Around the Corner is the name of an exhibition of four pieces of furniture by architect Amanda Levete of Future Systems for Established & Sons. These pieces focus on how to make use of the corner of a room and are sexy, intelligent designs that are very organic and fluid. Levete looks at the relationship between space and object, and each piece is named after a point on the compass. North is a fibreglass shelf and South is set of two Corian shelves. East is a marble table/desk and West a wooden bench.

Simone Harbert created her An Lena chair as part of Parasites & Hybrids, a student exhibition at the Burg Giebichenstein College of Art and Design in Germany. The piece is a parasitic prototype, which cleverly supports itself by gripping into the masonry work of the walls it leans against. Harbert’s idea is that with lightweight and mobile furniture, urban landscapes can quickly be transformed into community spaces.

Singapore’s Air Division will be in Milan next month with at least 5 items to showcase. All have clean lines and a no-nonsense look about them. The mixture of thick and thin (positive and negative space) of the Unit Shelf is particularly appealing, as are the angles of the 2 chairs. And the Pebble table is too smooth not to drool over.
