\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

David Adjaye <\/strong>for Knoll: The Washington Skeleton<\/a> and Skin\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

David Adjaye’s cantilevered chairs establish a play between propping and balancing, so that they are simultaneously functional and sculptural. Washington Skeleton is reduced to a fine geometric lattice while its inverted counterpoint, Skin, offers a colorful envelope to the same form.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Zaha Hadid <\/strong>for Citco: Tela Shelving<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to design aficionado Lisa Roberts<\/a>, Zaha Hadid\u2019s new shelving collection with Citco \u201cblurs the boundaries of art and design.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

UNStudio<\/strong> for Artifort: Gemini<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Gemini comprises two asymmetrically-designed seat elements and a small matching table to offer plenty of scope for variation.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Daniel Libeskind <\/strong>for Poliform: Web<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Just like the Internet allows users to browse and use a collection of contents which are connected to each other by links, WEB – with its alternating blocks and voids – presents a brand new bookcase concept with a strong visual impact and devised for the most disparate uses.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Nendo <\/strong>for Emeco: The SU Collection<\/a>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Su, a traditional Japanese concept meaning minimal, served as the primary inspiration for this new collection of stools and tables made from reclaimed materials.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

MVRDV\u00a0<\/strong>for Sixinch: Vertical Village<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/em>Vertical Village<\/em><\/a>: a self-organized and initiated manner of city building inspired by richness of informality found in East Asian settlements prior to being overcome by economically-driven block towers.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Charles & Ray Eames <\/strong>(1958) for Vitra: Aluminium Chair EA 101, EA 103, EA 104<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Vitra has now launched models EA 101, 103 and 104 that belonged to the original 1958 product family and was first marketed as the Aluminium Dining Chairs, expanding the selection of chairs in the Aluminium Group with models that are smaller, lighter and brighter.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Nendo<\/strong>:\u00a0<\/span>print-chair<\/a><\/p>\n

A chair whose surface mixes two different patterns, created by printing woodgrain patterns onto wood with an already distinctive grain.<\/em><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n

Daniel Libeskind\u00a0<\/strong>for Lasvit:\u00a0<\/span>ICE<\/a><\/p>\n

A bold, geometric chandelier that achieves a \u2018one-of-a-kind\u2019 luminosity through the delicate and fluid quality of hand-blown glass.<\/em><\/p>\n
