Better Together – Place by Ross Gardam from Stylecraft

As individuals in society become increasingly isolated and the lines between residential and commercial environments are restructured, the concept of togetherness has taken on a new meaning. With the Place lounge collection, available exclusively in Australia and Singapore
through Stylecraft, designer Ross Gardam expresses a desire to once again bring people together, offering a functional modular platform designed to create, connect and experience.

Conceived from an idealistic belief in bringing people together, the Place lounge collection is designed to support creativity in an environment that is smart, agile and intuitive. Presently, as places of work and life are consistently redefined, furniture that can transition between commercial and residential spaces has taken on increased importance. The Place collection of lounges and accessories bridges the design gap between being residential or commercial, offering genuine comfort and soft styling balanced with work-focused functionality and proportions.

Offered as a modular platform, each configuration provides an opportunity for personalised customisation. “Place solves problems other products do not, and it achieves this while offering an exceptional level of comfort and style,” says Ross Gardam. “I see it as a unique product with so many configurations possible; I am truly looking forward to seeing how people use it and how it can evolve in space.”

Designed by Ross and his team to be streamlined, with minimal surrounding edge detail, the flexibility inherent in the collection allows for a myriad of varying adaptions, all with the prioritising function of bringing people together through design. Endlessly modular, the ottomans, lounges, arms and backs that make up the Place collection can be zipped together or set up in a more permanent arrangement through the use of a detachable bracket joiner.

Multiple back and arm heights provide varying levels of privacy, all while existing within an economically square footprint. This translates to every element of the Place collection joining in perfect symmetry, facilitating the ability to sit back-to-back or nest together, a poignant opportunity for togetherness in today’s society.

Available exclusively through Stylecraft in Australia and Singapore, the Place lounge collection is the true embodiment of the progressive design solutions for which Ross Gardam has become known. Designed and made in Melbourne for private and public, residential and commercial spaces, there is a true versatility to the collection that helps facilitate a renewed sense of togetherness.
