Design studio Nendo has crafted a unique sofa system for KOKUYO , complete with high backs, that gives individuals and groups a place for privacy in an office environment. Named Brackets , the seating is meant to “bracket” whoever is sitting, like parentheses. Watch the video for the different variations: There are seven sofa modules and four table types so users can customize to their liking and needs, but also arrange to suit the space.

First, we brought you the swinging table and now we present the Swing Sofa. German furniture designer Werner Aisslinger, of Studio Aisslinger , designed this rocking sofa for Vitra to promote a little relaxation in the office place. The A-frame structure suspends a comfy, cushioned sofa for two, where the smooth motion remains controlled. While it was made for the work environment, I think it’s perfect for a porch or a playroom

The students from the Department of Interior Architecture at Rhode Island School of Design have created a collection entitled Prototyping the Domestic Environment currently being exhibited in Milan at Salone del Mobile 2012 . The five works are interactive and multi-functional with the focus on “the formal adaptation of utilitarian furniture pieces into domestic spatial components.” Each object is not only a functioning interior piece, but they also act as adjustable devices for play, i.e., “tactile or optical sensory exploration or kinetic transformation.” The designs are well thought out, as well as being aesthetically pleasing with their geometric attributes.

Prototyping the Domestic Environment by RISD Students

Throughout his education, Neil Conley has been obsessed with the natural environment and this is reflected in his work both a designer and illustrator. Earn/Urn is the by-product of the Xendless project — Neil’s final year project on the 3D Design course at Northumbria University. The aim of the project was to develop a sustainable carbon-fiber composite, as well as a manufacturing process that made it suitable for the design of fine products. The almost indestructible nature of this material has led to huge amounts of waste around the world. But recent advances in carbon-fiber recycling now make it possible to unlock the fibers from these objects, leaving fibers “as pure as the virgin material,” prime for re-use

Pircher , a company from Alto Adige specialized in wooden furniture for indoor and outdoor use, is participating for the first time at the Spoga + Gafa trade fair dedicated to outdoor life, which was held earlier this week. Designed by Alessandro Andreucci and Christian Hoisl for Pircher, the Evergreen collection is part of the ELIT line, a collection of contemporary and versatile furniture in the name of a fluidity of spaces and functions. Evergreen is inspired by the marine environment and characterized by its use of regatta braid — a kind of rope that is used for the mooring lines on boats. Evergreen is versatile and modular, and includes a two-seater sofa, a small padded chair, a coffee table and a daybed, which may be joined together using the rope module and the addition of mounted tables in wood.
