A SERIES OF LIMITED EDITION ABSTRACT PRINTS USING NAIL VARNISH BY THE ARTIST SYRETT FOR ROOME LONDON

Laura Allnatt for ROOME LONDON said , “ Art , fashion and furniture are now closer than ever - our clients want high quality , beautifully made decorative pieces that are both functional and practical works of art – heirlooms of the future .”
Each of the three prints are translated onto the elegant furniture shapes below .

Former fashion designer turned artist , DANIEL SYRETT has collaborated with ROOME LONDON on the Designer Collection – three exclusive art prints created using nail varnish translated onto British made furniture using a super fine upholstery technique .
There are three prints in the Designer collection : John - dark , masculine in rich plum colours , exclusive to 1st Dibs ; Alexander – moody blues with accent of acid green and Coco - a heady mix of soft blues and powdery pinks . Each piece is limited edition ( 10 ) numbered .
SYRETT works in a laboratory weighing and mixing exclusive nail varnish colours that are then poured and dripped onto a Perspex sheet . The varnish dries at different speeds and with different textures to create his colourful and sophisticated prints that are coveted by collectors globally . ROOME LONDON then takes the nail varnish prints and translates them to fine silks and upholsters each one with painstaking attention to detail using silk threads onto its elegant furniture – in this collection , a dressing screen , cabinet and sideboard .
ROOME LONDON works with a range of artists , designers and illustrators to translate textiles to furniture and is open to bespoke commissions and collaborations – a limited edition six piece collection with fashion designer Matthew Williamson will launch early 2021 .
SYRETT said , “ There is no reason why art needs to sit on a wall . Each piece is a work of art and can be used to make a statement in a room as well as being functional and useful . I enjoy having things around me that are beautifully constructed and fill me with pleasure blurring the boundaries between art and fashion .”
