Rude Arts Club

Faye Toogood invites you inside the artist salon. Rude Arts Club is an intimate escape from trade-show hustling and bustling. Piazza Santo Stefano, 10, Milano has been completely reimagined to celebrate and showcase the combined vision of two distinctive collections. Cosmic is Toogood and Tacchini’s first collaborative collection of furniture. Rude is the third instalment of handmade rugs in Toogood’s ongoing partnership with cc-tapis. Explore a house full of unique rooms, each designed and decorated to amplify the diverse output of Toogood’s most recent period of intense creativity. Rude rugs hug walls, mounted like the paintings of old masters. A constellation of tactile, scrunchable Lunar lights illuminate the Studio Bar with their diffused glow. Solar daybeds and sofas invite you to crash land on their squashy, corpulent forms. The plush finish of richly-coloured, fabric clad walls is met with Faye Toogood’s exciting, disruptive shapes. The lumps and bulges of Rude converge in rugs with intriguing titles such as “Tongue-And-Cheek”, “Poking Fun” and “Blue Tit.” Cosmic is a collection of irregular, elliptical shapes that combine the sculptural with the soft. With her signature mix of wit and style, Faye Toogood presents timeless works of unconventional design that unite the artistic with the everyday.
