Carbon Fiber Stone

Carbon Fiber Stone

Applied perfectly to this ultra-contemporary garden setting, Peter Donders’ creative seating designs, the C Bench and Stone, instantly command a strong visual attraction. Each uses a single strand of carbon fiber twisted around a mold. When the mold is removed the resulting structure is organic and airy in aesthetic yet incredibly strong. They’re a surprising solution for both indoor/outdoor seating and exceptional for defining a variety of modern spaces.

Literally Rocking Minimal

Literally Rocking Minimal

Designer Jeppe Worsøe Andersen’s rocking horse transforms an iconic, familiar fragment into a sleek, modern design with a minimalist aesthetic. Inspired by Danish designer Poul Kjaerholm’s famed PK-0 chair, this rocker is both radical in aesthetic and thoughtful in construction. The result is a striking blend of materials including dark, form-bent cherry wood and polished steel that make it a solid, functional toy as well as a sculptural accent for the modern home.

Collaborate... or Don't!

Collaborate… or Don’t!

Designer Seth Moczydlowski had students in mind when designing the Synthesis Collaborative Desk, but there is serious potential here for creative agencies and design firms to want this in their office. Each desk stands alone or fits snugly in a group of 5 when it’s time for group work. The blend of wood and vibrant colors create an interesting visual contrast that also defines individual space when working together. Stackable, durable, and lightweight, they’re a great solution in any creative environment.

Short and Sweet

Designed with such minimal style, the Minimato table deserves an equally minimal explanation: 5 bars, 1 table top. We love it. Nuff said!

Transfurniture

Anyone who’s lived in a studio apartment understands the frustration of not having room for a table. Besides providing a proper place to eat, many times the table also serves as a center point for entertaining guests. This ingenious convertible furniture piece is perfect for compact spaces, instantly transforming from 3 person sofa to 6 person dining table. Simply unfold the top/back, remove the cushions, & expand their legs to create a comfortable space to eat, play a card game, or enjoy other group activities.

Mamba Meets Samba

Mamba Meets Samba

Ok, that makes no sense but I like the ring to it! Anyways, here are two very cool and complimenting projects by our man Kévin Depape. One is the Mamba Lamp and the other is the Elastik Desk. While the Mamba plays on the on the archetype of a lamp by questioning its components; the Elastik revisits the traditional home desks while being inspired by the old classroom desks with storage on top.

This chair rocks!

This chair rocks!

Literally… Granny’s got mad steez in this sexy modern rocker! Characterized by it’s oversized curvilinear form, each part is hand-shaped and seamlessly bound to create a robust, sinuous aesthetic. To soften things up, the design features a blanket adapted to cover the back and seat for cushioning and specialized side flaps that wrap over the user’s lap for comfort and warmth.

Something doesn't seem right here....

Something doesn’t seem right here….

… but that’s the intention! The Equilibrium collection by Andre Cruz has a simplistic, utilitarian aesthetic that is given a sense of lightness and clever character with oddly placed legs. The bulk of each design appears to be supported by just a tiny edge of each leg, creating a striking visual sensation, but in actuality it’s a hidden metal support that stabilizes each corner. The unique construction allows for interesting geometries and angular accents that contrast with the bare upper portions.

Hooks and More Hooks

Hooks and More Hooks

A metal rod, steel base and 19 winding hooks are all that compose the Hook Up hanger stand. Its simplicity and size make it a great for a variety of spaces small and large, from the bathroom to the foyer. 19 is kind of an odd number to land on, but I can definitely think of that many uses!  Utilitarian design at its best.

Steel But Like Sitting On Air

Steel But Like Sitting On Air

A whopping 80 curved steel rods spring out of the Dome stool’s base to create an intricate yet functional “cushion.” In a strikingly polar blend of materials, the base is constructed from raw beech wood, contrasting the hard metal web. The unorthodox seat is surprisingly comfortable and will even give your booty a lil massage too! Get it here!

KIT and DIY

KIT and DIY

The K-I-T or Keep-It-Together Chair is a thoughtful DIY design that’s as comfortable as it is easy to put together. Composed primarily of MDF panels, the shell is held together by velcro strips, giving the chair some flexibility and wiggle room. Optimized for reading, the shape allows the seated person to rest their elbows on the armrests, making it possible to read comfortably for a longer period of time.

Closets Don't Lie

Closets Don’t Lie

The Double Life storage solution was named after our tendency to look well put together when we leave the house, while our closets are left in shambles! The unit contains cubbies of various sizes to keep a wide range of items neat and tidy. Though it looks like a singular piece, each of the eight squares can actually be arranged according to the users taste and needs.

Vintage Fusion

Vintage Fusion

This original seating design called Statthocker transforms old-fashioned 1960s street lanterns into modern, stackable stools that pay homage to the repurposed material. Noticing that local discarded lanterns were the perfect seat height, the designers covered the tops in durable HI-MACS material and left the underside open for easy stacking. As an ode to the origin, LED lights are fitted into a milled recess beneath the seat, bringing new life and functionality to the recycled shades.
