    Space for Life & Diggi Dot

    15 Jun 2015

    While putting together my Colour Book, I paid a visit to the treasure trove that is Space For Life in Howe St, Observatory, to see if there were any pieces that might work with the new Diggi Dot range. I chatted to Stefan Frylinck, who loved the fabrics and had lots of ideas. It was a good move, I reckon – just look at what resulted.

    Lampshades

    I’m in love with the way this row of 50’s Danish lampstands came to life after Stefan had these awesome lampshades custom made. That pleated one in the lemon / mint colourway of the Sway design is simply astonishingly lovely!

    Stefan also came up with a great idea of upholstering one of the custom-made Space for Life chairs in our Gridly print, in the fog / lemon colourway. I’m really in love with this chair, which also comes in a two-seater version.

    The brilliant thing about this design is that the cushions are loose, so it is the simplest thing to update your ‘look’, just by reupholstering the cushions.

    Stefan also got stuck into one of the vintage Danish chairs in the showroom, using the Sway design in signal / steel, and the Simple Stripe in signal red to make this signature piece. I just wish I’d had the foresight and taken ‘before’ pics!

    Visit Space for Life at 5 Howe Street, Observatory to see these pieces and so much other lovely furniture, and follow them on Instagram to see what’s new in the showroom.
