Lunch & Talk "From Object to Cult: How design shapes our lives"

What turns an everyday object into a cultural icon? How does design go beyond function to shape the way we live, feel, and connect with our spaces?

In this lunch talk, we invite you to participate in a dynamic conversation about the transformative power of design — from the role of craftsmanship in creating timeless pieces to the ways design reshapes our domestic landscapes. Drawing from our shared experience at the intersection of luxury, curation, and contemporary taste, we’ll explore what makes an object truly iconic and why certain designs stand the test of time.

Join us for an inspiring exchange on the subtle — and sometimes radical — ways design influences our daily lives.
