Pressed Chair Is Light As a Feather But A Lot More Stronger

8:55 am in Chairs, Chairs & Bar Stools, Design, Modern Design by chris

The Pressed Chair is one of the most innovative chair designs we've seen in a while. The Pressed Chair is made out of a single sheet of aluminum that's just 2.5mm and therefore the whole chair is as light as a feather. You can lift it and carry it around the house with one finger, but when it comes to sitting on it you'll notice that the Pressed Chair is actually a lot more stronger than a feather. All that strength that transforms this structure into a dependable seating solution is coming from the decorative indents that are pressed into the chair. The Pressed Chair can definitely be used as a sitting alternative for outdoor or indoor events, provided you can get enough units to accommodate all the potential guests and, in case you really fancy it, could become a permanent feature of your modern home. Would you be willing to give it a try? Via Harry Thaler

Edgewire Table Simple Design Combines Aluminum and Glass

11:16 pm in Coffee Table, Coffee, End & Side Tables, Design, Furniture, Glass, Table by chris

Not everyone in the room will like the idea of desecrating a Pinball machine and turn it into a coffee table like we showed you the other day so for those people I have an alternative today. The simple Edgewire table designed by Alex Sacchetti might be exactly the kind of table you are looking for. As you can clearly see the table has a very simple yet fashionable design and the Edgewire will fit with various other modern furniture elements in your home. The Edgewire table is made of an aluminum edge that also acts as the table's legs and a 12mm thick glass top. While that glass is definitely durable, make sure you avoid unwanted accidents by not placing too much stuff on the Edgewire table. That's of course if you decide to go for such a table design in the first place. Via Alex Sacchetti

The "Faltsessel," Folding Lounge Chair is made from one single piece of aluminum, that has been folded with 100% precision into a lined chair. The almost futuristic concept works brilliantly and incorporating leather to achieve a luxe look is pure genius. Designed by Von Arne Amtsfeld for DUA, one cannot but be impressed by the chair's dominant sculptural facet and its elegant style.

At Milan Design Week 2010 : Aluminum Memory Chair By Tokujin Yoshioka

12:23 am in Chairs, Chairs & Bar Stools, Furniture, Modern Chairs by Tanya

While the "Memory" Chair by renowned Japanese designer Tokujin Yoshioka may not be the most aesthetically designed chair, we still can't resist covering it. Debuting at the prestigious 2010 Milan Design Fair, the chair is already creating a buzz in the design continuum thanks to its material of choice. Made from recycled aluminum, this sustainable chair is able to alter its shape according to the weight or size of the user who has parked his/her derriere on it.

Says the designer:

"This chair might remind us of the beauty in nature with its ever-changing expressions, and also create the impression as if there is no presence of design."
