Design Miami / 2008 marked the debut of "Bavaria" by Studio Job, a limited-edition suite of five masterfully-executed marquetry furnishings inspired by the 17th and 18th century tradition of hand-painted furniture in the southern German province. Featuring exuberant ‘book-matched’ multicoloured laser-cut wooden inlays set densely, and ‘painterly’, in a Rosewood ground, each work depicts a unique series of Utopian heraldic patterns rendered through paradisiacal rustic iconography, wantonly dismissing the historic distinctions between the fine, the graphic, and the applied arts.

Moss has collaborated with Studio Job on several major collections and exhibitions, including Perished (2006), Homework (2006), Robber Baron (2007), Graphic Paper (2007), and Golden Still Life and Golden Biscuit (2007). Their work has been shown internationally in numerous museums, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, the Centraal Museum, Utrecht, the Dutch Textile Museum, Tilburg, and the Groninger Museum, Groningen.
