Prices for the pieces range between $17,100 and $104,500.Last December, Hadid’s Aqua table, also manufactured by Established & Sons, sold at auction in New York for $296,000 - a record for a piece of new contemporary design.Seamless went on show at Phillips de Pury’s New York gallery on 29 November.

It is a built manifesto towards the potential for a new language of design and architecture, which is driven by the latest in digital design processes and the most cutting edge manufacturing techniques. The range - which, besides the four interlocking Nekton stools, includes shelving designs called Serif (shown below); a lounge chair called Gyre; a chaise called Crest and a cabinet called Swash - will be exhibited in Milan this April by Established & Sons. | |   The rhythm of folds, niches, recesses and protrusions follows a coherent formal logic. With the formal dynamic of a fluid mass, we are able to emphasize the continuous nature of the design and the smooth evolution between otherwise disparate elements. The evolutionary lineage of the pieces is easily discernable through re-visitation of past projects such as Z-Scape (2000), Ice Storm (2003), Aqua Table (2005), the Hotel Puerta America interiors (2005) and Elastika (2006). Seamless represents the culmination of this morphological series and a new beginning in terms adding new surface sensations.   The design language explored within this collection of pieces emphasizes the usage of complex curvelinearity, seamlessness and the smooth transition between elements. A formal integration of diverse forms allows individual furniture pieces to be considered within the overall mass of the ensemble. Whilst individual elements are nevertheless morphologically affiliated, they can be read not only as a whole, but as loose fragments that drift around the scene as if captured in a magnetic field.   The pieces, initially morphologically conceived, are shaped further by typological, functional and ergonomic considerations. However these further determinations remain secondary and precariously dependent on the overriding formal language of the collection. A margin of strangeness invites a stimulation that has evolved between the morphogenetic logic and adaptations with regard to functional affordances. The Seamless collection embodies the organic design paradigm and evolving architectural language of Zaha Hadid Architects. The New York exhibition at Phillips de Pury & Company will be our first integrated collection and a prefect continuation of the Zaha Hadid retrospective at the Guggenheim.” Link：http://www.dezeen.com/2007/03/28/seamless-collection-by-zaha-hadid/ | |   Oculus / Torus, Zaha Hadid, Covent Garden Super Design 2007 | | Dallas Museum of Art Eolia   | | Dune Formations Furniture       | | Aqua Table ,Design for Established &Sons , Display in Milan 2007       | | Design fr Established & Sons in Milan furniture fair 2007     | | Design for Established&Sons - Nekton Footstools -W87xD50xH51   | | Design for Established & Sons - Serif shelving   | | Glacier Sofa,2000   | | Moraine   | | Iceberg sitting for Sawaya & Moroni, 2003     | |    Fjord chair for Moroso | | Bowl   | | Zaha Hadid Design for Hotel Puerta America Madrid | |   | |        | | KF Elevator Lobby,8FL       | | KF Elevator Lobby,11FL   | |    | |    | |   | |   | |   | |   | | Z- Island Kitchen The "Z.

Called Fade, it will be exhibited at the Serpentine Gallery in Kensington Gardens, London, next week, alongside other chandeliers from the Swarovski Crystal Palace collection.  A temporary canopy designed by Hadid will also be built on the lawn outside the gallery to host the Serpentine Summer Party on 11 July.
The canopyy was commissioned when the gallery realised that the pavilion designed by artist Olafur Eliasson and Kjetil Thorsen of Norwegian architects Snøhetta would not be ready in time for the party, which is the gallery’s main annual fundraising event and a fixture on the London social scene.
The party is sponsored this year by (surprise!) Swarovski. | | |
