Jaime Hayon launches first furniture range

Spanish designer Jaime Hayon, known for installations such as his oversized chessboard in London's Trafalgar Square, has released his first complete furniture collection.

Designed for the UK-based, globally sold Sé Collection, which usually works with French craftsmen, the range includes chairs (the Arpa Armchair is a key piece), mirrors, tables and sofas made from woods, metals, marbles and fabrics.

Hayon - who was the Designer of the Year at the Maison & Objet fair in Paris last year - has collaborated with Japanese design brand Choemon-gama for a porcelain line and designed the Camper London store in Tokyo, but this is his first move into 'mainstream' interior design.

Prices range from £1,000 to £9,700 (from $1,605 to $15,565). Shop the collection now at http://www.se-london.com.
