From tubular seats to chubby ceramic lamps, the neotenic furniture movement is showing no signs of slowing down. Its latest entry comes from Dutch studio Raw Color, who teamed with Spanish furniture mainstay Sancal on the joyful Link & Loop furniture range. Cylindrical motifs define the collection, which encompasses the chain-like Link Sofa, its enveloping Loop counterpart, and their respective poufs and backrests that can be used to fashion matching armchairs. “The essential geometry allows the overall volume to be soft and tactile in its appearance,” observe Raw Color founders Daniera her Hair and Christoph Branch. The collaboration arose during pandemic isolation with the hope that users could sit with one another again once normalcy returned. Both seating families come in a variety of colors chosen to play with light and perspective. and can be upholstered in the Kvadrat x Febrik Sprinkles collection for a speckled touch.
