Furniture & Design Works by Atelier Steffen Kehrle
After a craft orientated week it seemed suitable to highlight work more rooted in the usual design process, and Atelier Steffen Kehrle has been on my list of 'likes' for a while now. Although I say 'usual', their work is far from it, with one of my favourite parts of their studio website being that
Making the Joseph Walsh Enignum Table by Pau Camarasa
A truly breathtaking video by Spanish filmmaker Pau Camarasa, one that I’ve not come across before but has been around for over a year. Not totally sure how I missed it when searching through Vimeo. Although, I have come across the creative featured named Joseph Walsh, in fact we highlighted him o
Furniture Design by Marco Guazzini
Mark brought across some fantastic architecture yesterday from the good folks at Fujiwaramuro studio, I was especially impressed with their interior design and the general layout they opted for within the respective homes featured. There was a real emphasis put on generating a simplistic and natural
Short Film Introducing Beam & Anchor
As we pass through a period of good will and spirit, I wanted to showcase a short film I came across this morning that shares the story of a company that's based around this very same community feel. Once again we are heading over to the creative hub that is Portland, Oregan as Matt Pierce introduce
Reclaimed Wooden Furniture by Hugo Franca
It's not everyday that we're lucky enough to come across works like we have here today from Brazilian artist and craftsman Hugo Franca, but boy does it make your morning when projects of this nature do come along. Hugo is responsible for the bespoke handmade furniture that you see before you, all of
Short Film on Alvar Aalto Exhibition
I think the greatest compliment or recognition as a creative individual you can receive for your life's work is that it outlives you and continues to inspire others after you pass. One designer that refuses to go away in this respect is Alvar Aalto, who Jackson's are currently highlighting in a smal
Views of the Jean Prouvé Exhibition at Jousse Entreprise
Our good friends at WO AND WÉ, a site that I’ve admired for quite a while now, put me onto this Jean Prouvé exhibiton that started last month at Jousse Entreprise, a gallery in Paris that showcases a range of well-known designers like Le Corbusier, Serge Mouille, and Alexandre Noll. Most of whic
Short Film on Vyrobeno lesem Collective
When you sit and consider for a moment how many objects, foods and materials around us are synthetic it makes me feel a little uneasy, I don't agree that price of something is where its real value lies. As time passes I feel myself moving more and more towards items with organic origins, I like to b
Collection of works from Alexandre Noll
We've both been quite taken with sculpture recently given the arrival of a new Alexander Calder book into the office bookshelf, the man was an absolute genius and a big inspiration to lots of you I'm sure. Casually browsing over his work last night I began to long to see other esteemed sculptors and
Short film on Furniture Designer Staffan Holm
There's nothing like a little bit of Nordic design to start the week off, so I was delighted to come across this short documentary which follows the work of Swedish furniture designer Staffan Holms as he prepares for his latest exhibition. This film has actually been put together as part of the fift
CH33 Chair Designed by Hans J Wegner
Last night I thought I'd revisit the Carl Hansen & Son website after I was researching the life and works of Hans J Wegner, a master designer in my mind. All of his furniture is highly inspiring and I love to see the background and context behind each object. Although I'd like to see more of this on
Design Within Reach Presents: Jens Risom
It's always satisfying to be able to provide more context on the designers that we admire, which is why it's such a pleasure to return to a Design Within Reach short film that involves one of the best mid-century designers in our opinion, Jens Risom. Still actively involved in design at the grand ol
