Architect Benjamin Hall started making furniture with his own hands in the middle of the rolling hills of Washington, where the only road marker was “Mile Post 112.” Now based in Arizona, his furniture line, appropriately called Mile112 , could be considered usable art. The contemporary pieces are smart, clean and rooted in architecture. Pictured above is his Moo.less chaise. Magic Carpet  - chaise made with leather and 100 yards of thin Sisal twine, hand-wrapped

Designed by Mikael Mantila, the Marker is inspired by a doodle drawn with a wide marker. Made from colored glass, the Marker is supported by a steel frame.

Mantila designed the Marker table for Protoshop, which is an event put together for Habitare, Finland’s largest interior design and furniture fair held each Fall in Helsinki. Protoshop showcases prototypes from several Finnish designers. The 2010 Protoshop displayed Mikael Mantila’s design, along with 14 other designers work as well.
