Japanese furniture and saddle bags influence Vidivixi's furniture collection
Designs in Mexico City studio Vidivixi's debut furniture collection include a bed cradled by cotton-covered rolls, and a bronze glass table with a base of interlocking, blackened wood tubes.
Vidivixi ? named after the Latin phrase vidi vixi, which translates to "I saw, I've lived" ? launched the collection in September 2018. It comprises five pieces, including a bed, a cabinet and three tables in circular forms and a variety of materials like stained oak, leather and bronze glass.
A standout piece is the bed called Docked en Rio. Rounded modules covered in cotton are placed around a walnut frame, to create rolled detailing at the headboard and the foot.
The mattress slots into this base, which then folds underneath each end ? a feature that the studio said draws on "traditional Japanese furniture".
Similar tube shapes are found in the support of the square coffee table, aptly named Café Con Leche. It comprises eight U-shaped oak forms ? two on each side ? that interlock to bolster the structure. The wood is stained black with a matte finish.
Café Con Leche's round-edged top is made of bronze glass, matching that of the circular Vivien's Table in the series. This dining table is also set on eight blackened-oak legs, although these are more chunky and vertical.
