Softa Bench by Tembolat Gugkaev

Juliet by Benjamin Hubert for Poltrona Frau: the Chair & the Making Of

Juliet by Benjamin Hubert for Poltrona Frau was inspired by the Italian renaissance fashion detail called the “Juliet sleeve” – a sleeve that fits the arm tightly and has a large de-constructed ‘puff’ on the shoulder. Juliet’s leather upholstery is ‘tri-pleated’ and utilizes the flexibility and tensile strength of leather.

Is Copy-Paste the Future of Chair Design?

I had saved this post just for the occasion: 5 years Chair Blog. Reason being I want to make this category design similarities a huge item on our blog. The Greek Copy-paste ή inspire-evolve στο design? gave a good example, but there are many more! Even dear Fabio Novembre has his own series of design similarities inspiring us.
