Haunch of Venison's latest exhibition, running until 19 November at their Burlington Gardens gallery, showcases a new body of work by London design duo
Barber Osgerby. The project, called Ascent, includes eight new pieces which were informed by the structures of movement. The designers drew from their childhoods for the project - where boat design and aeroplanes, respectively, were a source of fascination.

Edward Barber said of the exhibition: "All these pieces are produced by skilled craftspeople who are able to combine computer-aided production techniques with their traditional skills, something that we refer to as engineered craft", says Edward Barber.
