Seen in profile, "AVL Koker Chair" by Hans Lensvelt could have a Greek nose, lacking any aquiline convexities like those displayed by "N.U.D.E"(N.ew U.nclothed D.ressed E.dition), designed by Wa.De.Be. Which do you prefer? A chair in the style of Milo’s Venus or à la Dante Alighieri?
Both "Endless" by Dirk Vander Kooij and "Maurits" by Fred&Juul are into ballet. And they challenge each other with dexterous dance steps without the need to play "Swan Lake" on your living room stereo. Vote your favorite etoile of tables… they’ll both surprise you by dancing even when still.
A wireframe leaf, softly folded at the angles, is the organic concept of "Mü", designed by Hermann A. Weizenegger. Whereas the stool from series “A Tempo”, created by Pauline Deltour for Alessi, has a more rigorous formal line. Which is for you?
Designer Sebastian Herkner presented "Bell Table" at Salone del Mobile in Milan. Blown glass and brass are combined to create a transparency gradient. Thomas Bentzen does not admit shading in his colors. "Around", inspired by the Scandinavian masters of design, is 100% uniform.
At first glance it looks like a single piece. But "Seattoo" (winner of the Red Dot 2011), is composed of two stools that can be nested together to interact in an unusual manner. The harmony of forms of "Falon" by Tabanda also hides remarkable structural complexity. By joining the pieces you obtain an undulating wooden bench.
A clutch like a weapon of mass... seduction. Raulwolf unsheathes a chic battering ram, penetrating in shape and scintillating in material. Baquera counter-attacks with "Cobalt", a purse in acrylic and metal that can be folded and then returned to its original silhouette. Pick your Cupid’s arrow.
With the darkness as a backdrop, series "Neo3" evokes styles such as art nouveau, cubism and rondocubism typical of the Czezh Republic, the country of origin of Svetlana Kozhenova. Instead "Cassiope Lamp" by Max Sauze is an intricate labyrinth of folded aluminum, in which light is dimly reflected, like a Northern twilight.
