Clothes Rack Combo




If closet space is an issue for you (or is simply non-existent), purchasing a clothes rack is a great way to add some extra storage and organizational options for your garments. While the word clothing rack may stir up mental images of metal racks from department stores, clothing racks today come in a wide variety of styles and materials, with numerous organizational features that can help your clothing situation become even more organized.
Portable clothing racks can be used in a home with or without closet space, and can be particularly useful for renters. Available in numerous finishes and styles, as well as set sizes and adjustable versions, a portable clothes rack is a simple way to get more space for those items that need to be hung up. It’s also a great option if you don’t want to invest in a chest of drawers. Many items can be hung on a hanger, while socks and intimates can be stored in bins.  


 










Lambent Chair by Glen Lewis Steele



Inspired by a collapsible, wooden, giraffe toy from my childhood, the ‘Lambent Chair’ is designed to shed light where you need it. Be it casting a soft light over a room or directing it down onto the fine text of your novel. A glowing switch placed behind the braid allows for the lamp to work by itself when not being used as a seat. However when you choose to sit on its floating seat, your weight compresses an inbuilt spring loaded mechanism. Activating an internal system of tension wires which tighten and loosen like tendons in a finger, causing the lamp to angle down towards you and then straighten back up when you stand. The New Zealand beech wood and Techflex, silica, braided shaft seemingly dangle from the striking, crescent, LED lamp. All adding to the illusion of an ethereal piece of furniture.

Alix Sofa by Tilt, Limited Edition



Internationally renowned French graffiti artist Tilt has collaborated with Amaze workshops to create an incredible and somewhat unexpected new piece of work. Alix , his personal reimagination of a sofa , is an iconic and boundary pushing piece of bold design. Tilt has created a covetable item that combines statement style and quality, whilst pushing boundaries to provide an evolutionary contribution to design led functional furniture. The bold monochrome palette enhances the equally striking contrast of the padded leather with a clean wooden framework. From behind, the sofa looks like another brilliant piece of Tilt’s signature traditional graffiti artwork , but once seen from the other side, it transforms into a luxury piece of furniture, with an inviting erotic edge. Created in France, master craftsmen worked tirelessly over 752 hours to make Tilt ‘s incredible creativity and imagination a reality; suffice it to say, the whole project was undeniably worth every second.




No Sweat Workspace Workout by Darryl Agawin



No, Sweat by Darryl Agawin is a 3-piece workspace furniture set that can transform into exercise furniture. In today’s busy lives it can be difficult to find the time for daily exercise. By combining workspace and workout furniture, it allows anyone to take a break from their busy work schedules and partake in regular daily exercise. This eye catching set of furniture serves to remind the user of the exercise capabilities of their furniture.
The exercises that No, Sweat! utilizes are based on pre-established and well known routines and styles. The basic forms that shaped No Sweat! were drawn from the exercise step, the balance board, the weight bar, the skip rope and the kettle bell. Hundreds of exercises can be extrapolated from these basic structures and equipment.
No, Sweat! can be used wherever desk work is done; from the company office to a studio apartment. This set is designed for everyone, as exercise is important for all ages. No, Sweat! benefits those interested in fitness, yet have not joined a public gym or unable to purchase dedicated home equipment due to a lack of space or finances.
When design No, Sweat!, first hand research was used to establish a working baseline; exploring various exercise disciplines, finding the similarity between various forms. These forms were then dissected and rearranged into a workspace configuration. Pen-and-paper sketching, quick CAD prototyping and full-scale prototypes were used to explore and ultimately refine the myriad of possibilities.
To increase awareness of the project, a short teaser video was released online. Additionally, a custom print titled Curl Bars and Collars, was designed for promotional graphics and lithograph-style posters were designed and printed.
In the same fashion that the 1980s Memphis style design was a postmodern response to Bauhaus’ Form follows function, No, Sweat! proves that one does not need fancy, modern gym equipment in order to have a full body workout. No, Sweat! provides a mental and physical break from the work day and gets people moving.

Poppins by Alessandrabaldereschi Design Studio


 In the Poppins collection by Alessandrabaldereschi Design Studio the upholstery is used to create a visual impression: the illusion of  many pillows laying  on a bench.
The inspiration comes from the Optical Art’s method which, through the use of color and geometric shapes, creates, starting from a plane a three-dimensional optical illusions.
The padding protrudes from the surface of wood, is took down and positioned only where is necessary. Through its three-dimensionality and a slight deformation of shapes, you get a dynamic effect, a vibration enhanced by color.
The cushions become a part of the structure,  increasing the comfort of the seat and representing the aesthetic value of the project. This value comes from ancient times, when the cushions was made with precious materials as a symbol of royalty.
