‘I hope it inspires people to buy small objects with the same mind as when they buy a chair, to put it in the context of their environment,’ Raf Simons told Wallpaper* on the release of his first accessories collection with Danish textile company Kvadrat, released in August 2022.
Titled Kvadrat/Raf Simons, the collaboration drew inspiration from Shaker furniture – namely, the designer’s conception of a ‘Shaker System’, a horizontal bar based on the peg rails used by the Protestant religious group. From it hung the various pieces from the collection, which spanned cushions and throws, but also wearable objects including a cap, tote and shopping bags, and key chains.
