The Future Perfect's show Lift Hold Roll challenged designers to create an object using a clamp, pulley or caster — or any combination of these — resulting in a tightly curated and at first glance, a very functional looking range of furniture, lamps and objects.
Limited to these simple utilitarian tools, most designers took the opportunity to add a layer of playfulness through the use of simple mechanical actions, unexpected function, and bright colors. Our favorite detail was the decorative treatment to the metal on Carrie Solomon's "Portable Candelabra" (pictured last).
