Wander from Within

Adrian Cheng and Uchida Design Inc. are proud to present Wander from Within, an exclusive design exhibition featuring an all-new artisanal furniture collection co-designed by Cultural Tastemaker Adrian Cheng, and award-winning Japanese master designer Shigeru Uchida. The exhibition is set to run on April 4th – 8th, 2017 at the prestigious Villa Necchi Campiglio, Milan, coinciding with the annual Milan Design Week (Salone del Mobile Milano). During the opening night on April 5th, guests will journey through the genesis of the collection and witness an exceptional showcase of traditional craftsmanship by renowned craftsman, Chuzo Tozawa.

Wander from Within is the maiden design show of Adrian Cheng, founder of K11 Art Foundation, and it marks the first collaborative project by the late Japanese designer Shigeru Uchida (1943 – 2016) who, through design, explored the sensibilities of the ephemeral and the ritualistic tea ceremony in Japanese culture. Uchida-san’s works are held in permanent collections at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and M+ Museum in Hong Kong, among others. Combined with Cheng’s unique use of fine detailing, the collection prompts users to re-think the definition of space and the man-nature connection in a confined setting.
