Adriaan Hugo and Katy Taplin are the couple behind Johannesburg's Dokter and Misses. Inspired by the idiosyncrasies of their surroundings, their modernist furniture pieces with angular lines have a boldly upbeat energy. Building on its revered "Kassena" series, named after the Kassena people, as an ode to the architecture constructed by men and hand-painted by women, the Horseman bench-cabinet has two parts, one fitting over the other like a man riding a horse. One side serves as a chair with backrest and the other is designed as a two-seater bench. It has a fold-out desk, four drawers on two different planes and a secret compartment.
