Furniture

Biljana Jovanovic, Croatian architect based in Budapest (Hungary), has completed the apartment with unique decorative staircase.  The Emmental Stairs was designed for young and creative family with two small children to combine several functions. Firstly, of course, it provides the connection between first and second floors of the house. Secondly, it visually divides the space of the first floor into dining room and living room. Thirdly, it is great fun for children - "cheese holes" create the infinite field for games. Due to holes, like in Emmental cheese and white color the living space looks very light. Steps are fixed in a playful zigzag manner. According to the author, the triangular shape of the steps also solves the problem of the steepness of the stairs.

We have reviewed lots of architectural projects by Spanish A-cero Studio. This time they've created beautiful furniture items for VONDOM, and we can notice much in common with their architectural design. The awesome Rest collection was inspired by Origami, well-known Japanese art, and includes sofas, chairs, tables, lounges for outdoor area. Geometry, beauty and exclusivity are the base of the concept. Clear lines and simple shapes embodies style and luxury. Of course, all the items can be easily adapted to your needs and wishes due to modular technology. So, the new collection offers the maximum comfort and contemporary elegant design to its users.  

Thorsten Franck, German designer, has created an amazing piece of furniture, called Out of Balance stool. Looking at it, I wonder whether it comfortable to sit. Out Of Balance is a lounging stool for rocking, sitting and relaxing. The stool stands flexible like a milking stool just on one leg - using the principles of a tumbler. The three dimensional base body is formed in a light weight construction out of oak veneer, using a special 3d forming technology. The shape of the stool reminiscent an egg shell. I think this item will be useful for informal meetings with friends or just for fun.

Have a look at probably one of the most versatile and flexible pieces of furniture. This is Cross sofa created by the Italian designer Elvis Pennetuzzo. The sofa is composed of four elements. Here the attention should be paid to the colour combination. Three pieces are white, while the fourth one is red. Very nice mix!
