A selection of works, photographs and models that Urquiola has created since establishing her studio in 2001 feature in the exhibition. Furniture, rugs and walk hangings are displayed against a peach-hued platform like miniature interior sets.
Placed towards the start of the display is the 2007 Crinoline chair, featuring a decorative pattern based on the petticoats of the 1800s.
Hanging behind is the designer's Fishbone Inlay, comprising marble and other semiprecious stones arranged in a parquet patter. Urquiola sourced the material for the piece from leftovers following the 2012 earthquake that hit Italy's Emilia-Romagna region.
