“Heritage Boy” is Lee Broom’s third collection of furniture design which embraces a “classical fusion of the old and new”. The eye-catching “carpentry” sideboard “in the images comes with a very daring look but with a high practicability as well.  Having three drawers, four cupboards and a considerable amount of space, this sideboard could be the answer to your storage needs. The finishing material is wool and the overall effect is that of a “Persian rug design with British crown jewls”.  The dimensions are as follows: 205 cm Width, 49 cm Depth and 65 cm Height. These definitely reminds us of old stories with adventures, maps and treasure chests.

I have to admit that I’m fascinated about the pieces of furniture that seem to float, and this piece designed by Ronald Tuber is a really beautiful piece. The flowing movement has resulted in this three dimensional S-shape turning into a well balanced and elegant piece of furniture. The rounded off top can simply be opened with two dampers. The sideboard is secured to the wall at 20-25 cm from the floor, which makes it look like it’s floating. This piece of furniture is 3150 euro and you can get it from here.

The Pion Chair is about highlighting the contrast between the two elements that compose a chair, the structural mechanical element, and the human interaction element. Rather then starting with the structural and then putting the human part on top, the designer moved the structural to the outside and the interaction to the inside. Thus, both elements live on the same plane with one another, rather then stacked. Also, the inside appears to float on its own since it does not interact with the outer frame on the backside. This creates an interesting visual effects which adds emphasis the division of the elements, but it also serves a functional purpose. The disconnect allows the panels have a bit of movement to them, thus allowing for a bit of flexibility when accommodating a user to avoid an overly rigid feel. – Sent via email by Alek Shnayder
