Like many of our designers, Present Simple finds inspiration in contemporary art and architecture. But what gives them their energy is the sea that surrounds their city of Vladivostok, Russia. Svetlana and Victor Parkhomchuk don’t just call their brand simple, they live by it. Their cement based products are cast, ground and polished by hand and each unique piece can take two to three days to create. We’re ever impressed and excited about the amazing and beautiful contradictions in these decorations that are surprisingly light, comfortable and pleasant to touch.
