Best of ICFF 2014: Part 3

We continue our trek through ICFF, the International Contemporary Furniture Fair, where we hunt the best modern design the industry has to offer for 2014.

Gorgeous West African inspired textiles from Abi Wright Design were exhibited in the British European Design Group’s booth.

ICFF3-2-areaware-keys

We loved these gigantic brass key rings from Areaware. Most of them are bigger than bracelets which means you’ll never lose your keys again!

ICFF3-3-bend-shelving

Bend released some awesome new shelves that have triangular and linear patterns on the neon brackets.

ICFF3-4-calico-wallpaper

We featured the metallic marble wallpaper from Calico last year and we’re loving the new colors they have now.

David D’Imperio’s linear suspended chandelier looks like a three dimensional topographical map out of anodized aluminum.

ICFF3-8-matter-made

Sauder surprised us and debuted a collection of modern, reasonably priced pieces of furniture that could work well together or on their own.
