From March, Triqis’ will be transforming a Clerkenwell showroom into a rotating exhibition series that combines contemporary design with explorations of cultural renewal and creative identity.
The showroom itself will feature furniture and lighting from Boateng and Le Bozec. As the series begins, the space will welcome artists and musical collaborators. In the words of Triqis, “Expect a blend of Caribbean warmth, modernist restraint and Nordic clarity, the foundation of the Triqis aesthetic, expressed through modern design, cultural references and a subtle sonic layer.”
Commencing on Saturday 28th of March, The Gingerbread House hosts an evening of carefully curated sound and casual performances, followed by an exhibition which is also open on Sunday the 29th.
Inspired by Trindad’s “gingerbread” houses, alongside new furniture and lighting designs from Boateng and Le Bozec, the exhibition features work from a curated choice of creatives. Combining the artists’ work within the themes of culture and identity.
The line up includes Hannah Slaouti, a ceramicist who focuses on self-expression and cultural narrative. Slaouti draws inspiration from her North African heritage, as well as nature and architecture, creating ceramics that feature intricate patterns and explores emotional connections to objects that fill our homes.
Slaouti’s work is joined by that of Ian Malhotra, who works with the traditional process of copper-plate etching in resistance to the speed of digital imagery. Within The Gingerbread House, their work creates a conversation about the nature of craftsmanship and encourages the viewers to slow down and consider the process of creation.
Accompanied by performances and music from Louis Vellacott and Joseph Westscott “Yorke”, the atmosphere curated by Triqis adds a deeper narrative to the intentional creation behind the space.
Through their Clerkenwell showcase, Kwaku Boateng and Erwan Le Bozec demonstrate that the future of design lies at the intersection of material honesty, historic architecture, and shared cultural storytelling. By creating functional art that honors both heritage and modern utility, Triqis continues to reshape the landscape of British interiors.
