Matthew Day Jackson, Formica Group and
Made by Choice present Kolho, a collection
of tables and chairs inspired by the moon
NEW CENTURY MODERN
Renowned artist Matthew Day
Jackson presents a highly distinctive
collection of furniture, in collaboration
with the original inventors of high-
pressure laminate, Formica Group
and the Finnish contemporary design
company Made by Choice.
The collection, titled Kolho, after
the Finnish town that first inspired
Jackson, comprises a series of dining
tables and chairs juxtaposed with a
series of the artist’s well-known, exquisite flower paintings.
Together Jackson and Formica Group developed bespoke steel press
plates to create a textured laminate at 80 microns in depth that is a scale
representation of the surface of the far side of the moon. This texture is
derived from images taken from NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter
in 2009, launched in honour of the 40th anniversary of the Apollo 11
landing. Kolho’s debut will coincide with the 50th Anniversary of this
landing.
PALMS CHAIR
Kolho will be a permanent part of the Made by Choice collection available
to purchase from www.madebychoice.com. Prices start at 899 euros.
