Wether you like this quirky chair design by 56th Studio or not, you can’t deny that it stirs some sort of emotional reaction. In that sense, they could be equated to art that can be sat upon. 56th Studio is a multidisciplinary design studio, involved in graphic, product, prop and set design, to name a few. They describe their style as “luxe-personified yet kitschy, neo-ethnic, eclectically bold and youthful”. We like these chair designs because they are surprising and different. Given that most of the chairs seem to have somewhat of a face, it seems they have their own personalities. The goal at 56th Studio is to create designs that are not only functional but that also communicate something. What are these chairs saying to you? Visit 56th Studio for more fun.

La storia inizia nel 1928 con Carlo Boffi che, da artigiano, si conquista la fama di uno dei migliori intagliatori di sedie, capace di riproporre lo stile tipico francese del periodo Louis XV – Louis XVI.

L’azienda

Nel 1953 iniziano a collaborare i figli Federico, Roberto e Michele e nel 1968 viene costruito il nuovo stabilimento di Lentate. Arriva poi il momento della tecnologia – intagli in legno, lucidature, laccature e qualità dei materiali – ma arriva anche la decisione di uscire dal piccolo mondo della Brianza ed aprirsi al mondo con la curiosità di chi sa fare ma anche di chi vuole esplorare ed imporre cose nuove per poi fonderle nella propria azienda. Forse e’ proprio questo il vero DNA della Fratelli Boffi, nata e riconosciuta per un mobile “che dura nel tempo”, che ha permesso all’azienda di crescere e di espandersi all’estero e soprattutto nel campo delle grandi forniture

Available in a plethora of finishes, the collection features plenty of dark woods, metal legs and lounge-worthy chairs and sofas. Not one to shy away from accessibility, Philip Nimmo designs everything from chandeliers to sconces to side tables. His latest collection hit showrooms last fall.
Nimmo’s work is recognized by his signature embellishments and many of his design inspirations stem from fashion. Vintage bangles and pendants inspired the Ramona side table, for example, which features a gold-leaf interior and Starfire glass top. Additionally, the Martin dining chair is described by Tamar Mashigian, Marketing Executive for Phillip Nimmo, as “a black dress with a most fabulous buckle across the low back.”
