Invisible City’s Yellow Incunabular Side Table Chosen by Flair Magazine, Germany for Design News, May 2013.

Invisible City are very excited about the three Incunabular sideboards displayed in Hong Kong and Shanghai by Lane Crawford.  The Incunabular Sideboards form part of Lane Crawford’s 2013 Collection. The Incunabular Collection was design by Simon Moorhouse for Invisible City in 2012 and exhibited at Tent London 2012 during London Design Festival.

Thank you for your kind words B!

“Here in London we’ve survived death by design – but only just. The London Design Festival put on six major shows in ten days, not to mention all the smaller events. No wonder everyone in the design world – from makers to buyers, with the odd hack hanging on – was exhausted by the end of September……….

If truth be told, furniture around the rest of the Festival was serviceable enough but not terribly exciting. There is a plethora of “mid-century modern” stuff with slab cushions and wooden frames with splayed legs. Bloggers were raving about fashion designerOrla Kiely’s huge new furnishing collection (with its rich brown stains and flat abstract prints launched at DesignJunction in an abandoned Post Office Sorting Office). But they were obviously not old enough to remember the gloom of orange and brown first time round. My favourite pieces were the cupboards designed by Simon Moorhouse for his company Invisible City. Simon has a stunning eye for colour – the door/drawer fronts for each piece come in an exclusive mix of colours.”

” For anyone interested in contemporary design, the London Design Festival is a must see. With more than 300 events and shows in four “districts” across the capital. We visited Tent London and Design Junction and picked out ten themes…..Invisible City has given the sideboard, that mid-century design classic, a colourful revamp”

We would like to thank ‘the guys’ at Tent London and everyone that came along to see our first collection. The response has been overwhelming! As ‘new kids on the block’ the advice and praise we have received has been so helpful. Invisible City will be releasing new products in the New Year so please keep an eye on the website and look out for us in the press.

“Preserving its reputation as the coolest event in the festival spectrum, Tent has a new neighbour this year in the form of Super Brands. Creativity is the key, and trends seen here can often be spotted a season later on the high street.”

Sara Norman, Living Etc Magazine.
