Dimensione’s retail icon Ben Chan hosted another unexpected collaboration. He invited 8 of Secret Fresh Gallery’s artists to interpret Eero Aarnio’s Magis Puppy Chair. The Filipino artists – Whoop Wonka, Nemo Aguila, Tripp63, Farley del Rosario, Mimi Tecson, Wesley Valenzuela,  Electrolychee and architect duo Janus Design Studio – showed their work in a reception at Dimensione High Street (also the home of Daphne® Furniture).

I love this. Stray by Jagnus Design Studio. Being the only architects in the group, they interpreted the design challenge by reconstructing the Magis Puppy in keeping with their design principles. Photo source.
