6 October 2016 – New York, NY – This November, Maison Perrier-Jouët will make an exciting contribution to the DesignMiami/ global forum via an exclusive partnership with American designer and architect Andrew Kudless. In his DesignMiami/ debut, Kudless will present visionary works founded on the notion of digital craftsmanship. The pieces – which include a large-scale installation made from oak veneer screens, a table constructed using 3-D printed plastic, a bench inspired by the chalk walls of Perrier-Jouët’s wine cellars and an ice bucket crafted using a grape skin powder base – were inspired by the organic process of wine-making and embody a reflection on nature, craftsmanship and technology.

“Working with Maison Perrier-Jouët has been very interesting for me because it provided a link between the historic Art Nouveau movement and my work,” says Kudless. “As an artist I am interested in more emergent elements that are out of my control. This also applies to the wine-making process, where so many factors affect each year’s harvest. Learning to skillfully overcome external challenges while still producing a high-quality outcome is what merges the two crafts.”
