The Kajen Public Bench by Thomas Bernstrand
Swedish designer Thomas Bernstrand has created the Kajen public bench for the Stockholm based manufacturer, Nola.
From the designer:
Conventional wooden slats form the seat and backrest of this undulating bench, but its design is completely unique. Crafted in an expressive, swooping form that balances atop three structural supports, the bench is made with maximum comfort in mind. One of the first park benches to be accompanied by a footstool, the design invites those seated to put their feet up, or just sit back and relax. The laid-back luxury of this bench makes a unique addition to any public space.

The Flex Coffee Table by Emiliano Godoy
Mexican designer Emiliano Godoy has added a coffee table to the existing Flex collection he has designed for the Mexico City based manufacturer Pirwi.
The tabletop surface is made from thin strips of maple plywood. By twisting and bending these thin elements, a rigid structure is created, which although very strong, is both visually and physically lightweight. The table features a stretched pattern of undulating lines that support a thin glass top. The slender legs of the table are recessed, adding to the visual lightness of the piece.
The Anima Chair by Blubau
Yotam Shabtai and Lidor Gilad of the Milan based studio Blubau have created the Anima chair.

Following a line of contact points between the body and the chair, the sensation is of an infinite and fluid line. Anima is made of 3 mm of stainless steel plate in self production.

The Good King Henry Lamp by StrawberryKingdom
Polish designers Dorota Kulawik and Jan Modzelewski, are both recent graduates from the Industrial Design Faculty at the Warsaw Academy of Fine Arts. The two young designers have now formed their own design studio called StrawberryKingdom, and have created the Good King Henry Lamp as one of their first designs.
The Good King Henry lamp is made out of oak and powder coated steel tubes. It is surmounted by a fabric shade. The authors were guided by the idea of a perfect workmanship. The simplicity of the structural elements stresses their functionality and the combination of the bright colours with the pale hue of the wood gives the object subtleness. The shade was placed on a movable arm, which enables the users to adapt the inclination of the lamp so it best fits their needs and the nature of the interior. The irregular arrangement of the slats gives the lamp three different faces – the shape of the object changes according to the perspective from which it is observed. It awakens curiosity and encourages user interaction.
Aluminium Chair by Tobias Labarque
Belgian architect Tobias Labarque has created an aluminium chair.
Tobias says:
Cantilever-type chair made from a single piece of perforated aluminium plate. there are no joints, no connections, no welding, no details, … just a (meticulously) folded plate.
The chair is stackable and is fit for both indoor and outdoor use.
It looks quite aggressive, but sits very comfortable.
