Vienna Design Week Passionswege: Beza Projekt @ Atelier Telliez

One of our favourite projects during Vienna Design Week was the Passionswege project “The Swing” by Warsaw based Beza Projekt at Atelier Telliez.

Philippe Telliez is a “tapessier” – a profession that can only be truly described in paragraphs, but essentially is an upholsterer who primarily works with wall hangings, tapestries and the like.

Anna Łoskiewicz and Zofia Strumiłło-Sukiennik from Beza Projekt combined this “hanging” aspect  with the materials Atelier Telliez’s use on a daily basis to create a luxurious swing – designed for adults looking to escape their laborious adult world by fleeing to a  children’s world. A flight that, ironically, is only possible thanks to the riches the laborious adult world has brought them.

And of course, as a bit unadulterated rococo exuberance in the midst of a city that almost invented the phrase “ostentatious consumerism” a geographically relevant project.

Just delightful!
