Terry Crews and Bernhardt Design continue their design partnership with the release of his latest collection, Becca. After creating memorably unique pieces for the home and hospitality markets in his debut collection, he addressed the needs of public space furniture with Elevation, a system of benches and tables created for large open areas.

73V73V is an expansion of the technique used to create Bocci’s popular 73 series. The new pendant features a novel oblong shape and gradient colour range. 73V results from blowing molten glass into a folded, heat-resistant ceramic fabric. The resulting shape has a formal and textural expression intuitively associated with fabric, which becomes permanent as it cools. A light source is positioned at the top of each pendant, accentuating the volumetric perception of the piece as well as the gradation of color.
28 Armature28 results from an innovative fabrication process that manipulates both the temperature and the direction of air flow into blown glass. The result is a slightly distorted sphere with an interior landscape of satellite shapes, including an opaque milk glass diffuser that houses either a low-voltage xenon or LED lamp. 28 series are available in 90 different colour ways making every fixture unique in form and composition.
