Figures in an Interior

Charlap Hyman & Herrero New York November 6 - December 24, 2024

Taking its name from an Édouard Vuillard painting, Figures in an Interior sees award-winning architecture and design studio Charlap Hyman & Herrero position their creative vision culturally and art-historically, presenting interior space as something mutable and imbued with light.

Constructing space optically – using pattern, color, and texture to define physicality and weight – Charlap Hyman & Herrero defines their practice within the language of a folded dimensionality that loops image and materiality into one another.

Exclusive to The Future Perfect, this collection – created by utilizing recycled Japanese kimonos and French tapestries – expands on the design duo’s series of pillows and hand-painted lanterns.

The lanterns are a new edition, created in collaboration between Charlap Hyman & Herrero and Pilar Almon. Paying homage to the titular painting, they explore Vuillard’s obsession with pattern and unmediated color, using the pieces continue Charlap Hyman & Herrero’s recognizable, bold aesthetic, blending reverence to history with the avant-garde.

Experience Figures an Interior beginning November 6 in The Future Perfect’s New York gallery.
