Alphabet is the recently published catalogue of works by Barber & Osgerby from Electa. Printed to coincide with this summers sweeping retrospective of the studio’s work at the Milan Triennale, the book contains essays and reflection on Barber & Osgerby’s impactful practice alongside a chronology of works.

It’s a delight to see the Isokon Loop Table, designed in 1996 and the duo’s first product, open the studio’s thirty-year-long adventure. With designs like the Shell series and Bodleian Libraries Chair also featured amongst designs for Cappellini, Galerie Kreo, Vitra, and more.

“If I had to sum up their language in a word I would say: balance. Their pieces never shout; they are restrained and, precisely for this reason, often surprising.”

Alphabet is edited by Marco Sammicheli and available from Electa.it

Our Osaka exhibition Forms Across Time (Products of Modernism) is now closed. A final thank you to all at B.O.H. and staple studio ( plus best wishes to the next-in-line ) and some last impressions of our show there.

“Alongside importing the philosophy of European modernism into Britain, Isokon revolutionised furniture production through the persistent promotion of a single material – plywood.

In 1935 plywood was a truly revolutionary counter to everything that had come before; it was light, strong, flexible, and it could be formed without expensive machinery. When plywood’s unique material qualities demanded a new visual expression Marcel Breuer duly obliged. He pioneered an approach that expressed the structural strength and flexibility of the material and put the economy of form before adornment.

These same principles of design have continued to guide Isokon throughout our history.”
Forms Across Time, excerpt.

It is the final week of Forms Across Time (Products of Modernism) at the new B.O.H. Gallery, Osaka.

It has been an honour and pleasure to present Isokon to the Japanese public. We’ve been forced to consider how those without knowledge of our brand and its history first experience it, and it’s given us reason to reflect on our Modernist past too.

A huge thank you from us to the team at Staple and staple studio for the opportunity to present Isokon and their kind collaboration.

The exhibition explores Isokon’s Modernist legacy and contemporary work. It’s the first time such a substantial collection of Isokon works has been presented to the Japanese public.

Alphabet is a retrospective exhibition of Barber & Osgerby’s work currently showing at Milan’s Triennale.

Ed Barber & Jay Osgerby were recent graduates when they stumbled across a workshop making Isokon products. What followed was a fruitful creative collaboration that lasted many years. Barber & Osgerby’s history, and that of Isokon, are intrinsically linked. It is a true honour to see Isokon products represented amongst Ed & Jay’s catalogue of era-defining works.

Isokon’s Loop Table, Flight Stool, Shell Table, Shell Chair, Portland Bench, Bodleian Chair are all represented.

Alphabet is curated by Marco Sammicheli and will be on view at the Triennale until September 6th.
