For London Design Festival 2026, slowform presents Rest, a new tray collection developed with MSSR Works, alongside a selection of slowform garments and objects for daily life at Café Vins in Soho from 17–20 September.

At the centre of the presentation is Rest, a new collection of stackable trays developed with Danish craftsman Mathias Rasmussen of MSSR Works. Rest 01 and Rest 02 are formed around one and two recessed placements, designed for serving coffee/tea or holding everyday objects. Rest will be shown alongside slowform’s Japanese porcelain coffeeware, vegetable-tanned leather accessories and garments developed with John Pawson. Presented within Café Vins’ Dinesen-lined interior, the collection will sit alongside the café’s coffee and publications, creating a setting in which slowform’s work can be encountered in use rather than as a conventional retail display. Across the four days, a small programme of coffee, conversation and sound will accompany the presentation. All pieces will be available to purchase or pre-order.
