What do wooden chairs, ceramic vessels and a nutcracker all have in common? Well, in this case, they're all part of the FHNY Collection. This limited edition industrial design line may seem incongruous, but their great designs tie them together seamlessly.
Created by Florian Hauswirth of Switzerland, the FHNY Collection was made entirely in New York City. Through this project, Hauswirth hopes to raise awareness of the materials and processes used to create everyday objects.
