Feature Story

Other Matter & Made by Morgen

Jessie French introduces MarbleWood and a new seating range upholstered in Other Matter Leather, created with Made by Morgen for Melbourne Design Week.

WORDS of the WEEK

Stories to Gather grew from that idea: that a table could hold memory, story, and feeling all at once.


— L I A T O W N S E N D

A cozy indoor dining area featuring a round wooden table with two white stool chairs, a built-in wall shelf with dishes and a bottle, a framed abstract portrait on the wall, and a vintage wall-mounted extendable lamp above a pink cushioned bench. The setting includes a woven rug under the table and a tiled floor.
