Draga & Aurel, the dynamic duo behind the multidisciplinary studio, are turning heads again. After bending light with their Flare series, they’ve returned with the Zen Collection—unveiled at Rossana Orlandi Gallery during Milan Design Week.
This latest work captures the essence of multicolored light, seemingly trapped within blocks of ice. But these aren’t just frozen sculptures. They’re functional art pieces: three coffee tables and a dining table, all handcrafted from Lucite by artisans in Como, Italy.
Each table features a frosted surface, giving it that unmistakable chill. Inside, layers of pastel-hued Lucite sheets play with light, replicating refractions that feel both dynamic and suspended in time.
First up, the coffee tables. Each one is a unique composition, exploring the interplay of light and color in a compact form that’s perfect for any modern space.
Then there’s the dining table—a bold centerpiece that brings the collection’s luminous qualities to life, making every meal an experience.
Draga & Aurel are clearly on a journey with light, pushing boundaries and inviting us to see the world through their innovative lens. Their Zen Collection isn’t just furniture; it’s an exploration of perception and artistry.
