Aram Store, which is based in London works together with Max Radford Gallery to present an in-store gallery space dubbed Now 4 Then. It showcases various furniture and lighting by designers in the brand's upcoming roster whilst also honoring the brand's heritage. The show highlights ten emerging designers in the UK and highlights products that are being seen for the first time. This takes place in London's Max Radford Gallery.
Max Radford, Max Radford Gallery's founder tells Dezeen about the process, stating "We worked with designers within our roster that we felt suited to the more product-based approach that Aram is associated with. We were also able to work with three new designers that we have admired for some time and felt would fit perfectly – Andu Masebo, Charlie Humble Thomas and Freddy Tuppen. This shift in approach for Now 4 Then has been a pleasurable challenge for us and something we look forward to doing more of as a gallery and platform."
