FREE is the result of a collaboration between YALI Glass and the New York-based design firm Charlap Hyman & Herrero (CHH). It is a graphic landscape of surreal proportions where works in glass, metal and wood by YALI, and works in paper and plastic by CHH, appear adrift in a limitless bath of red felt. Inside, the compression of the vitrine is relieved by an atmospheric frieze and ceiling of clouds and arrows - clad in a wallpaper by CHH - which complete the microcosm. Tables like lakes, chairs like mountains, wall-mounted clothing hooks like cat’s eyes, an over-scaled shell, illuminated on the floor, dot this miniature universe, where the relationship between the natural state of materials and their hand-wrought forms is as slippery as the boundaries of the space are legible.
