Congratulations to Hem and David Taylor on being awarded Lighting Design of the Year by Dezeen for their collaboration 'Knuckle'.

Previously available in a natural wheat mix, Baux has broadened its offerings through rigorous research to include a range of vibrant yet biodegradable colours. This new colour palette allows architects & designers to enhance acoustics while honouring sustainable design principles.

During the summer months Relay takes the opportunity to sit down and review the first half of the year. This has been especially important this year, as 2023 saw the rush of our industry getting back out and re-establishing themselves in the real world. The result is our annual Mid Year Design Report.

The Relay team will be out in Copenhagen this week in full force to support +Halle and Zeitraum as they launch new collections for 2023.

Find out more about where to find them during 3 Days of Design and preview next week's launches.

Baux returned to Clerkenwell Design Week this May with their best exhibition to date. Collaborating with the brilliant Morag Myerscough to produce a pavilion championing custom-colours. Morag’s colourful pattern wrapped the Baux exhibition making it a bright spot in this year’s festivities.

Relay will be out in Milan this week to see the latest developments in new furniture, lighting and product design. We will be exploring the city exhibitions and are delighted to be back at the Euroluce fair to support Ago, as they launch 4 new lighting collections by Sebastian Herkner, Sylvain Willenz and BYMARS.

Knuckle is inspired by David Taylor’s signature bent extruded aluminium artworks, which are created by forcing this most stringent of materials into new shapes & forms.

Swedish design brand Hem stole the show at last week’s Stockholm Furniture Fair with the blisteringly bright stand design. Focused on a more curatorial approach, the Hem stand focused on new material & colour options, whilst highlighting product launches & previews.

During Stockholm Furniture Fair 2023, BAUX curated a museum-like exhibition and Acoustic Lounge, dedicated to exploring the future of Architecture, Interior Design and Wellbeing.

Relay will be out in Stockholm next week to see the latest developments in new furniture, lighting and acoustic design. We are delighted to be back at the Stockholm Furniture Fair following its absence during the Covid-19 pandemic.

The Hunk Lounge Chair and Glyph Side Table, mark Hem’s first collaboration with Seoul-based designer Kwangho Lee. The elemental block-like form of the Hunk Chair is a ground-breaking construction made entirely from natural materials, while the Glyph Side Tables are like small sculptures punctuating a living space.

Swedish designer Jonas Wagell continues his successful collaboration with Korean lighting brand Ago with the release of the new Bell collection. Showing at Design London as part of LDF2022, the Bell collection is a bold & graphic take on the track lamp.
