Luso Lounger by James Uren

The Luso Lounger by James Uren is the young designer’s modern reinterpretation of the Chaise Longue Company‘s classic lounger. Re-inventing it to suit the way in which we live today, Uren adds a footstool which helps use the lounger in a number of ways (a day bed, lounger, chair, footstool), while Luso’s unusual asymmetric form helps make better use of space.

James Uren is a young designer, who studied contemporary furniture and product design at Bucks New University and has just graduated with First Class Honours. He’s also a runner up of Business Design Center New Designer of the Year award.

Prop-er Benches by Oscar Medley-Whitfield

Kingston University graduate Oscar Medley-Whitfield presented these benches that rely on each other for support at New Designers in London last week (6-9 July).

The Prop-er Benches each have one shortened pair of legs so they need to rest on the surface below. They can be arranged freely, providing three surfaces at chair height, table height and shelf height.

Hugo by Kate Pashinova

The Hugo chair by Kate Pashinova is made to reflect Scandinavian style with its minimalistic features. Hugo is simple, but functional: its one arm is designed for hanging your bag, which comes in handy in public spaces like cafes and galleries.

From the designer:

“The special gap between the seat and the armrest allows to keep your bag close to you decreasing the glory of pickpockets and leaving it clean and tidy even in the dusty streets and spaces. Stackable design gives the owner more storage space and freedom, still making the day brighter with its eye-catching colours.”

Kate Pashinova is a young Russian designer and former student of British Higher School of Art and Design in Moscow who is currently moving to Finland to complete her MA at Aalto University.

Man Stool

I’ve just randomly stumbled upon this interesting, to say the least, stool on the internet, but unfortunately, don’t seem to be able to find any information about it or its creator. Regardless, it’s too good not to share!
