Bear Me : A Very Unusual Chair by Ontwerpers

Will — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 00:04:26 +0000

I don't really know what to say about the "Bear Me" chair from Ontwerpers except it fits with the rest of their furniture designs as very unusual. The fiber reinforced artificial resin structure is handcrafted and "inspired by the outspoken deformed shape in nature, the way we processed the material resulted in a seemingly chaotic pattern of frost flowers". Made and delivered on special request. 145 x 90 x 62 cm See the rest of the totally unique furniture from Ontwerpers of the Netherlands here.

Aladino Up : The Modern Floating Bed from Alf Group of Italy

Will — Wed, 18 Nov 2009 16:02:54 +0000

The Alf Group of Italy is one of my favorite up and coming European furniture makers, and I really have to say their new “Aladino Up” suspended platform bed is a step in the right direction. The collection also features wall mounted storage drawers to complete the illusion of a suspended bedroom set and nice touches like the upholstered grid patterned headboard, soft touch closing drawers, and orthopedic slats that cushion the platform frame for a comfortable nights sleep.

The Shapely Contour Dining Table and Chair by Bodo Sperlein

Will — Sun, 04 Oct 2009 01:33:18 +0000

Designer Bodo Sperlein will reveal his shapely Contour Table and Chair at this year’s London Design Festival. I find the looping shape rather creative and characteristic of Sperlein’s previous works. The chair “exudes a simple elegance, and has been designed to look like a single sculpted sheet. A ribbon-like profile draws the eye effortlessly around a series of loops terminating in slender legs that conceal their true strength”. The Contour Table and Chair are available in grey or red lacquer, or Walnut. See the rest of the stylish collection of designs from Bodo Sperlein here. Via The Contemporist
