The presentation will take place at The Restaurant by Caesarstone and Tom Dixon<\/em> \u2013 a collaboration between the designer and the quartz-surface brand for which four kitchen units will be used to produce a menu for the visitors.\u00a0The collection \u2013 named Materiality <\/strong>\u2013 is made up of five ranges, each highlighting the basic materials or \u201craw matter\u201d used by the brand to create its products.<\/p>\n

\"Salone<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cMarble, wood and plastic, glass, iron, brass and copper are the basic building blocks that have defined our products from the outset,\u201d said the designer. \u201cThis year, we step back and take a look at our biggest influence and an underpinning inspiration for what we do: our materials.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe teardrop shape focusses the lightbulb\u2019s output into a satisfyingly round and luminous circle, acting as the ultimate oversized spotlight,\u201d said the designer. \u201cThe metal finish is unusual as it graduates from completely reflective to transparent in an even fade along the body of the lamp.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Salone<\/a><\/p>\n

Melt \u2013 an existing range of pendants designed to look like mouth-blown glass in collaboration with Swedish studio Front \u2013 has been updated with floor and table lamp versions.\u00a0A set of stackable DIY furniture named Offcut is designed to challenge the perception of flat-pack as cheap and disposable.<\/p>\n
