Sculptural Handmade Makemei Furniture

Sometimes the designer’s thought exceeds the structural limits imposed by the materials used for creating the furniture. Here is the great example, the Makemei furniture collection designed by Camiel Weijenberg and Talenia Phua Gajardo. Makemei is the union of the Chinese-Mandarin “Mei” – gorgeous, and English “Make” – do, make. And the name for it is rather suitable. The sculptural pieces of furniture will turn your home into the art gallery. It will surely draw everyone’s attention due to its unusual and creative shape. Some may seem abstract enough that you might not know what the function is at first. Have a look at the sofa “aj double chair”, designed so that two people can sit facing each other, or the “RD Table”, with its inclined surface for increased visibility of books and magazines. All the furniture is handmade.

The NOOK Chair & Foot Stool by Henry Sgourakis

Henry Sgourakis is an Australian designer who was influenced by the warm memories from his childhood. He grew up in his Grandma’s house in post war Australia. The design of the NOOK chair pays homage to the lace doilies that decorated the interior of his grandmother’s home. In a world where technology seems to almost dictate our existence Sgourakis intend was to create a piece of furniture that would remind people of the simplicity of life as it was. This model was created by knitting with a strong frame in a circular pattern, mimicking a spider’s cobweb. The handcrafted chair looks fun, creative and sturdy. The cord used is UV protected, so it is suitable both for indoor and outdoor interior. It is not only a piece of furniture but also a great decorative element.

LaRoche Chair by Milla Rezanova: Challenge to the Law of Gravity

The La Roche Chair by the Russian designer Milla Rezanova is a one amazing chair. It has an unusual design which will certainly draw everyone’s attention. This chair seems like it is floating and it is hard to believe it is suitable to be sit on but at the same time it is very stable. You may think the whole weight of the chair is supported by the sharp and narrow pointed leg of the chair. La Roche is interesting not only from the point of view of the shape but also because of the combination of colours (brownish-red and white) and materials (wood and plastic). No doubt this chair will bring refined elegance to any interior.

ABC Chairs by Roeland Otten: an Alphabet to sit on

The designer Roeland Otten, based out of Rotterdam, the Netherlands, has recently presented ABC chairs, the prototypes of the letters in the alphabet. As you can guess there are 26 models in his collection which are made of lacquered MDF with hopes to mass produce these chairs with a lighter more durable material. The seats can be arranged to form words so they can perform a communicative function. The idea of the designer is that smaller size ABC chairs would also be applicable for children’s interiors, such as libraries and schools. Limited editions of prototypes can be produced upon request. ABC chairs were produced with the help of Fonds BKVB and Materiaal Fonds voor Beeldende Kunst en Vormgeving.
