ICFF 2010 in NYC

Well it was a whirlwind of excitement for us during ICFF2010! Not only were there a jillion parties and events to attend but we also hosted two Danish designer friends for the week. You can imagine it was more than a little overwhelming for us, so we do apologize for our late coverage of the event. Despite the lack of rest, we had the pleasure of meeting some really fabulous new designers and saw some of our old favorites. We’ll be featuring some of the fun designs we discovered at the show over the next couple weeks. But for now, here are a few highlights from our ICFF 2010 experience!

Tom Dixon’s entry exhibits gave a wide overview of their famous line of products and provided a beautiful backdrop to the event.

One of our favorite designers Jaime Hayon unveiled his latest creations for Lladró at ICFF2010.

Benjamin Rollins Caldwell of BRC Designs never disappoints when it comes to creative furniture but it’s also pretty comfy too. His PVC chair provided us with a much needed respite during the show.

Mirrored Elk Lights by Light/Play

The zinc finish on these Louis Zinc stools by Reeves Design will develop a gorgeous patina over time, adding depth and character to the pieces.

We got a kick out of the Illuminated Chair by Martha Sturdy. It’s lit from within and changes colors for a subtle drama.

A unique bicycle helmet hanger by designer Sung Kug Kim was part of the Contemporary British Design Exhibits.

We thought Myungseo Kang’s Book Lights were really clever. The lights gave off a nice subtle glow.

Pimp My Eames Chair! A Music Lovers Dream Seat

Stopped by Dijital Fix on Bedford in Williamsburg, Brooklyn the other day and stumbled upon this menacing musical sculpture. Part hip-hop, part Memorex Ad ,we loved it so much we decided to find out more about who designed it. An inquiry with the sales guy at the counter provided us with a few clues:  the designer was a friend of the owners and this chair may have been in a big time music video. After some quick research, he was able to come up with a website for the artist.  This is what we discovered.

The designer Mikal Jessie Hameed aka M11X, has a background in film and music video production. The son of a jazz musician, Mikal spent most of his early years acting and performing. A move to NYC transformed him into a set designer, and eventually production designer.

Colorful Sofas and Chairs for Spring from Anthropologie

They call her Francine but this sofa from Anthropologie looks more like a Camilla or and Ella to us! The sofa’s cotton-linen upholstery is digitally printed with a reproduction of a watercolor by the legendary Vera for those desiring a dramatic piece that’s also elegant and sophisticated.  Anthropologie’s colorful line of sofas and chairs makes feel like Spring has finally arrived!

The Paddy Chair

We don’t want to give you the wrong idea, this is not turning into a Chair Blog (one of our must reads btw), but we found this one a little too late for our 10 Quirky Chairs post yesterday and we could wait one single minute to share with our readers. Full Story »

10 Quirky Chairs You Could Actually Sit On

Introducing Nemo by Fabio Novembre, a concept we love! Sure it’s a little disturbing.  The white mask really freaks us out, we mean the one the woman is wearing not the chair (if you’re even looking at the chair).

Oh the silliness of the Design Virus Chair by Pieke Bergmans, it’s like having your own life-size Monsters Inc. doll.

We want to give The Memory Armchair by Ole Jensen a great big hug. And this chair looks like it would hug back.

The Hoodie Chair by BRDA is a novel concept, yes, but it’s hoodie would also useful storage. A great idea for restaurants and lounges.

Arrrrgh! I  am the Monster Chair by Marcel Wanders for Moooi. I act scary but I am actually just drawn this way.

In the future all furniture will folded and bolted together. The Felt Chair by Lothar Windels has seen the future. Results above.

We think if you name your chair after cheese, we should want to eat it. So why don’t we feel like taking a bite out of the  Mozzarella Chair by Tatsuo Yamamoto?
