A Mixture of Furniture Works by Jean Prouvé
Last night I went on a bit of a knowledge jaunt and sent myself back in time to find out about previous designers, philosophers and thinkers, something I've found myself doing more and more of over the past year. My library of design books is slowly reaching the realms of uncontrollable, but I can't
The Making of the Series 7 Designed by Arne Jacobsen
This video is extremely old but I was blown away when watching it this morning and it sort of led me onto researching a bit more into Arne Jacobsen and his works, particularly the Syveren (Seven) series chair. This pressure moulded veneer chair seen here is apparently one of the most sold chairs in
A Selection of Furniture by Bruno Mathsson
I'm positive you'll all agree that we've had some absolutely stunning furniture featured on the blog over the past month, I've had a blast learning about all these different designers and their works.

Wright Auction House, Furniture by Børge Mogensen
Yesterday a fine fellow pointed me towards the Wright auction house website, a company that’s based in Chicago, Illinois. They’re known world over for specialising in modern and contemporary design, selling architect designed furniture from individuals such as Frank Lloyd Wright, Frank Gehry, Ch
Selection of furniture from Finn Juhl
In a bid to keep my mind off the shop for a moment, I went on a search for a little design inspiration this morning and ended up visiting the work of the late, great Danish designer Finn Juhl. Finn was known as an architect, industrial and interior designer as well as a master of furniture. As one o
Mario Dal Fabbro Sculptures
I have to say, when I came across these sculptures by designer, writer, craftsman and sculptor Mario Dal Fabbro they really did blow me away, I took an instant liking to them. I also enjoyed the imagery and close-up details, all of which were taken by Maison Gerard where they’ll be holding an exhi
Stephen Kenn: The Inheritance Collection
I had heard about this project previously through other websites but when I came across the video last night on vimeo it really blew me away. Absolutely stunning filming by The Process Collective who made this piece on Stephen Kenn and his newest project “The Inheritance Collection”. Stephen, fo
Case Study Imagery by Vitra Design
This morning I enjoyed having a browse through the Vitra website which always showcases some great furniture, I think they're one of the better websites to have a look at and they seem to take great care over their web presence. Obviously inspiration isn't always readily available on these more corp
Maison Louis Carré by Alvar Aalto
Today I thought I'd bring over this imagery that I found last night thanks to my random perusing, it always leads me into good spots around the web. Usually I start with a designer of some sort, this time Alvar Aalto, and I head out with the intention to learn something new and end up finding an abu
Mathieu Matégot Works Photographed by Cédric Buchet
I decided we'd start the week with a little blast of design inspiration from the past, visiting the work of multi faceted designer Mathieu Matégot who today presents us with these clean cut and minimal pieces of furniture. Yes, once again I've brought across an individual that no longer graces this
Maruni Autumn 2011 Furniture Collection and Project Interior Shots
This morning I decided to bring across some imagery from furniture company Maruni’s website, my last post on the Maruni Collection by Naoto Fukasawa in early 2011 was very popular but this one offers up something different. It’s a selection from the website’s catalogue for Autumn 2011, basical
