poodle

A collaboration coined by a worldwide pandemic. During the Lockdown in Germany everything had to shut down. So that the dog groomers had to stay closed as well created a challenge for me. In the course of me scouring through the internet for dog grooming DIYs and instructions, I must have messed up my algorithm for various search engines, considering pictures of well-groomed dogs started surfacing everywhere I looked, regardless the search. And that’s when I stumbled upon the picture of the most charismatic poodle I haver ever seen. We were amazed by the most lavish silhouette combined with perfectly balanced shapes resulting in an object with striking personality.

The picture inspired us to take its shapes and the attitude it emits and create something new. A chair family with a similar whimsical character, hugging and comforting shapes and fabrics that play with the poodles original texture.
