THE FUSE

Globally recognized skincare and fragrance brand Aesop is no stranger to audacious design innovation, often taking bold leaps into uncharted territory. This April, the Australian company launched Aposē, its first foray into furniture product development. The limited-edition lighting series was inspired by the formal vocabulary of the aluminum tubes used to develop new scent and cream concoctions. This unexpected yet deftly realized deviation was presented in an immersive Milan Design Week display: a sloped field of upcycled 50ml fragrance vials.
