“The truest form of human expression is through dance
and music and this furniture collection is based
on the fluidity and energetic spirit of Art Moderne.”
Spark Is All About The Energy That Ignites The Creative Process.
Welcome to our Dance adventure. Let the rhythm set you free.
It is the journal of movements not yet expressed and strength,
grace and fluidity not yet interpreted. It is a celebration not just of
the uniqueness of cultural experiences that move us, but of the
captivating and mystical process that sets inspirations free and
allows them to twist and turn into unforgettable art forms. In this
issue, we explore the spark that allows us to communicate ideas and
emotions with our body movements instead of our words. Dance. It
is a language that comes from the depths of our soul and allows us
to be uninhibited and expressive like no other art form allows.
Legendary choreographer and dancer, Merce Cunningham, once defined a dancer’s ecstasy as
“the possible gift of freedom, the exhilarating moment that this exposing of the bare energy can give us.”
Dance is recognized as one of the oldest forms of art in the world.
It connects us to one another, even if unconsciously, and is our creative inspiration
for this edition of Spark. Just like dance, furniture can be an expression
of ideas and emotions that begin swaying and dancing in our minds,
until they solidify into a form that begins to tell a story.

Dancing is all about movement and expression.
Being graceful is an important aspect of many forms of dance
and is attained when each dancer’s step and
body gesture look effortless. With great energy and
excellent posture, a dancer’s movement
will result in a spectacular performance.

CHAINÉ BED The gentle curve of the headboard acts as a cocoon, creating a
welcoming feeling of an embrace. This design is inspired by the gestures
made by a dancer’s arms and torso. The seam detail on the headboard
is also inspired by the grace of a dancer’s asymmetrical pose.
Strength is the foundation
for all dynamic movement in dance.
Words like powerful, explosive and commanding
are used to describe many of the greatest dancers,
and would not be possible without this integral attribute.
Strength and a strong core also allows dancers to perform
at their peak, while exhibiting a sense of lightness.

BOX STEP DESKThe design of this desk represents the balance of two key
components to any dance performance—lightness and
strength. The two legs represent a graceful extension, while the
edges and hardware appear seamless, like a dancer’s transition
from one position to another. The asymmetry and gently curved
edges create a softness and feeling of movement.
CHASSÉ CHAIR This unique design represents the dancer’s body; its physical
strength and sinuous form. The legs are powerful elements that make
a statement. Organic and free flowing, the piece maintains a sense of
structure and poise from top to bottom, with the upholstery wrapping
the top of the chair to the gentle cross of the legs at its base.

It can be difficult to wrap your head around the many forms
of a dancer. Telling a story with raw passion and every fiber
of their being can be both breathtaking and astonishing.
Every subtle or exaggerated motion can be sensual
or moving and compels us to yearn for more.

PIROUETTE MIRRORThis two-way mirror was inspired by the fluidity of a twirl
and tulle of a tutu. The asymmetry of the piece represents the idea
that dancing, like life, is not symmetrical. Pierre Chareau inspired the layer of
stacked onyx. His designs represent elegant interpretations of basic forms
and simple shapes, with depth and art deco influence.

Dance is the human body expressing a choreographed routine of leaps,
turns, jumps and a series of movements. To do this, dancers require strength,
endurance and agility, which when combined, allow the dancer
to exhibit a fluidity that can transport an audience to another place and time.
