Stephanie Hornig: Camp and Set

At the upcoming Design Parade 8, the Austrian designer presents Camp, a collection that reflects on contemporary nomadism, and the Set bookshelf.

On the occasion of the upcoming design festival Design Parade 8 in Villa Noailles, Hyères, young Austrian designer Stephanie Hornig will present daybed and lamp Camp, alongside the Set bookshelf.

 

The Camp project reflects the designer's experience with a life of constant nomadism, and her feeling of displacement in every place she arrived to. "The pieces are reminiscent of the outdoor world and retain their functional character but are, however, pieces of furniture frozen in their movement," Hornig states. "A sleeping bag on legs, a parasol stand with a large table top and a torch in an outlet power strip made of stone." The designer sough to express, in each object, a series of collages of material, form and function, where each element is translated directly into their autonomy and lightness.

Meanwhile, the Set bookshelf — an adjustable object that can be fixed in two positions — is the result of the designer's experience with braiding techniques. "The shelving system is the abstraction of a braided mesh wire fence," says Hornig. "This creates a superimposed image of diagonals."
