Relaxation Pod

4:01 pm in Furniture, Living, Sleep by Troy Turner

A response to increasingly urbanized environments, the SleepBox is a contemporary piece of furniture designed to be resting spot in semi-public spaces like airports and offices. To withstand constant use, the solid shell is composed of hardwearing, durable HIMACS that  also makes the seamless appearance possible. It’s as visually captivating as it is functional for catching up on a little R&R.

Designer: Caspar Lohner

Seamless Bathroom Concept

3:01 pm in Bathroom, Living by Troy Turner

This bathroom concept by Barcelona’s Art-Tic Design Studio features customized pieces molded to give the illusion that bathroom elements like the sink, toilet, and bathtub are fused with the surrounding structural elements like the floor and walls. Pictured here, elements blend seamlessly with the concrete floor almost as if they have pushed their way up from the ground.

Squishy Chair

11:35 pm in Living, Seating by Long Tran

I love the Bounce chair  by Véronique Baer. It’s a foam sculpture which transforms into a soft and comfortable seat at the moment when someone sits on it. When the person stands up, it’s built-in memory resistance restores the original shape. So fun and playful and looks darn comfortable too. DO WANT!

Designer: Véronique Baer

Chair in a Chair

11:49 pm in Furniture, Living by Long Tran

Armchair “IN” isn’t the first of dual-combi chairs. In fact I’ve seen a handful of variations this past year but this one seems to nicely hit a balance between aesthetic duality and versatility. Playing with the idea of “internal content”, you can pull out the core and use it as a foot rest. Pull it out slightly to the side and you have an instant side table with convenient storage opportunities for CD’s (so 90′s) and magazines on the opposite side.

Designer: Renzo Menegon

Chair Brought to You by Smarty Balls

11:43 pm in Furniture, Living by Long Tran

Jenagh, in Farsi means sternum; the flat bone shaped like a capital ‘T’ located in the center of the chest protecting the heart and lungs. The Jenagh chair has a light-weight metal structure enabling various sitting positions via smarty balls! I’m so serious right now. SMARTY BALLS. It’s supposed to be more comfortable, flexible and accommodating.

Pet Stool, No I’m Serious

11:39 pm in Living, Seating, Stool by Long Tran

Project “Pet Stool”, just a little something from Eyal Hirsh to bring a bit more joy and playfulness to our drab and stooless lives. The stool is made out of oak wood, solid yet a warm material. (HA!) The upholstered leg penetrates the seat  and just beckons to be played with. Inside that leg is a solid leg that keeps the stool stable. It’s humorous and I think quite comfortable to sit in. Not all furniture has to look like it came straight out of Dwell Design and no, that wasn’t a jab at Dwell. We love Dwell.

Perplexing Wall Clock

3:01 pm in Living by Troy Turner

Using the same lenticular printing technology as many image-shifting postcards and “wiggle pictures,” the AM/PM Wall Clock by Studio Dreimann allows the viewer to read both AM and PM times by simply changing their viewing perspective. It may look like the most simple of clocks from a direct front view, but take a few steps to the side and with an illusion of depth you’ll see the numbers almost magically change to PM

Designer: Studio Dreimann

Cradle for Adults

11:33 pm in Living, Seating by Long Tran

Why should babies have all the fun? We all like to feel comfortable and secure. The Cradle  came out of research regarding children with RMD or rhythmic movement disorder. The chair provides a safe, relaxing environment for them to calm their senses but the solution seemed applicable to anyone looking to escape the rigors of a 9-5 life. The entire piece is flatpack ready and all materials are sourced from environmentally friendly resources, right down to the glue that binds the initial plywood layers.

Designers: Richard Clarkson, Grace Emmanual, Kalivia Russel, Eamon Moore, Brodie Cambell, Jeremy Brooker and Joya Boerrigter

Light as a Feather Shelving

3:01 pm in Furniture, Living, Shelf, Shelving, Storage by Troy Turner

Plyght is a clever shelving design by Joeri Reynaert that features a long, fluid bend on its wall side that not only stabilizes items but hides its fixture elements, giving the appearance that its thin body is floating effortlessly against the wall. To accent the the illusion, this functional prototype also integrates upwards and downwards lighting. Molded wood and 3D veneers give this modern presentation a retro feel that will fit nicely into both contemporary and classic settings.

Designer: Joeri Reynaert
