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.

Doll is the new table lamp by French designer Ionna Vautrin for Foscarini where the shape looks like a cross between old oil lamps and those wooden Japanese kokeshi dolls that have skinny bodies and big faces. The bulging shades are made from glass while the narrow bases come in four colors – red, gray, green, and ivory. To help welcome the new Doll lamps to the market, Foscarini has launched a new Facebook app with the help of Hub09 Social Agency called MyDoll , where you can virtually customize your very own lamp. Using a drawing tool, users get to add outfits, hair, faces, and facial expressions that will then be displayed in 3D for you to share. Dress your very own doll here !

The No.3 Stool , designed by Scott, Rich & Victoria of Italian company COVO , uses a complex bent wire frame as its base. The triangular-shaped seat is faceted making it more comfortable than a flat one, but also visually, it’s more dynamic. Available in six colors that will certainly pack a cheery punch to your decor, the stool comes in two heights – barstool and regular seat height.

The geometric-shaped Lampframe pendants are made from thin wood strips that are joined together to form triangular frames. The overall shape is formed when four of those frames are connected and then clamp around the lamp cord with the aid of magnets. Made by German designer Herr Mandel , the lights are not about hiding the bulb but rather showcasing it, as you would a picture in a frame. The fixture comes in your choice of untreated oak or oiled mahogany and can be purchased via designspray .
