Furniture Inspired by Modernist Architects by Liam Treanor

Designer Liam Treanor is about to launch a brand new collection of furniture, called Santiago, at the upcoming London Design Festival. Included in the collection are the Lina Desk, Paulo Coffee Table, Affonso Stool, and the Louis Candlesticks, each named after several of the acclaimed architects of the Modernist era that have inspired him along the way. You can spot their influence in the clean lines and simple forms that make up the collection.

While the pieces are clean and modern, their wooden forms, made from oak or ash, will still offer a warm feel to any environment. The turned legs look to traditional cabriole legs but with an updated, modern twist.

The Santiago Collection will debut at designjunction during the London Design Festival from September 18th – 21st, 2014.
