Alexandra Champalimaud, Founder of internationally renowned studio Champalimaud Design, has partnered with Charles Burnand, the London-based Design Gallery and Studio, for a limited edition capsule collection to be debuted at The Salon Art + Design Show 2019 at The Park Avenue Armory, New York, from 14th - 18th November.  

The Charles Burnand x Alexandra Champalimaud collaboration, which is part of Charles Burnand’s Icons Collection, draws inspiration from the volume and graciousness of North American glaciers. Their grounding presence and understated majesty give way to reimagined ideations around shape and form for a bespoke sofa, coffee table and pendant. Each piece is designed to exist as either independent articulations or together as a synchronistic statement and has been entirely handcrafted in London.

“I am thrilled to be collaborating with Charles Burnand on this bespoke collection. There’s both a creative and easy understanding between us that has truly revealed itself in the process of creating these pieces.  The use of materials in the pieces, the tactility and the elevated craftsmanship speak to both our commitment and approach to design. There is also a strong poetic synergy, a grace that reflects in the final form.” Says Alexandra Champalimaud.

“We have been working with the Champalimaud Design team for the last year creating exquisite bespoke furniture and lighting pieces for their residential and hospitality clients. This capsule collection has given us the opportunity to explore materiality and form, resulting in these exceptional pieces. Having Alexandra directly involved in the design of this collection marks a hugely significant moment for our collectors and we are thrilled to debut this at the 2019 edition of The Salon Art + Design.”  Says Founder and Creative Director of Charles Burnand, Simon Stewart.
