This is one of my favorite chairs, it the Egg Chair an all time classic by Arne Jacobsen, which still looks as contemporary as when it was first designed some 50 years ago! As you can see my favorite color is the red one.

What is so unique about the + Egg Chair is that you can swivel it around to have an conversation facing the person, or just turn it away from other if you want privacy! It has a tilt system for relaxed lounging and the high back and curving elements are reminiscent of a traditional wing chair. Together they cocoon the sitter in a single-piece molded shell that appears to hover over the floor. Almost 50 years after its design, the Egg Chair is still used in advertising, film and television as a symbol of sophisticated urbanism. The wool version comes in black, chartreuse and red and is US$5398, or if you prefer the black leather one, that will set you back a cool US$10,680.

I would love to explain what + Birth really is, but here I try! It is a kind of modula furniture system that you can reconfigurable in various shapes, such as table, cabinet, sideboard etc, just let your imagination run wild!

The only descriptive text I found for it is “price shown for individual piece in matte lacquer finish. also available in wood, polished lacquer, or macroter.” Each piece of birth will set you back US$1,150.

Carpet is the way to go, be interesting to see how comfortable it is. But then again carpet??? Olivier Gregoire created this amazing semi-formless piece of furniture called + Tapisofa that can be a couch, chair, lounge or whatever else you can think up…as long as it’s in a corner. It’s actually “a carpet with an unpredictable natural shape” and it “can be modulated thanks to it’s soft frame.” Brilliant. Unfortunately it’s only a concept at this stage.

This furniture is located and made for a new space: the corner. This carpet with an unpredictable but natural shape will create a new place to sit. It can be modulated thanks to it’s soft frame…
