Denmark has hosted its share of famous furniture and interior designers. Remember the innovative, futuristic designs of the visionary Verner Panton? There were a variety of materials he sourced for his memorable, trend setting designs; each of which were richly displayed in vibrant and exotic colors!
Some people may say that his design style was a bit retro for their tastes. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, right? Regardless, trends are inarguably and inevitably cyclical. In time, the trends that Verner Panton set had begun to regain the popularity they enjoyed beforehand. This revival was seen during the 1990's and during the turn of the 21st century. Was he truly a master of modern design? That is a matter of opinion of course. However, consider that some of his best known furniture models are still in production. Could the same be said of other designers? Perhaps. But it's a small circle.
The Panto Pop chair displayed above is an outdoor version of the Cloverleaf sofa with the fetching Mirror throw blanket that's made from New Zealand wool, which is the world's whitest, cleanest wool. Why is whiter wool so important? It simply accepts dyes better. The throw blanket is draped across the stacking circular chair available in four new colors this season (grey, yellow and dark green). The chair's recyclable polyethylene makes maintenance a breeze and is also a selling point with an environmentally conscious client.
Above is the Wulff lounge chair with superior craftsmanship that Danish brand &tradition made. Its upholstered form pays tribute to the handcrafted designs during the 1930's. It features a wing-shaped backrest and a sculptural wooden frame. It's available in white oiled oak or oiled walnut.
Pendulum displays its collection of lighting with pendant lights, wall lights, ceiling lights and floor lamps that Israeli designer Dan Yeffet created for British brand CTO Lighting. The mouth-blown glass lights tastefully illuminate the room. The circular shade refracts the light that the cylindrical LED emits.
Miura's compact lights include desk lamps with integrated USB ports for charging, reading lights and swing-arm sconces. British brand Astro Lighting made these lights with tapered shades and a slender neck, which add character to any room, in a number of finishes such as matt nickel, gold and black.
Abisko is a range of gently-rounded seating that Swedish architecture studio Claesson Koivisto Rune created specifically for Italian furniture brand True Design. The collection, which includes chairs, sofas and daybeds, is composed of a solid wood frame with varnished steel legs. Its upholstery is available in fabric or leather textiles. Choices of color include a spectrum of earthy hues.
At a glance, it would appear that the suspended, pivoting gas powered Gyrofocus fireplace defies gravity. But it doesn't! It's safely operated with a remote control that the French fireplace company Focus created. So, how exactly does it work? It rotates 100 degrees as the butane or propane gas simultaneously travels through the sealed pipe and creates the fire. Understandably, it is recommended for use indoors.
Marea has made a respectable range of metal cabinets, drawers and sideboards that design studio Zanellato/Bortotto provided for Italian brand De Castelli. Each of the cabinets is hand-finished and oxidized for an ombre watercolor effect. It's available in golden, orange-brassy ombre and a sea blue.
Sloane is a recessed handle that architect Piero Lissoni designed for the Italian brand Boffi's Aprile and Programma Standard kitchen models. It is formed through a rectangular recessed cutout and recommended for kitchen cabinetry use that don't have handle rails. The recessed handle is available in two varieties: stainless steel or wood finishes.
Adjustable Standing Desk Pro Series is a height-adjustable desk created with gamers, designers and basketball players in mind, designed by FlexiSpot. The desk can be set in three different heights, including over a metre, and can be tailored for taller users to provide extra legroom.
Bolon R is a made-to-measure rug collection that woven vinyl flooring manufacturer Bolon created. The collection is intended for commercial interiors with high foot traffic. Rugs with recycled durable materials are a decorative alternative expecially for those commercial spaces where the larger wall-to-wall flooring simply is not a suitable choice for the project.
Optimise 70 is specialty floor that Belgian flooring IVC Commercial created for the purpose of reducing sound and impact. The recently updated range of this floor includes 54 colors and material effects, including bold blocky colors and options that mimic natural materials.
German bathroom brand Axor unveils minimalist overhead showers that Stuttgart-based studio Phoenix Design created. The showers are available with round or square heads, two spray settings and may be mounted to walls and ceilings. Shower users have this convenience and could choose between the soft wide drizzle or a concentrated stream of water.
Vank Wall 3 Box is a soundproof pod designed as a quiet retreat in offices, created by Polish acoustic design company Vank. The pod, which can be used for focused work, hosting video conferences and for calls, features sound-absorbing fabric and high-performance acoustic panels to cut down noise.
