Based between Milan and London, the young London-born Artist and Designer Grace Prince has released her debut five-piece collection of limited edition collectible design pieces.
“The 2020 collection works to express much and suggest more in the fewest possible compositional attempts,” explains . The body of work examines a ‘thrown-together’ aesthetic that’s first explored in collages, later taking a three-dimensional form by a process of individual and conscious placement.
This method of working produces a particular tension. Pieces appear seemingly suspended, perceived as delicate and unfinished, with a sense of unsettled balance. When experienced up close, they are strong and sturdy, made with quality finishings and materials.
The collection is made up of five pieces – floor lamp, armchair, coffee table, side table and vase – which relate with each other in a very fluid way. Four of the five pieces have a hand-sculpted element, making each individual work slightly unique from the other, as well as being limited edition.
Clear Coffee Table, 2020. L 890 W 610 H 340 MM. Clear tempered glass, tulip wood veneer with matt finish, paint, leather. Limited Edition.

After graduating from Central Saint Martins in 2015 with a degree in Fashion Design and Marketing, Grace curved her career path by taking herself into the sphere of furniture design, completing qualifications in carpentry and marble carving.
She moved from London to Milan in 2017 to start her first role as an assistant furniture designer to , working closely with artisans across Italy. In 2019 she left that role to design under her own name, collaborating with design studios and galleries in Milan. Her debut collection of collectible design pieces was released in July this year.
