Australian Financial Review-Feb 2020
"Amid the glamour and glitz in the tents at Dubai Design Week last November, one piece stood out. A timber bench spiralled above the fray, seemingly extruded from a simple spindle seat. At once folly and furniture, the Preservation bench by a new South African studio called Houtlander was like a beacon signalling a resurgence of interest in timber furniture."
