The Workshop
Every piece begins as raw material — steel, glass, bronze, oak — and ends as a single, irreproducible object. Step inside the ateliers where thetalentplus editions are patinated, upholstered and finished by hand.
Patination
Colour is applied, not printed. Each metal surface passes through successive baths of heat and chemistry until the patina reaches the exact tone specified by the artist.
The process can take a single afternoon or several weeks, depending on the depth of finish a piece like the Nimbus Chandelier requires.
Upholstery
Textiles are cut, stitched and stretched by hand across frames that rarely repeat. A single armchair can take a week of close work before it is ready to leave the bench.
Pieces such as the Aria Lounge Chair take longer still — its curved shell demands the fabric be eased into place without a single visible seam.
