MSCHF, known for their provocative artistic approach, has surprised audiences with a collaboration with Mercedes-AMG that blends automotive design with everyday life. Debuted at NYCxDesign Week 2025, their exhibition features a collection titled 'Not for Automotive Use', showcasing furniture and apparel crafted from actual AMG components. This innovation draws inspiration from Italy's 1960s Radical Design, marrying high-performance qualities with artistic functionality. Pieces like a loveseat with car headlights and a trash bin activated by pedals invite viewers to question luxury, consumerism, and the purpose of design in our lives.
MSCHF's latest project with Mercedes-AMG transcends automotive design, presenting a furniture and apparel collection that blurs the lines between art, utility, and luxury consumerism.
The 'Not for Automotive Use' collection, inspired by Italy's 1960s Radical Design movement, repurposes AMG components into everyday objects, merging high performance with daily life.
