Michael Sodeau has come to the attention of the design world through his sensual mixing of natural materials and modern sculptural forms. He has developed a capsule collection of furniture featuring tables, rugs, lamps and ceramics, including his Satellite Side Table which uses a TV shaped top and a satellite shaped base to create a mixture of nostalgic reference and Minimalist form. Once Upon a Line highlights Sodeau's interest in joining the visually striking with a tactility and softness that puts a welcome twist on the starkness of much contemporary design. 77 b/w illustrations
