Offset by Soft Stripes Furniture from Indonesia



New York based designer Stephen Burks is collaborating with the Indonesian hardwoods furniture producer From The Source on a new dynamic collection combining pattern and colour. Deep dark rosewood cabinets are offset by soft stripes of reclaimed teak, zigzagging across the doors. Playful steel branches in bright colours support each piece, energizing the diverse palette of natural woods.
