The December 2021 furniture compilation features gravity-defying chairs and modular magnetic cat walls. This month's list showcases how the furniture industry is helping consumers make the most out of their interior spaces regardless of spatial limitations.
The Iso-Lounge Chair, for example, was created by Jasper Morrison and Isokon Plus to push the limits of physics. Acting as a testament to the unparalleled strength of plywood, the furniture manufacturers created a chair that seemingly defies gravity,r resulting in a slim silhouetted design. Ideal for minimalist design schemes, the chair highlights the furniture industry's ability to evolve with consumer needs.
To maximize wall space, the Nyanpeki, by LIXIL Corporation, uses modularity for cat owners to incorporate the pieces into their living space while maintaining design aesthetics. The feline-friendly mounted furniture is attractive to both pets and people.
