Design Week – August 2010
Feast your eyes on the latest design trends and luxury objects of desire heating up the design pages this month!
OBJECT: The Frankenstein Chair
This is awesome. An amalgam of several popular chair designs from the past, Swiss design firm STRALA brings us their Frankenstein Chair – truly an eye- catching art piece for your killer pad.
OBJECT: Motifo Fridge Magnets
Hmmm… 1296 fridge magnets? Seems a bit of overkill until you see Peter Locke’s amazing designs. These ‘Motifo’ fridge magnets allow you to bring art into the mundane, and come with full instructions for only $99. I’m in.
TREND: Felt
Felt is coming into vogue big time in artistic furniture design, as exemplified by many pieces shown at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair, and by these amazing stools by Morehead & Morehead or the Joseph Felt Bench by Ferebee and Parkin.
TREND: Interventionist Art
In the category of Things That Make You Go ‘Hmmmm’, may we present entry number 1: Looking across the street every day at Arno Piraud’s ‘Tennis Court’ installation. Getting a little bit funky with your everyday spaces is a bold and exciting way to revolutionize your relationship with environment.
OBJECT: Panton Chair Art
Remember last month’s focus on the Panton Chair? Well, we thought we’d hit you with one more example with this art piece for the wall. It is the Vitra staple cut into visual ‘slices’ of light. Uber-cool.
Amazing stuff! Are you looking to buy or sell Toronto real estate this fall? Call my office today and we’ll get you started out right.
Until next time,
Shaun Nilsson
