Cassina | Stay Collection

Created during this unique time of staying at home, Neri&Hu explores notions of domesticity, shelter and the inner sanctum with their debut collection for Cassina Functionally, the collection is for the storage of domestic objects, so the name also refers to how cloths and objects “stay” in their chests of storage spaces, drawing a humorous parallel to our current human condition.

The Stay collection is a tribute to our collective experience of sheltering in place (including the objects’) - as the world around us feels increasingly unstable, the home is a resilient source of comfort and stability. The foundation of each piece in the collection is the wooden platform base upon which other functional items sit. The stout legs and wide plank are steady and immovable, in contrast to the upper elements that are more lightweight and flexible. The series ranges from a vertical chest of drawers to a screened armoire, while several hanging accessories like mirrors and hooks can also be added to customize the pieces to suit your personal rituals.
