Zaha Hadid's Last Furniture Collection Will Debut in London
The late architect’s works will be part of the David Gill Gallery’s “UltraStellar” exhibition.
The final furniture collection that architect Zaha Hadid designed before passing away earlier this year is set to go on display at London’s David Gill Gallery. A part of the space’s forthcoming exhibition titled “UltraStellar,” eight bespoke items from both previous collections and never-before-seen works will be showcased. The crystal-and-metal comprised Lisse chandelier will be revealed for the first time since Hadid previewed a prototype back in 2014.
Three of the items were created for the “Liquid Glacial” collection, which were shown at the gallery four years ago, encompassing hand-polished acrylic consoles and sterling silver rippled bowls. In a number of the newer pieces, Hadid forwent her familiar milled-acrylic style and chose to go with softer mediums including walnut and leather, while still highlighting her signature curves. See “UltraStellar” at the David Gill Gallery from Oct. 3-29.
