The Formations Collection by Joseph Walsh
Irish designer Joseph Walsh has created the Formations collection of furniture.
Joseph says:
In this new work I will create a series of pieces that, while continuing to possess many of the values of my work to date, go on to explore form in a sensitive way. Through this work, I am seeking to emulate nature’s forms with a timeless presence as though they have evolved like a formation or erosion. The resulting composition of form, material and colour creates a sense of wholeness in each complete work.

Boys and Girls Club by Hangar Design Group
Hangar Design Group have designed a Boys and Girls Club located in Wayne, New Jersey.
From the architects:
This 6,500 SF addition to an existing community facility provides four new classrooms and new offices for an early childhood education center. The expansion serves as an enhancement to a stark existing building volume while creating a welcoming and bright face to the entire facility. The roof line floats above a perimeter porch area that also permits for the rectangular volume to benefit from a continuous natural light source, reducing reliance on artificial light.
The materials were specifically selected to limit maintenance needs in the educational environments while elegant details are present on the façade and roofline. The material choices were also based on their sustainability and projected lifetime creating a green system solution.
Compos Lobby Chair by Samuli Naamanka
Designer Samuli Naamanka has created the Lobby chair for the Finnish manufacturer, Piiroinen.
Normally, you might expect a chair like this to be made from plastic or fiberglass, but Samuli Naamanka has instead designed the chairs to be made from a 100% biodegradable natural fibre. The seat doesn’t contain any inorganic materials, not even binding substances. There aren’t even any oil based materials used in the chair.
After the chair has been used for a long time, the seat material can be milled and used again for the production of a new product. At the end of the life cycle, the seat can also be demolished by composting it for about 80 days.
