"Nicholas Gardner and Saša Štucin focus on creating work with conflicting functions and imagery, without abandoning beauty or consumer logic. They are keen to blur the boundaries between acceptable furniture typologies and conceptual representative objects. Making plays a big role in their practice. They are designers and manufacturers of their objects. Their interest in various materials results in a diverse body of work. The refined, simplified forms of their works reflect principles of mid- century design, but the pieces also veer toward conceptual territory by evoking the malleability of how objects are seen and mediated today."
