GAN recently works alongside talents from design studio Neri&Hu in creating the expansive LAN collection. This collaborative range is comprised of furnishings including seat modules, rugs, and dividers. The concept of the entire range challenges the way that sofas are thought about, by designing the LAN pieces so that they can be broken down into separate modules that can be customized and readjusted in many different ways.
The color palette in the furniture collection takes on a mainly indigo canvas throughout -- lan directly translates to blue in mandarin. Aside from the dominant blue hues, there are accenting details finished in red and white to deliver a sense of contrast. The rugs offered in the collection allow for organization of the different pieces around it and the seating modules have cushions included and a tray to hold drinks. The LAN dividers are created to visually draw space between seating modules.
