Color Fantasia

All the creative eclecticism of Baxter goes into the new collection for 2023. The irreverence of Pop Art, the design of the 1970s, the Majorelle blue that enchanted Yves Saint Laurent, the sparkling atmosphere of Studio 54, come back to life in seductive settings for the day and night zones. This kaleidoscope of inspirations is composed of materials and colors, skillfully mixed to of- fer different interpretations of the concept of elegance in the Baxter style. This is what happens in the encounter between the Jodie chairs and the Kate table (both created by Christophe Delcourt): an expression of love for electric blue, enhanced by juxtaposition with Grand Antique marble, through soft lines that emanate a sensation of comfort and informality.

Light that crosses time

The path of evolution of lighting by Nemo extends along two parallel lines, namely the creation of contemporary icons and the development of the ‘Masters’ collection, a range of lamps designed by the great masters of the 20th century, like Le Corbusier, Charlotte Perriand, Vico Magistretti, Franco Albini and Kazuhide Takahama. This second direction includes the Lampe de Bureau created by Charlotte Perriand in 1965: a project that arose from the need to light the faces reflected in the mirror of a cabinet designed for the famous French glassworks Boussois. The Lampe de Bureau first appeared in the wall version, and was later transformed as a table lamp: the gray steel stem is attached to a darker base, raised and almost suspended, while the translucent glass diffuser comes in white for the outer surface, green, red, blue and blue-gray for the outer finish.
