Sketch Chairs – Mommy’s Chair by Lucy Merchant

4 Comments »

Look closely. Very, very closely. These chairs appear to be a child’s drawing or a delibrate cartoon sketch on paper. But they are not. They are fully 3-D chairs i.e. real chairs anyone can sit on. Lucy Merchant is the designer behind Mommy’s Chair, a series of hand-bent recycled steel chairs with white seats which she says, represents “the spontaneity of a rough sketch.” The metal has been powder coated in primary colours, hues which suggest colouring pencils or crayons used by children. A variety of chair back styles are available. Each style could form a set but the chairs are best as a mixed group for visual impact especially with a matching table. The chairs would make a rather fun addition to a family room or a children’s playroom although they are rated for exterior use as well.cartoon chairs Sketch Chairs   Mommys Chair by Lucy Merchant

The Limes Hotel Opened in Brisbane

4 Comments »

On June 27 in Brisbane, Australia, the Limes Hotel – first Australian hotel to join the Design Hotels organization opened gates. Designed after spending countless hours in airplanes and hotel rooms by award-winning Argentinian designer Alexander Lotersztain, it is located in Fortitude Valley. I’ve decided to publish about this interesting and innovative piece of architecture, because is something new. something that you don’t see everyday and who knows maybe a piece of inspiration for some people.Limes Hotel in Brisbane Australia

The Limes Hotel only has 21 styled lodging-type rooms that focus on guests’ primary travel requirements rather than following the 5-star standards. They all include custom Corian kitchen benches and toilette vanities, timber bed heads, custom aluminum door handles, Luna Textiles curtains and bathroom wall tiles by Bisazza. Pretty exclusive you may say but wait, because each room is hand painted individually using a mineral coating technique.

The hotel also includes a completely open air roof top bar and a roof top cinema (in hibernation until Spring) that will most likely satisfy even the pickiest tourists. – via Dezeen

Dolce Vita Chair and Footrest Set

1 Comment »

A long day at the office deserves at least a couple of minutes of rest in a comfortable place. Stefano Bigi designed the Dolce Vita swivel chair and footrest combo for La Cividina Inc and obviously did a very good job. First thing that gets the attention is the shape and the powerful orange color. Crafted in ABS plastic and with steel painted or chromed, the set looks very unique and has a radical contemporary look. Just by looking and knowing that it’s covered with polyurethane foam and polyester fiber, I can bet the Dolce Vita chair and footrest set is really comfortable. I also enjoy the powerful orange color, do you? – via thedesignblog

The Wave Bookcase from Urbinati

2 Comments »

This beautiful combination of glass and bent, dubbed The Wave Bookcase, was designed by Leonardo Emiliozzi for the Italian furniture manufacturer Urbinati. With aluminum feet and made of crystal and straight or curved plywood, the cabinet comes in two heights and widths, both allowing custom positioning of the shelves. Can’t say if they’re solid enough to keep all your books but unless it’s very expensive, the wave bookcase should be a great addition to your modern office or living-room. That if you love glass. – via Contemporist

The Hive by Mostapha El Oulhani

The Hive” is inspired at the same moment by the natural shelter built by bees and traditional forms of the Andalusian Arabian architecture and it was designed by Mostapha El Oulhani. The modules of arrangement of hexagonal shape overlap so as to draw a landscape within the space and so become an element structuring all around of whom the user can circulate. The bottom of modules is established by a leaky motive which makes reference to the moucharabieh and the graphics of which evokes the disintegration of alveoli which can be observed on certain hives. – Via
