Representing future-focused innovation and sustainable design •
New designs for Pelle Cord and Sit Webbing reflected an ongoing evolution that seeks to utilise weaving and webbing to create foam-free upholstery options. A craft solution to a contemporary problem. Alongside these new chairs, the new Turntable High carries forward the essence of the original – archaic in form the new high version is about balance, craftsmanship and the beauty of simplicity.
Swedish design brand Hem returned to Copenhagen for their third exhibition during 3 Days of Design. Following a wave of amazing press coverage Hem launches their brand-new Palma Poufs by British-born Ghanaian designer Kusheda Mensah - a graphic, arresting, refreshingly carefree family of elegant upholstered seats.
+Halle showroom transformed yet again for this year’s 3 Days of Design. Becoming a café and social hub for the fair, the industrial space proved to be the perfect setting for their product launches, including Shrinx by Boris Berlin, ADP Bench by Spacon, Proto Dining by Nick Ross and Picnic Outdoors by Form Us With Love.
Inspired by the elegance of planetary orbits, the Astro collection features a distinctive design defined by its steel tube rings. These sculptural forms create an external frame that supports a fully webbed seat & back, minimising foam use while maximising comfort. The result is a refined balance of sustainability, durability, and visual lightness.
As 3 Days of Design continues its upward ascent as the international design destination - Relay will be on the ground supporting +Halle, Hem and Zeitraum as they launch major new products and innovations for their collections.
During this year's Clerkenwell Design Week, Baux will showcase their new acoustic collection X-FELT.
Designed by Form Us With Love, the new collection is crafted from GRS-certified PET and engineered to be fire-retardant without chemicals or minerals. This unique process makes X-Felt a truly circular material.
During Milan Design Week, Hem presents Unpacking Hem: 10 Years in the Making — a dynamic exhibition at Capsule Plaza that explores the question, “What is this Hem?” — a phrase that encapsulates the varied perceptions of the brand as they mark their 10th anniversary.
+Halle joined forces with Swedish design studio Form Us With Love to transform the FUWL studios into a Bistro for Stockholm Design Week.
During Stockholm Design Week Baux launched a new material and collection X-FELT. Designed by Form Us With Love the new collection is crafted from a premium, lightweight felt material, made from certified post-consumer recycled PET.
Last month Ago Lighting teamed up with students from ÉCAL's Bachelor of Industrial Design program, under the direction of Swiss designer Adrien Rovero, to design a collection of lighting installations for use in public spaces
