Back to the Future

Behold! The Standard Chair by Uhuru Design. A new take on the traditional Louis style chair, the Standard incorporates the old and the new. The backs are hand-carved, remnants from a chair manufacturer that had gone out of business. Rather than using upholstery, the designers opted for an aluminum mesh backing, and plasma-cut steel seat and legs that add an industrial edge to the classic style. This chair is so fascinating, that it has recently been included in the Brooklyn Museum’s permanent collection.

Hangin’ Out in Style

I hate having coats “exposed” to the hallways or living room; but I also hate having to hang up the coats when I have company. Most coat racks are extremely unsightly and take up unnecessary space, but the Symbol Coat Rack by David Scott of Brooklyn based DESU Design has done away with all of that nonsense. The marriage of clean lines, practicality, and fabulous use of color makes this a must have for any modern interior. The hooks pull out individually so when not in use, it can simply hang as art.

This fabulous accessory and other goodies can also be found at Yanko Design.
