Swedish design duo Linda and Jona Netsman unveiled a colorful collection of furniture in 2010 called Design By Leftovers inspired by the lives lived by the materials used. Their passion for vintage is evident in the pieces, which are an eclectic mix of used furniture, scrap materials, airbrushing and vibrant color. Their motto is “pre-loved can be re-loved.”
Frederik Roijé is presenting his latest design Slow Sofa at Galerie Fiebach & Minninger during imm cologne. A collaboration of two pieces of furniture and materials in one object, Slow is a family of nine elements that can be applied in many compositions at various locations.
Ligne Roset has 31 new pieces in the 2011 collection which they are showing at imm cologne and they’re revealing each day on their Facebook page. Here’s a sneak peek:
Simple Bridge by Jean Nouvel
Gig is a new concept in multi-use furniture designed by Toronto-based designer Davide Tonizzo. Gig can be transformed into four different seating options: a chair and ottoman, two ottomans, a chaise, and a full bed. No complex mechanisms to deal with, simply moving around of the cushions and frame.
Designed by Eric Freeman, this one-of-a-kind daybed is made of white oak and approximately 755 individually stacked slats. It is available exclusively through Michael Hennessy Home.
Sergey Makhno and Butenko Vasiliy designed this office for a client whose company produces design accessories. Therefore, the client wanted the office space to directly reflect his business.
Johanna Westin, Lisa Frode and Emma Nilsson are on a mission to bring back the traditional kitchen sofa. They created a kitchen sofa that offers the same functions as the traditional one but has been adapted to our modern way of life.
Italian company Nella Vetrina has a beautiful variety of luxurious ultra-contemporary furnishings, but their white, whimsical pieces are striking to say the least.
The Mustique Lounge Chair from the Lofficina Collection
A very cool grown-up cradle style chaise. Engulfing you in comfort and serious style. Custom upholstery shown in leather with a wooden base in American Walnut. This eclectic upholstery collection is the result of a unique tie between tradition and modernity. I would like one of these covered entirely in sheepskin.
The WIRED store (located 692 Broadway, at 4th Street in NoHo) opens today, and runs through December 26th and they’ve got these Oi modules in stock — I’m loving these Tetris-like modular pieces. Imagine how many possible combinations you could dream up!
