Frame Seattle 01 Armless Lounge Chair

This looks like hard plastic (it’s what a grown up Lego chair would look like almost), yet it’s foam with a durable finish that won’t have you worrying about spills. Pretty smart.

“Seattle 01 employs rigid foam construction with a special lacquer finish making it resilient and carefree. The chromed steel armless frame adds a touch of elegance to an otherwise minimal design. Great for use at home or in contract applications.”

Spotlight Floor Lamp

Not too long ago we posted the Photography Floor Lamp, and I’d say this one is comparable- perhaps this one has slightly more of a modern feel…

Reclaimed Wood Coffee Table Duo

Similar in style to the Railroad Tie Dining Table we posted a few days ago, this coffee table duo is superb with its combination of railroad tie wood and simple metal frame.

“Skilled woodworkers transform these reclaimed railroad ties-made from teak, pine, and ironwood-into a nesting coffee table with sturdy metal frames that have been given a waxed finish…Trim, versatile, and at home in any interior, the smaller one stores under the larger table when not in use. Or, use them individually to double your decor options.”

Forgive me if I’m repeating myself, but I’ve yet to see anything from the Bouroullecs that I don’t like. This collection is incredibly simple and versatile enough that you might be able to justify buying the whole lot, citing a sound cause for investment.

“The Striped collection by Ronan and Erwan Bouroullec for Magis is a complete line of furniture for the exterior or the interior: chairs, high and low armchairs, stools, long chairs. This superbly drawn chair has elegant lines that are beautiful to look at.”
