Evolving Shelves

Evolving Shelves

Even with its minimal, seamless aesthetic, the Opencase System has a warmer, handmade feel that sets it apart from other industrial-style universal shelving systems. Working like a peg board, the system evolves with the user’s needs, adapting to function as a wardrobe, pantry, utility closet, library and more! Each component is handcrafted from the very best materials in a palette of steel, solid wood and leather fittings, as well as pieces sculpted from solid composite panels.

Table for Two (or six!)

Table for Two (or six!)

As one of the most important gathering place in the home, the kitchen table has historically served just two functions: a place for eating and working. The Table for Two aims to make transitioning between the two tasks easy by utilizing a series of folds. In seconds it changes from a basic dining table that accommodates six to a complete workstation for two fit with drawers and all! Check out the vid to see the transformation!

The Skinny on Stone

The Skinny on Stone

Piero Lissoni’s DRITTO collection of side, coffee and dining tables for Salvatori blur the line between the material limitations of minimalism. The tables achieve a bold, substantial aesthetic by using ultra-thin slabs of carrara marble as well as post-recycled pietra d’avola and lithoverde stone, but each maintains a sense of lightness from the sheer thinness of the tops complimented by simple, geometric frames. Now you can get that raw, stone finished look without the aesthetic and physical heaviness of large slabs.

Bendy and Beautiful

Bendy and Beautiful

Composed of individual strips of bent eucalyptus wood laminate, the Eira chair’s unique form and material flexibility make it one of the the most comfortable rigid chairs out there. Surprisingly “soft,” the user will feel the wood flex to the curves of the body with each change in position. While somewhat large in size, the chair is distributed unassembled in a compact box where each component fits snugly for easy shipping and construction.

Shelf Yourself!

Shelf Yourself!

What’s more fun than one of those pin-press needle impression toys that we loved to stick our faces in as kids??? …a GIANT one! Besides being über-fun, the PinPres shelf goes beyond the limitations of other shelving systems that restrict usable space with predefined sections. Simply push the object you want to shelve directly onto the pins and voila – you’ve got a custom space to store just about anything. The best thing about it is that you can actually own this one! Get it here!

The other kind of corner...

The other kind of corner…

Shelving units that are adapted for the inside of corners are a common and useful storage solution, so why not expand this concept to outward-facing corners for even more space-savings? Designer Kim Hyung Geun answers this very question with his latest piece- a versatile shelving system that makes the most out of both kinds of corners that are just waiting to be used! Easy to mount and easy on the eyes, it’s a simple way to bring more shelving into compact spaces.

Great Balls of Rubber!

Great Balls of Rubber!

CYQL is a one-of-kind ottoman composed almost entirely of recycled bicycle inner tubes. Kinda like a rubber-band ball, each ottoman is wrapped in tubes of different sizes, textures, colors, and prints, giving each an individual character and unique history! The rubber itself is ideal for reusing not only because of it’s inability to disintegrate back into the environment, but because of its material qualities of being stain/water-proof, elastic, and patina over time.

Roaring 2010s Table

Roaring 2010s Table

From looking at the Elvis table, I assumed that its name and curvaceous form were inspired by the famous singer’s quaft doo! To my honest disappointment, it was just a coincidence! The design is actually a semi-reproduction of a 1920s piece the commissioner had taken a photo of, but with designer David Savage’s own unique design language. It captures the 20s distinctive cultural edge in a modern form that’s simply beautiful.

Dat Weave!

Dat Weave!

The artistic Bocca chair gives the illusion of mass with its expansive, not-so-minimal form, but the unique woven construction makes it lightweight and airy. Manufactured from steel tubing and fabric in an artfully woven mesh voronoi pattern, the design is flexible and and durable, making it a comfortable seating solution indoors and out.

The Elixir Fold

The Elixir Fold

Elixir is a high-quality OLED desk lamp that can fold in three directions and be tucked down along the edge of a desk when not in use. A power outlet is conveniently positioned on its arm so that you can charge your phone or any other gadget using it. The design is space saving and effective. Moreover it is simplistic and maybe this is why I have a soft spot for it.
