PARALLEELIUM ETERNAL GARDEN
Paralleelium is an amalgamation of Art and Design.
A celebration of the changing nature around us. Our goal is to engage and inspire people by telling stories about lost and forgotten things. To Embrace new ideas for a better understanding of the world around us. All in glorious technicolour: drawings and patterns, concepts, furniture and much more are imagined into existence in parallel worlds.
The Paraleelium is the portal to another world, to a world where the flora has taken over what humans have left behind. It’s a beautiful, ethereal reality, full of growth and bloom. We don’t know where the world, we once knew, has vanished. But we know, that nature doesn’t turn into nothingness, when all else has dispersed.
We have been working together for over 3 years in the context of a world in crisis. This has drawn our minds to the alternative ways we could be living. The feeling of responsibility, but also the need for escape is resonating from all over the world. Not knowing which way, the tables will turn
for future generations, we wonder and dream even deeper of all the realities that could have manifested if decisions would have been made differently.
“In the beginning, the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.”
By” Douglas Adams in The Restaurant at the End of the Universe.The first series of Paralleelium brings explorers to different doors, that hide different realities. Spaces that seem like a distant memory — the parallel world is somehow familiar but in many ways different and not the same. Beautiful, quiet and eternal. Paralleelium lets you travel into this parallel universe, full of beauty, walking hand in hand with melancholy.
The series features extinct plants from our Eternal Garden collection — some gone forever, but some kept alive by loving gardeners.
