design mvw present xiang sheng at galerie bsl paris
Shanghai-based studio Design MVW are showcasing their new collection of bronze pieces, 'XiangSheng’, at Paris’s Galerie BSL in an inaugural exhibition outside of China. Left: 'Side Table #3', 2015. Right: 'II Shelving Unit', 2016
Founded by Chinese designer Xu Ming and French architect Virginie Moriette, the duo merge their cultural backgrounds to form abstractly crafted forms. Pictured: 'Console,' 2015
Comprised of tables, a sideboard and shelving, Design MVW presents a mix of clear-cut ends, large curvaceous arches and abnormal silhouettes, so their 360-degree perspectives are constantly changing. Pictured: 'Side Table #3', 2015
'II Cabinet', pictured here, plays with the natural hues of the material. The sleek, brushed shimmering bronze contrasts with the dark brown finish, which itself appears almost wooden
'XiangSheng’ is now set to travel to PAD Paris and Design Shanghai – both are held next month. Pictured: 'II Console', 2016
