Crate expectations
Established & Sons works with the best in British design talent to produce quality furniture designs for the global market. And Jasper Morrison is part of that talent pool. His latest product, The Crate Series for Established & Sons, grew from a collaboration called The Crate. The product's name says it all: it's a crate that can also work as a bedside table or as storage units. With The Crate Series, Morrison has provided insight to furnishing for small and constricted living spaces.
Good habits at Habitat
Habitat can do no wrong. Season after season, under the creative direction of Tom Dixon, the company rolls out contemporary designs that stand the test of time. On every product, designers are required to tell their story about how it went from the concept phase to become a three-dimensional object. The standout design this season is a chair called Cole, a curvy, egg-shaped piece designed by Alex Dreyer who clearly had comfort at the top of his priority list.
'I wanted to create a chair that feels as comfortable as it looks,' says Dreyer.
Sofa, so good
