#sculptural-form

Our first acquisition was Autolykos (2019) by the American artist Ron Gorchov. We were immediately drawn to his use of bent-wood canvases. They sit somewhere between painting and sculpture, which we've always found compelling. There's a quiet tension in his work, especially in how he handles colour, that really stayed with us and ultimately shaped how we think about collecting.

SO KOIZUMI DESIGN has developed Resonique, a ladder that explores the relationship between functional structure and sculptural form. The project draws on the structural logic of ladders while referencing the flowing geometries associated with brass musical instruments. Through this combination, the object shifts from a purely utilitarian tool toward a design piece that engages both function and spatial presence.

Situated near a sparse forest with intriguing vistas over the suburbs of Nicosia, this house stands in a deliberately ambiguous way: Rather than adopting a conventional residential typology that opens outward to offer uninterrupted views of the surrounding landscape, it rises as an austere, introverted box.
