Space Factory is multidisciplinary creation studio founded in 2016 by Ophélie Doria et Edouard Mafféïs. Their vision of design is driven by the search for the sensitive and humans in their conception.
Invisible Collection and Mobilier national partner to promote contemporary creation and present limited-edition designs. Mobilier national is a major institution for contemporary creation and the promotion of French decorative arts, whose mission has been to ensure, since the seventeenth century, the conservation and restoration of unique collections in the world. Mobilier national has broadened its scope by launching an annual “Campagne d’Acquisition” to support creativity and to integrate these pieces into the national collections. These works are then exhibited in institutional buildings. Thanks to this unprecedented partnership, a selection of contemporary furniture revealed by the Mobilier national’s 2021 “Campagne d’Acquisition” is available for purchase: Collectors will be able to acquire furniture that has been included in the official collections, and is available in limited edition on Invisible Collection.
The Contraste table is their first creation. With its hybrid nature, the table raises the question: And what if the cook’s place was above all at the table? The interplay between the marble and oak renders it materialistically hybrid as the two materials join to form a single tabletop, creating both contrast and harmony. It is equally as hybrid in its function, being both a table and a worktop. The marble permits the cook to prepare dishes at the table and ponder life’s great questions amongst friends, creating the ideal recipe for conviviality and long conversations.
