Painting memories with well-forgotten old things

Oh how I'm so very proudly excited to have found the work of Ukraine based interior workshop Sergey Makhno! Not only because Nest of Pearls searches to discover talented designers in all corners of the world, but also because the work is just very simply breathtaking. Headed-up by Sergey Makhno himself, the talented team embark on a vast array of projects ranging from interior fit-outs, to architectural projects, through to, and this is what has won my little heart, unforgettable object design.

As it's rather impossible to wrap one's mind around all their fabulous work in just one blog post, I've chosen to share with you their collection called The Invariants, but I do encourage you to immerse yourself further and discover all their great work, available for view via their site

So, The Invariants. The collection portrays a series of vases using materials that we find very familiar from our childhood days, such as concrete and glass jars. Despite its simplicity, the work captures a magnitude of emotions, a certain austerity as well as a notion of loneliness. We also feel the absence of the elements of nature... yet another link to childhood memories of big city living, where streets were the haven for play and fun.
