MATTER and SHAPE

Year
March 2025

Scenographed by the French duo Heim & Viladrich (@heimviladrich), exploring collectible design through their signature spatial interventions—crafting environments that blur the boundaries between function and fiction, materiality and narrative, retail and curation.

Their scenography offered a thought-provoking look at how context shapes perception at the COLLECTIBLE’ Booth at Matter and Shape 2025.

inviting the viewers to consider the environmental pitfalls of the floral industry through the magical interplay of light and form. Placed inside a mirrored steel base, delicate cut glass flowers contrasted the industrial form of the base highlighting the fragile balance between nature and the commercial world we live in. Thoughtful, provocative and exquisite, this was a reminder of how art and design can constructively raise awareness and be a valuable contributor towards change.
