ICFF 2008: O'Hare & D'Jafer

2008-05-19-marquetry1.JPG2008-ICFF-CHI2008-05-chiicff.jpgFrom the UK, O'Hare & D'Jafer were at ICFF showing ultra decorative, patterned pieces. Traditional materials used in unusual ways is one of the hallmarks of their style - a marquetry chest shown in front of a matching wood panel...

The work by designers Stephen O'Hare and Mevlit D'Jafer could be considered to be the antithesis to streamlined, minimlist modern, but would be a fine accompaniment to a home filled with more hard edge pieces. The look is luxe, a bit exotic and dramatic; very memorable statement pieces.

That first one reminds me of the scene in Garden State when Zack Braff wears the shirt made out of the same material as the bathroom wallpaper....

DWF! Hilarious! I was thinking the same thing. But I like this version much MUCH better.

What I really want are those bee pulls.

It must be made by the same factory that made the Pottery Barn one, though, because yet again, there is random pull placement.
