2. Sebastian Errazuriz was honored with the 39th Collab Design Excellence Award. The exhibit is a mid-career survey presenting 15 years of a multi-hyphenate practice that gives design a conceptual, surrealist blend. Errazuriz twists the typical expectations of furniture, lighting, and everyday objects. Embracing humor and appropriation, his one-of-a-kind pieces often have a subtext that goes beyond form and function, extending into the realms of personal narrative, political message, and cultural commentary.
