This year Tom Dixon debuted Rough and Smooth at Milan furniture fair in his self-instigated venture MOST, which presents work using new design technologies, materials and production systems. Dixon has explored both texture and the material weight of production in this new collection, as well as extreme polished surfaces and sharp lines. Gem comprises a group of angular lights, tables and mirrors, sand cast from nickel-plated aluminium, which took inspiration from cut gemstones. Cell is made from multiple layers of etched polished brass, while Spun uses curves of solid brass sheets that are hand spun, welded and polished to a mirror finish.
