Estudio Persona’s Connection Collection started with the investigation of volume, and the idea to present elemental forms in a new and different way. The Uruguayan-born, Los Angeles–based designers were particularly inspired by Carl Andre’s structural building principles, in which elements are stacked and interlocked, as well as David Batchelor’s book Chromophobia; for instance their amber-colored Block chair, when seen from above, is an uppercase “I” volume, while when viewed at eye level, it is simply a chair. The Bow floor lamp is an intentional contrasting element in this collection, inspired by Austrian artist Florian Pumhösl and his study on Georgian letters. The cylinder and sphere are connected by a line, making a graphic impact in a space, which balances with the bulky structural pieces of the rest of the collection.
