Tokyo-Pop small stool / table

This piece comes from Tokujin Yoshioka’s Tokyo-Pop Collection (2002). Injection-molded polyethylene stool/table is suited both for indoor and outdoor use. Its lines were defined by the proportions of human body.

A very useful piece of furniture, it can serve as eye candy, a bedside table, regular side table, a footrest, etc. Your imagination is all that’s limiting you with this piece.

Yoshioka, Designer of the Year 2007, has work in the permanent collections of MoMA and the Pompidou in Paris. This piece can be purchased at DWR

Jerry Lamp

I love this type of piece, it’s functional, virtually indestructible and safe.

Made from recyclable silicone makes it able to be dropped, knocked or tipped over with little concern. Jerry Lamp is soft and durable and because of its pliable hook shape, the Jerry Lamp can be used almost anywhere.

When lit, the Jerry Lamp will get warm to the touch but not hot. The silicone is nontoxic and hypoallergenic. Perfect as a utility light around the house or workspace (or kid’s room).

Panton chair

The Panton chair has won several design awards worldwide and graces numerous museum collections. It offers great seating comfort thanks to the cantilever base and it’s truly shaped to do justice to the human body. The Panton Chair has undergone several production phases and not until resently was it possible to produce it in line with Panton’s original idea – namely from consistently dyed, tough plastic with a matte surface.

The Panton chair can be purchased in several different colors to suit your indoor or outdoor settings. An icon of modern design, with a price low enough to fit just about anyone’s budget!
