Solid high density cork with a low density black stripe – very nice little stool by Skram. $364. Via Dwell.
furniture: new from 5.5
5.5 produce some very intersting quirky designs and their new flat-packed stool and pillow is so exception. As is their take on the ubiquitous wall decal – vinyl puddles on the floor with their very own koi. Nice.
furniture: blue
A great little stool, perfect for a shot of colour, by Jens Fager for Muuto. It’s part of his raw series. Hewn from pine and painted in strong colours the series is great. Via Elle.
object: new from cinqcinq
I love these designers. They are just plain cool. I’ve blogged about 5.5 before (they did a set of shelves using Veuve Clicquot boxes as drawers during Milan). There are actually 4 of them – Vincent Baranger, Jean-Sébastien Blanc, Anthony Lebossé, and Claire Renard and they set up their Paris based studio in 2003. . Their wit and intelligence and careful execution draws me in everytime. Here’s a few new things from their shop…a bar of chocolate that tells you exactly how many calories you are consuming.
Plus this elegant little side table, tumblers and beaker and a score board. Tennis anyone?
