Modern Furniture Design (Digital Technology)

Luxury Chair

Thanks to digital technology, designers don’t need to be in or near the factories where their work is produced, and they have far greater control over prototyping. That’s why British furniture design has flourished in the last two decades after a very long drought, when it was hampered by the poor quality and lack of imagination of British manufacturers. The first wave of successful British furniture designers, like Jasper Morrison, worked principally in other countries before securing commissions in Britain, and they didn’t have government grants to help them.

We like this curvy stool, which uses pressed corrugated cardboard to create a solid structure, and hides some storage inside.

Using a similar technique, this geometric, sturdy-looking stool looks like it could take on a number of functions.

This solid lounger looks like it was a labor of love, painstakingly created with hundreds of sandwiched layers.

Lastly, we like the different textures created by the different materials in this chair. Below are lists of some of the other cardboard coverage from TreeHugger.

Modern Furniture Design (Sofa and Chairs)

White Chairs


Sofa and Chair created by Italian Designer Domenico de Palo.
The AntiDiva display at the recent Salone Internazionale del Mobile featured the "Cut Sofa & Chair" that was created by Italian designer Domenico de Palo. This example of contemporary furniture design cuts substance down to a minimum. The minimal impact of the sofa and chair is overpowering when you consider that despite its minimal appearance, it can easily accommodate multiple guests for seating.

Norman Fostar

Furniture producer Emeco has sent of some pictures of new design by Foster and Partnersthat will debute at the comingfurniture fair in Milan. It is a slightly anonymous chair and stool called 20-06 by a very famous architect. The new series by Norman Fosterrecalls Emico’s classic 10-6 navy chair which they have produced in over 1.000.000 copies since 1944. 20-6 is super strong, yet uses 15% less aluminium than the original navy chair. 80% is recycled aluminium, qualifying as an environmentally sound product.

The Jet Set lounge chair shown here, which sells for $4,495, is an hommage to the 1928 Le Corbusier C4 chaise longue. Eight skateboard decks are set on a metal frame and topped with cushions made of neoprene, the same material used for wetsuits, so the piece can be used indoors or outdoors.
