Architecture and Furniture

Monday, October 17, 2005

Designed by Viable - a newly formed studio of London-based, they have various kind of approach towards coming out creative design. Just like architecture, furniture designing has its own set of rules and dimension to follow, and within this limitation the designer has to come up with a win-win solution. That explain why architects like Le Corbusier took the challenger to design furniture.

The image above goes to show one of Viable’s products, it is not only a shelf; the chair is somehow intergraded into the shelf. Space saving solution for a small house.

Back in M'sia, we got our very own creative team, guess what they have come up with? A bench made out of metal cage, kind of spooky right? I bet the maintenance would be way off budget when the wild grass started to crawl their way up the bench, I believe their concept in coming up with the design is "metamorphosis". As time goes by, it would eventually metamorph into a green bench. Image below courtesy of TVsmith.
