Jufuku Bamboo Furniture

Created by Kenyon Yeh, the Jufuku Bamboo Collection consists of a table, stool and cabinet. Each piece is made from sustainable, lightweight bamboo.

As Jufuku means to overlap or repeat in Japanese, Kenyon Yeh used a single shape to begin each piece. He then repeated that single shape to complete each design and create an end result.  By looking at each piece in the collection, the repeating shape in each is easily identifiable.

As Light As A Feather

Designed by Harry Thaler, a goldsmith studying design in London, England, the Pressed Chair is as light as a feather. In fact, this  chair is so incredibly light that it can be held with just one finger! Made of a single sheet of 2.5 mm aluminum, the Pressed Chair receives its strength from the decorative indents pressed into the chair.

The minimal materials used in the Pressed Chair make it environmentally friendly; it is 100% recyclable and produces no waste throughout the manufacturing process. On Harry Thaler’s website, it is written about the Pressed Chair that the “value of design excels in the intent of creating a piece out of one single material without any joints or connectors.”

Thaler’s goldsmith background has led him from jewelry design to furniture and interior design. To see more of his work, visit his website at http://www.harrythaler.it/.
