Sculptural Lighting Collections

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Unform Studio Presents Two Innovative Collections at Milan

— April 22, 2025 — Art & Design
As part of the 'A Different Kind of Future' exhibition at Milan's SaloneSatellite series, Unform Studio presents two innovative collections that showcase its distinctive fusion of retro-futurism and artisanal craftsmanship.

Unform Studio's Orbit furniture series and the debut Axis lighting range reinterpret Space Age optimism through a contemporary lens. The silhouettes combine polished stainless steel's industrial precision with organic wood and textile elements, creating an interesting synergy. Designer Ryan Twardzik's approach balances bold, geometric forms with tactile warmth that rejects cold utilitarianism in favor of pieces that invite physical interaction. The Orbit Chair exemplifies this philosophy with its juxtaposition of rigid metal framework against plush blue wool upholstery, while the walnut-topped Orbit Table reveals intricate joinery details upon closer inspection. The Axis lighting collection, developed with London designer George Goodwill, transforms monolithic steel into versatile illumination pieces through precisely calculated proportions and multi-directional hanging options.

Both collections demonstrate how advanced manufacturing techniques can coexist with hand-finishing when executed at the highest level of material and technical mastery.
