J7 Daybed in Red Oak and Steel with Papercord by James Howe.

James Howe is a furniture and lighting designer from Adelaide, drawing inspiration from what he observes in nature, city landscapes and utilitarian man-made objects. His pieces are textual, tactile, imbued with a lightness and sophistication of form. He has been recognised in a number of design awards, including being named one of six finalists in the 2017 Australian Furniture Design Award.

“The J7 daybed was born from my obsession with minimalism. My magnetic attraction to sparsity stems from a temperament which yearns for order, yet tends toward chaos. In my own life, the stripping away of unnecessary physical detritus serves as a counteragent to this chaos,” says James.

This work was created in response to Modern Times’ exhibition Transcendence, part of Melbourne Design Week 2020 - an initiative of the Victorian Government in collaboration with the NGV.
