Bohinc Studio shows space-themed collection in 18th-century townhouse
London designer Lara Bohinc showcased her latest, space-themed furniture collection in a 200-year-old house in London's King's Cross that was converted into an immersive installation for the occasion.
Both a homeware collection and the house's interior were created specifically for the London Design Festival and feature Bohinc's take on celestial shapes and colours.
Bohinc also showed items from her Planetaria collection of furniture that was launched at Milan design week earlier this year, including three chairs, two pouffes, a loveseat, console and range of lights.

The new homeware range ? consisting of two boxes and one vase ? pays homage to the upcoming conjunction of Pluto, Jupiter and Saturn, an astrological event set to take place in January 2020. The Saturn and Pluto box consists of three interlocking, circular brass compartments that are distinguished by lids in white calacatta, red travertine and black portoro marble.

The Jupiter vase meanwhile nods to the planets astrological association with optimism through the arched, rainbow-like shapes that form its base.
These consist of carrara marble shaped using a technology called 3D milling, whereby a three-dimensional shape can be cut from a block of material using a computer-programmed machine.
