In the ever-evolving realm of design, striking the perfect balance between tradition and innovation can be quite an endeavor. Nevertheless, New Works, a groundbreaking design company, has truly mastered the art of crafting pieces that eloquently bridge the gap between the past and the present, light and shadow, design and art. Their unique approach pays homage to the rich history of Scandinavian craftsmanship and materials while embracing contemporary shapes. I once had the pleasure of immersing myself in the captivating world of New Works, and what I discovered was a harmonious fusion of their collaborations with celebrated designers and artists, resulting in inspiring creations that celebrate both the sensual and the bold.
New Works' philosophy is deeply rooted in the Scandinavian tradition of craftsmanship and a deep reverence for authentic, tactile materials. This profound connection to their heritage permeates every work they create. By honoring their roots, New Works rejuvenates classical design principles with a modern twist, striking a delicate balance between tradition and innovation, all while respecting their design lineage.
One of the most enchanting aspects of New Works lies in their unwavering commitment to partnering with a diverse group of esteemed designers and artists from around the world. These individuals share New Works' passion for sculptural forms and the use of genuine materials. Together, they embark on creative journeys that give rise to designs that are not only visually arresting but also emotionally resonant.
The collaboration between New Works and these talented artists and designers breathes life into a broad spectrum of pieces that challenge the norms of conventional design. By consistently pushing the boundaries of what's achievable, New Works continues to redefine the limits of creativity, crafting pieces that captivate the senses.11/01
Everyone and their mother, yes, including me, seems to be embracing the spirit of Christmas, even though we've barely left October behind. I don't know why or how; perhaps that's a topic for researchers and psychologists. Maybe (more like definitely) there's an underlying reason behind our yearning for a more 'joyful' time, but I'm here for it.
I've already indulged in a bit of Christmas shopping myself. After at least 8 years of getting a real tree in the tropics every year, I finally caved in and got myself a faux tree (which sounds better than 'fake,' for sure) for sustainability reasons. Also, well, it's 2023, you know?
I've also spent hours swooning over glass baubles and dreaming of a country Christmas, just like in the pictures above, with a Dutch baby pancake baking in the oven, and more. The anticipation and excitement are real and hard to resist, so have a merry holiday time, everyone.
