“Y” Scalable By Alexandre Moronnoz

Y.jpg

“Y” Scalable was presented at the “2006 Milan Design Week.” The bench is designed for parks and gardens. It reminds me of a boomerang with its aerodynamic shape but I don’t think it comes back if you throw it.

Bibliochaise

Look at me…
I’m comfortable, practical, beautiful.
Put me in a cosy place with a few drinks close to me and you’ll be ready to be seated for a couple of hours… or days.

Fernando And Umberto Campana

the one.jpg

Drawing inspiration from Brazilian street life and carnival culture, the brothers FERNANDO AND HUMBERTO CAMPANA combine found objects “ such as scraps of wood and fabric off-cuts with advanced technologies to create a vibrant, energetic and definitively Brazilian approach to design. Taking their cue from everyday scenarios and using unexpected combinations of found materials “ such as rubber hose, tissue paper, string or furry toys, Fernando and Humberto Campana transform modest materials into objects that celebrate the discarded and mundane and are instilled with the spirit of contemporary Brazil that they describe as “zest for life”.

Chair One By Konstantin Grcic

chair.jpg

Konstantin Grcic was born in Munich, Germany in 1965. After training as a cabinet maker at Parnham College in England, he studied design at the Royal College of Art in London from 1988-1990. Konstantin Grcic creates industrial products widely described as pared down, simple and minimalist. What sets him apart from the minimalism in fashionable currency today is that he defines function in human terms, combining maximum formal strictness with considerable mental acuity and humor.

Fabulous, original and eyecatching are just a few words to describe the beautiful design of the Chair One by Konstantin Grcic. Through his minimalist industrial style, he has constructed a form that’s statuesque, elegant and hard to forget. It is made of a clear coat concrete base with a die-cast and powder coated aluminum seat. The Chair One family is extremely versatile, and suitable for indoor and outdoor use.

The Harper Sofa

domeau_peres_tati_haricot.jpg

Publishers Domeau & Peres are currently producing a limited series of furniture created for the famous French movie Mon Oncle by Jacques Tati made in 1958. The “Harper” sofa is inspired by Mallet Stevens and is reproduced with extreme fidelity to the original. It’s an ironic blast from the past because for Tati, the modern house from Mon Oncle was actually criticism of ultra-design and overconsumption.
