A coffee cup spilled on a white surface. This is the image that inspired GLOW, the capsule collection born from the collaboration between CPRN and IED.
A limited-edition series of three furniture pieces where the know-how of the Tuscan company meets the vision of the designers of the future.
Composed of three furniture elements – the Royal armchair, the Aline pouf, and the Grace coffee table – GLOW stands out for its elegant and versatile lines. A distinctive graphic element gives character to the collection: a pattern that reproduces the organic and unpredictable shapes of a coffee stain.
This decorative motif emerges in the fabric of both the armchair and the pouf, crafted by Alessandro Bini. While in the coffee table, it is evoked through the natural veining of the marble top. The result is a “talking furniture” collection, capable of conveying the same intimate and relaxing atmosphere as a coffee break. A project with a strong expressive impact that highlights the narrative side of design.
CPRN and IED: Elevating the next generation of designers
The collaboration between CPRN and IED students highlights the importance of fostering dialogue between companies and young designers, supporting emerging creativity and creating a breeding ground for experimentation and innovation in the world of contemporary design.
Moreover, the GLOW capsule collection marks a significant market innovation: it is the first CPRN collection available for purchase online, thanks to the launch of a new dedicated e-commerce platform. A shopping experience designed to offer customers direct access to unique design pieces.
