In April 2023, MORGAN STYLE unveiled its new Mikaela furniture collection, once again highlighting British designer Matt Arquette’s avant-garde role in cross-border design. Inspired by the sleek lines of sports cars, this series infuses speed and power into home products, redefining modern furniture aesthetics through fluid forms and futuristic materials.
As MORGAN STYLE’s lead designer, Matt Arquette adheres to the philosophy of "Design from Life, design for life!" In the Mikaela series, he transforms the dynamic contours of sports cars into three-dimensional furniture: the streamlined design integrates seats, armrests, and backrests, conforming to ergonomic curves while evoking the silhouette of a speeding car. The concave side design resembles spreading wings, paired with delicate stitching and knotted wood veneers, creating a visually lightweight yet luxuriously understated effect.
"Design is about balancing aesthetics with functionality," Matt Arquette explains. "The Mikaela series not only pursues visual impact but also prioritizes user experience." For example, the armrests feature custom frosted membrane leather, enhancing texture and comfort. The seating structure is engineered for optimal support and flexibility, ensuring both beauty and practicality.
This innovative blend of automotive industrial aesthetics and home design has not only expanded MORGAN STYLE’s product line but also sparked industry-wide reflection on cross-border creativity. Since its launch, the Mikaela series has become a focal point in the high-end home market, hailed as "touchable speed art." Through this design, Matt Arquette once again demonstrates his ability to transform aesthetic essences from diverse fields into functional art. See Similar Projects by this Client!
