SEDIS COLLECTION THE RANGE GROWS UNDER A NEW BRAND

April 28, 2020 Anne-Claire Petre

INTRODUCING

acp atelier

acp atelier marks the exclusive collaboration between Anne-Claire and Stylecraft and a shared vision of timeless design with a local focus. It also celebrates the release of an extended collection for the Sedis range.

We initially launched the Sedis chair and barstool in mid-2019 under anaca studio. This was the start of our partnership with Stylecraft and the range has since received much acclaim within the design industry.

"As the collection grew, it became clear that this partnership with Stylecraft deserved a dedicated brand and so I created acp atelier. "

“The creation of a new brand is an exciting time. Thinking about what defines me as a designer, it was obvious that I wanted to acknowledge my French heritage. It is just so inherent to me and my design journey."

anaca studio does carry on with your usual favourite products and more to come this year.

INTRODUCING
Sedis outdoor collection

The outdoor collection consists of a chair and various sized barstools which subtly elevate the outdoor dining experience, whether in hospitality environments or an outdoor terrace.

The zinc primed and powdercoated frame finish, available in a range of contemporary colours and an neatly integrated stainless steel footrail ensure durability against the elements or when used in high traffic areas. An upholstered seat pad is also available.

INTRODUCING
Sedis lounge collection

Designed for residential living spaces or reception areas in commercial fit-outs, Sedis 2.0 seater lounge and easy chair are enclosed within a fine powdercoated metal frame with the upholstered arms, backrest and seat slender yet uncompromising.

The collection wouldn’t be complete without a range of tables. Keeping within the realm of the Art Deco aesthetic, their sophisticated design maintains the evocative curves and lines which originally inspired the seating range. The range consists of round, square and pill shapes of various sizes. Table top options include American Oak solid or veneer in natural finish or stained and the option of marble.

The Sedis collection is available exclusively through Stylecraft in Australia and Singapore.

Flo armchairs, Poppy side table and Narcisse mirror

Two years on from our last major launch, our signature style continues to evolve. Taking time to bring out new designs has allowed us to develop some more meaningful additions to the range.

So back in June at Denfair, we welcomed four new members to our furniture family.

This year’s collection maintains the relaxed sophistication and evocative curves synonymous with the brand, while introducing a fresh, subtly masculine appeal.

The Flo Armchair makes for a handsome addition to any space, particularly in sumptuous Italian leather which invites you to sink into its compact yet comfortable timber frame. Teamed with the refined silhouette of the customisable Flo Coffee Table, or a simple statement Poppy Side Table piece, the combination works effortlessly together as a complete casual sitting solution – an intimate nook in a style-savvy home, perhaps, easily scaled up for a commercial interior. The Narcisse Mirror, by contrast, is a standalone piece which elevates any space with its understated glamour.

The new products come in an wide array of finishes, fabrics and sizes. We are committed to collaborating with our clients to ensure that each item of furniture can be adapted to suit any interior setting, whether that be in a residential or commercial environment.

Each piece in Anaca Studio’s new collection exudes all the enduring quality and sustainable manufacture you would expect from a Melbourne-made contemporary classic. Timeless furniture, made to last and made to love.

"Having taken some time to develop these pieces, I am so excited to add them to the Anaca Studio range. Some are more commercial, while others have a more residential feel. The armchair had to be really comfortable, and have a ‘light’ yet robust appearance – its timber surfaces introduce warmth into an office or lobby area, and looks right at home in a residential lounge too."

The Design Co-op - Looking back

April 23, 2018 Anne-Claire Petre

Spread over three days in March 2018, and part of the Melbourne Design Week, The Design Co-Op celebrated the blending of unique Australian design brands and empowered attendees to realise that any space can be transformed into a meaningful ‘home’.

Liz and I were absolutely thrilled with the amount of positive feedback we have received.

THIS is what happens when our two brands One Fine Print and anaca studio collaborated and we put our minds together to create an event aimed to strengthen the existing design community, encourage the growth of new networks, promote boutique local design brands, and offer interactive learning opportunities for both industry professionals and the design-savvy public.

We were proud to bring together 21 collaborators including interior designers, furniture & products brands, makers and artists, 20 speakers including 4 magazine editors, 3 drink sponsors, 1 launch party with 180 guests, 120 attendees to 5 speaker events and 1 warehouse space transformed into a home showcase and event space in 24 hours!

The collaboration went beyond what we had expected. This was not people simply bringing their products to exhibit... Absolutely everyone worked together to install and create the showcase.
This was incredibly exciting to see such a positive collaborative approach.

“
“It was a pleasure to be involved with The Design Co-Op in 2018. The Talks series was thoughtfully curated and efficiently run by Anne-Claire Petre and Elizabeth Bull, who demonstrated not only a deep passion for the local design community but an understanding of what this community needs – I met many wonderful local creators as a result of the panel and enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the event. Anne-Claire and Liz were extremely well-organised and made the panel discussion a delightful experience from start to finish. I would encourage anyone passionate about local design and community to get involved in future editions!”
