Hallingdal 65

Curated by Ilse Crawford

Léon de Lange tackles those spaces in our living environment which see little or no use, with a new series of upholstered furniture pieces.

The designs each cater to those recognizable but unorthodox positions that we often take on our furniture – sitting on the armrest of a couch, leaning against a higher piece of furniture or curling up in the corner of a sofa.

Created as a new typeface or character-form, together they work as a family. Almost human in shape and with the Hallingdal fabric almost acting as clothing, even when not in use the highly tactile pieces tell a story and invite interaction.
