R & Company is participating in Design Miami/Basel 2018 with the gallery’s booth being curated by leading French designer Pierre Yovanovitch who has transformed the space into a visionary installation of historical and contemporary design.The immersive environment replicates a living space with an enclosed bedroom at the center of the booth that includes a Brazilian hardwood bed designed by Joaquim Tenreiro, new sculptural lighting designed by Rogan Gregory and a painterly carpet designed by Dana Barnes.Surrounding the bedroom are contemporary and historical designs Yovanovitch selected, which together create an elegant and engaging space. Included is a rare wooden bowl table designed by Jose Zanine that Yovanovitch presents alongside a new set of his own playful “Oops chairs.” Also on view are the latest coveted designs by contemporary artists Katie Stout, Jeff Zimmerman, and Ashley Hicks as well as a new series of furniture designed by Yovanovitch. The booth also presents a selection of key iconic Italian radical designs that are featured in the recently released “SuperDesign” film, which was screened at the fair on June 13.
