Being a huge fan of all things Horm for many years, the 2011 collection of this talent hub elevated the design giant to new heights, a merit attributed in part to its new collaboration with an American design prodigy, Todd Bracher. A New Yorker by birth, Todd Bracher’s design portfolio spans across continents leaving its mark among Europe’s most prestigious brands like Tom Dixon, Zanotta, Cappellini and Frighetto to name a few. Yet, through his unwavering aesthetic consistency, his contribution to the design world and more specifically, to Horm’s 2011 collection conjures up sensory notions that intensify with deeper understanding of the product.
In his stripped down, bare-minimum creation, Todd Bracher explores beauty that transcends debauchery, that requires more than just a cursory glance to truly and fully appreciate its aesthetic. Possessing deftness that ultimately reveals Canard’s true essentials, the table collection is an unadulterated depiction of vitality and timeless simplicity, celebrating the founding principles of modern design with utmost perfection.
The Canard tables are defined by pure geometry, substantiality and versatility interpreted through folded metallic leaf legs that act as multi-dimensional borders for its top. Available in four sizes, the Canard table has a white or black lacquered top, or Canaletto walnut veneer top while its legs are made of white or black varnished metal.
