Benjamin Hubert

British designer Benjamin Hubert’s first collaborative effort with De La Espada is a series of crafted products with an industrial aesthetic.

Gabion

Coracle

The collection takes a playful look at functionality, and in utilising a range of tactile materials, ’the hand of the maker’ is highlighted. In Quarry for example, the organic marks of the cutting tool are clearly visible in the hand-turned marble; and in Coracle, the woven automotive leather features hand stitching.

Quarry

The full range includes a dining table, side table, dining chair, lounge chair and pendent light.

Søren Rose Studio

For its first collaboration with De La Espada, Scandinavian design firm Søren Rose Studio has launched its Park Avenue Collection consisting of 9 products such as a bar table and stool, a floor lamp, a lounge chair and even wood sculpture.

P.A Dining Chair

The pieces are simple, meticulous in detail and explore new material combinations including cork, marble, aluminium, brass, fabric and natural wood.

P.A. Floor Lamp

Designer Søren Rose calls them designs for “real people” and the combination of “the best of the Scandinavian tradition with a New York contemporary feeling”.
