Unveiling FORMEI: A New Horizon in Interior Design
FORMEI, a unique interior design brand born from a Japanese architectural and spatial design team, represents a profound journey where form meets function. The name itself combines "FORMA" meaning shape and "MEI" meaning brightness or life, encapsulating a philosophy that prioritizes thoughtful design and craftsmanship. From July 31 to August 3, FORMEI will hold a limited exhibition at the Gallery Studio, offering a chance to explore their exceptional first collection and immerse in their brand concept.
The First Collection
Concept
FORMEI’s inaugural collection features products that are both sculptural and practical, designed to grace any space and deepen in meaningfulness over time. Each piece tells a story through its minimalist structure, carefully chosen materials, and masterful craftsmanship, creating a new category of furniture that transcends time. This fusion results in an aesthetic that is not only visually stunning but also offers functional utility in everyday life.
Timeless & Sustainable
The design philosophy behind FORMEI emphasizes modernity intertwined with sculpture-like proportions. These unique designs possess a beauty that stands the test of time, free from fleeting trends. This commitment to timelessness is complemented by sustainable practices, ensuring that each piece contributes to both individual spaces and the planet’s well-being.
Material Consciousness
An acute awareness surrounding material selection characterizes FORMEI’s products. By stripping away unnecessary elements, the brand creates innovative value through a minimal framework. This approach provides the customer with a sense of connection and appreciation for each item in their collection.
Craft & Innovation
At the heart of FORMEI’s design is a harmonious blend of artisanal craftsmanship and cutting-edge innovation. Each creation stands out, radiating a unique presence that invites interaction. The marrying of traditional techniques with modern aesthetics sets FORMEI apart in a crowded marketplace.
Sensory Experience
As each product is used, the materials develop character and charm, enhancing in beauty through natural aging processes. This sensory experience is pivotal, inviting users to not just own a product, but to form a relationship with it over time.
Experience the Brand at the Gallery Studio
To embody its artistic vision, FORMEI is opening the doors to a dedicated Gallery Studio. Spanning approximately 120 square meters, this spacious environment allows visitors to engage with the products on a deeper level.
