codes, fashions and styles, Marcel Wanders transports us into his offbeat world,
bordering on irreverence. He gives us a masterful, extravagant, poetic version
of the wooden rocking horse from our childhood. Adorned with a precious silver
horn, an embroidered leather saddle and stirrups, this life-size unicorn
transports us into a fairytale world of magic that doesn’t take itself too
seriously. It acts as an invitation to dream by creating a link with our
childhood emotions.This oversized oak unicorn is finished off with beautiful
tack in high-quality embroidered ecological leather. The relief motifs, inspired
by the cartoon world, are the result of meticulous leather craftsmanship. The
result is a complex network of interwoven patterns, a profusion of colourful
shapes. This unicorn can take one or two people on its back.On the border
between design and contemporary art, Arion is a completely surrealist work that
blurs the lines between fiction and reality. For Moooi’s co-founder, design
is first and foremost a matter of emotion. The aestheticism of Moooi products is
marked by lines, materials and finishes that ingeniously think outside
the box.
