table for a friend. The first one was wobbly, but the second was steady and with a helping hand, his dining furniture business was born. His account displays the various ways to decorate with his colourful coffee, dining and side tables.

Swedish-Tunisian contemporary artist Zahra takes shelter in her Parisian atelier. With inspiration from mid-century modernists, she uses oil paint to filter her personal experiences through abstraction. Her social platform exhibits bold uses of colour – reds, oranges and yellows with the occasional light blues, pinks and violets – but the main aesthetic of her work is a tribute to femininity.
