Apartamento, the cult interior magazine and publishing house, and BD
Barcelona, a renowned furniture design company with over 50 years of
history, have joined forces for the first time to create a distinctive collection
of everyday objects.
Combining Apartamento’s creative vision with BD Barcelona’s long standing
nonconformist spirit, this series presents a fresh take on everyday items,
reimagining their form, colour, and functionality.
Celebrating creative freedom and experimentation, this collection is
designed by three artists who are all friends of Apartamento and BD:
Romanian artist Serban Ionescu, with whom Apartamento published two
books and a limited edition of his miniature sculptures; Spanish ceramicist
and designer Xavier Mañosa; and Swedish artist Klas Ernflo. Together, this
group captures the vision that has fueled BD Barcelona from the start. BD
seeks to expand the dialogue surrounding design and explore new realms of
creativity, both in this collection and beyond.
Each piece aims to balance artistic expression with practical utility,
challenging the conventional perception of everyday objects and
breathing new life into them. The series stands as an inviting introduction
to Apartamento’s evolving design philosophy, while also aligning with BD
Barcelona’s ongoing commitment to pushing the boundaries of design
innovation.
