Director/animator Jonathan Formento at jformento in London: “We’re really excited to share another wonderful 3D animation and film created for HBF, [a two-hundred-year-old furniture maker in North Carolina].

“Bao is the first furniture collaboration between HBF and the AAPI women-owned firm Alda Ly Architecture PLLC, and NYCxDesign Award-winner for 2023.

“Bao borrows its name, and inspiration, from the Chinese word meaning bun, bag, precious, and baby, resulting in a welcoming, fun collection that bridges the gap between formal and informal. Available in a range of performance textiles from HBF Textiles.”
