Tom Dixon will be presenting a collection of utilitarian furniture at the Milan Design Week next month. Are these a reflection of the current economy? Is utilitarianism the newest trend? Their simplicity is refreshing, but wasn’t utilitarianism already a trend in the 90′s (all those cargo pants and (ugly) Prada trainers)?! Maybe it’s just cyclical.
Included below are: ‘Spot Tables‘ (cast iron bases with glossy enamel tops), ‘Flouro Shades‘, ‘Screw Table‘ (cast iron screw base with marble top), ‘Pressed Glass Tube Pendant‘, and ‘Block Table‘ (copper plated legs and heat-resistant granite top).
