摄影 @ Mathias Nero.Sulla Bocca di Tutti (On Everybody’s Lips) by Note Design Studio // The coveted task of creating the central Design Bar at this year’s fair was awarded to Note Design Studio. Adopting the concept of ‘Sulla bocca di tutti’ (meaning “on everybody’s lips”), the studio’s goal was to create a warm, inspirational and generous experience. “The Design Bar is a full-scale restaurant that only exists for one week. This opens a door to many creative possibilities and we really want to take advantage of this opportunity and create something exciting. Over the years we have spent many wonderful hours in the Design Bar, and now we want to capture this feeling in our design. It is our ambition to create a space that feels warm, visual and inviting for everyone,” shares Note Design Studio’s Johannes Karlström.

SOMA by Studio Marfa.
BRETON by Studio Marfa.
LUNAR Table by Studio Marfa.Studio Marfa at Greenouse // Hamburg-based Studio Marfa presented several new pieces, such as the SOMA Chair, BRETON shelf and LUNAR table. TheSOMA Chair interprets the draft of a lounge chair in an easy way. Limited through the stainless steel frame and shaped with vertical elements of a cantilever chair, SOMA generates a flexible and body adapting space. Inspired by the insignificant structure of wood paneling in concrete buildings, BRETON captures the beauty of this natural influence. In contrast to the heavy concrete surface the thin brass mountings support a light, almost levitating look. The LUNAR Table tells the story of new beginnings in a far away world – the childlike fantasies about infinite space and the incredible expectations in what may be hidden there.

Pony Stool by TORU.TORU at Greenouse // TORU is a young Barcelona-based craft and design company that produce beautiful, simply designed furniture featuring exquisite materials. All the products are handmade by local artisans, and are either unique or produced in small series.

Dowel Stool by Mr Frag.
Cloud Table by Mr Frag.Mr.Fräg at Greenhouse // Australian designer Frag Woodall, aka Mr.Fräg, presented his Dowel Stool, Cloud Table and Matisse Low Chair (not shown). Although we’ve featured both the table and the stool in the past, I think it’s worth while giving these pieces another round of applause. Dowel is a family of stools that celebrate a rich combination of materials with polished solid brass or black seat and simple turned timber legs. Cloud series is a collection of three small occasional tables with tops manufactured in white Carrera marble with a honed silk surface, and legs turned out of American White Oak with a traditional Danish soap finish. Gorgeous.
Rose Coffee Table, Barocche Mirror & Halo Vase by Nikolai Kotlarczyk.
Barocche Mirror by Nikolai Kotlarczyk, photographed inside the Grundtvig’s Church in Copenhagen.Nikolai Kotlarczyk at Greenhouse // Our much loved Copenhagen-based Australian contributor, Nikolai Kotlarczyk (hooray!), presented his debut collection that references the aesthetic, ritualistic and emotive aspects of the catholic church in central Europe. The series highlights the apparent contradictions of the church, a conflict of modesty and opulence, masculinity and feminism, modernity and tradition. These contradictions are highlighted through objects that mix robust materials with hazy transparencies, honest reflections with abstract figures, and feminine colourways with tribal motifs. The ritualistic act of the offering, the use of architectural mandalas and the idea of self reflection are all explored within the series. Go Nikolai!

The chair, made of 9mm moulded plywood, features a sculptural red seat, with thin black lines frame that creates an appearance of an elegant drawing.

The objects come in two individual geometric shapes finished in a special colour palette personally developed by Luca Nichetto.
Bike by Monica Forster for Offecct.
Phoenix by Luca Nichetto for Offecct.Two New Chairs by OFFECCT // OFFECCT launched a number of products, although two pieces in particular caught my attention – Bike by Monica Förster and Phoenix by Luca Nichetto. The inspiration for Monica Förster’s Bike chair came from the cycling world. The chair is built with a strong steel tube frame and fitted with a leather seat which can be easily replaced if needed. Luca Nichetto’s Phoenix chair is a prime example of Offecct’s Lifecircle philosophy. Every detail has been designed and produced to ensure that the life cycle of the whole piece is as sustainable as possible. The frame is made from recycled aluminium, the upholstered parts can easily be replaced and there is great flexibility regarding colours and materials. Fittingly, the chair is named after the bird in ancient mythology that continuously rises from its ashes.

New Flooring Collection by Jean Nouvel for Bolon // With its clean material expression and flexible application, the Bolon collection by Jean Nouvel is a flooring concept comprised of six colour signatures. A departure from Bolon’s typically designer-driven flooring, this architectural edition was conceived with spatiality in mind. The result is a flooring with a textural, hand-woven effect created of woven vinyl in combinations of black, grey, red and blue. This collaboration marks Bolon’s first ever architect-driven flooring concept and directly addresses the concerns of architects in its concept and execution. Colour panes make it possible to have complete control and flexibility within the interior. The flooring amplifies the interior geometry, making it possible to experiment with the layout and the natural circulation within an interior space.
Pilotis by Doshi Levien for Kvadrat // First curtain collection by renowned British/ Indian design duo Doshi Levien for Kvadrat, plays with light, shape and layers. To celebrate the launch, Doshi Levien created Pilotis, a naïve futuristic and architecturally formed installation featuring textured, smooth and perforated textiles. Taking their cue from architectural textures, pointillism and Le Corbusier tapestries, the four new textiles have a gentle futuristic twist.
BAUX Patterns by Form Us With Love // And finally, BAUX launched ‘BAUX Patterns’ a catalogue of ideas designed by Form Us With Love. Catered to specific features, the platform becomes a short-cut to more than five hundred—diverse and filtered—wall patterns, combining the beauty of design with the durability of the BAUX panel properties. After discovering that architects and designers found ‘an infinitive choice’ a little exhausting, Form Us With Love in collaboration with BAUX, designed a platform of monochrome and colourful patterns ready to be mounted on any wall. By using twenty-five colours, in a series of 3x3m recurring patterns, Form Us With Love has created a vast and accessible catalogue of perfectly panelled timber wool wallpapers. 图片 © Designers & Press Office. - 转载自：Yellowtrace
