Nucleo is presenting the Petroglyph collection in the first edition of PAD New York, through Gallerie Secondome. Using scrap materials sourced by the Nucleo Laboratory, the wooden tables and chairs have been assembled in layers to create striated forms. Additional timber boards are used to create screenprints with quotes inspired by Fyodor Dostoyevsky – celebrating beauty as the only form of salvation. “Salvation in a double sense, the message hidden inside, the soul, and in the re-used material, the body, visible to all.” The exhibition will run November 11-14, 2011.

It resulted in a relaxing, comfortable and delightfully surprising environment in a 5000-square-foot garage at Piers 92 and 94

This series of plates by Nir Meiri are made from two basic materials: concrete and wood. I think that the feet look like ballerina toes, delicately balancing the treats. This project is currently on exhibit in the Mishkan gallery in Holon, Israel.

I loved the BRC Designs booth at ICFF. I spent quite some time in there just touching and playing with everything. BRC is Benjamin Rollins Caldwell, who loves designing using odd and unusual materials, making very functional items out of them. Every piece asks you to interact with it, but they don’t feel over-designed or unusable.
