Coalesse, a leader in premium live/work furnishings, is pleased to introduce SW_1; a comprehensive new conferencing collection for the creative class. Designed by Scott Wilson and MINIMAL, SW_1 is a clear alternative to the generic conference room. Its designed to enhance social connectivity, help foster collaboration, and provide participants the freedom to change postures and positions while remaining entirely engaged in their meetings.

SW_1 includes lounge-inspired conference furniture that features a lowered-height table with a conference lounge chair creating a hybrid collaborative space thats part conference/part lounge. The remaining elements in the line, standard and occasional height tables, low-and high-back lounges, and conference height chairs support all of the settings that are utilized during the knowledge creation process (i.e. socialization, learning, collaboration, and focused activities).

The conference-lounge chair provides ergonomic comfort enabling a more relaxed lean back posture and more freedom to move than typical conferencing chairs. The lounge chair refers to iconic mid-century forms, while employing advanced materials and processes to achieve a contemporary expression and unique behaviors, even swiveling back to center when the occupant leaves, to instantly reorder the room.

The low collaborative table expresses a more social and informal experience than the conventional conference room solution and features a tablet that extends off of the table to allow for the creation of a personal work zone. The tablet allows users to access and use personal devices (laptops, etc.) without having to change their relaxed postures and disrupting the flow of the meeting. The tablet comes in two finishes to match the trim, as well as grommet and wire management packages.

SW_1 makes Coalesses commitment to sustainability a tangible reality. Made of aluminum and steel, the chairs and tables are almost 100% recyclable. The mesh and 3-D knits are woven for each chair offering a no-waste solution during manufacturing. The upholstery elements on the chair are designed so that they can be updated over time while re-using about 85% of the existing product. Snap-off cushion components offer a practical, low-cost solution to extend the life and use of the chair and alternative to having to purchase new furniture.

The SW_1 collection boasts a simple, yet all-inclusive statement of line: conference lounge and standard height conferencing chairs that can be ordered in 10 knit colors. SW_1 also includes occasional tables, works tables and standard and low conference tables in a broad spectrum of sizes and materials, including round, square, super-square, rectangle and super-elliptical. They are available in Coalesse full palette of glass, wood veneers and stains and laminates. Its also available in white Corian tops with a light or dark trim package. All SW_1 products are BIFMA-certified with a 10-year warranty.

To complement the SW_1 collection is the all-new Power Pod. In the simplest terms, Power Pod is a design-conscious, portable power source and accessory tray all in one. Power Pod is clever, intuitive and timely. Not only is it a beautiful accessory, it is also completely necessary in a world of ipods, ipads, cell phones, laptops, etc. Power Pod is the first well designed power strip to deserve to be used on top of the table where users can most naturally interact with it, said Robert Arko, VP, Creative Director for Coalesse.

PowerPod has dual intelligence for working with both the SW_1 table grommet or on any work surface where there is no grommet. An accessory tray sits on top of the power source when not in use, providing an organized home for shared materials and tools typical of a working collaborative space. It is portable and can be used with any table on the market.

PostHeaderIcon The 2010 Collection From Objeti

Objeti, an American furnishings manufacturer from Cleveland, Ohio, have sent us photos of their 2010 collection of stools, tables, and lighting.

.

Drop Stools
Objeti introduces two new low stools, Drop 20 and Drop 25, which are made from a combination of eco-friendly wood seat and precision machined aluminum legs. The concept for the stools derived from the production of the Soft Tools felt lamps, which uses large wood blocks to hand form their shapes. The stools become a homage to the felting process. The wood seats are composed of unusable wood drops from local woodworkers in the Northeast Ohio area.

Twiggy Light
Objeti introduces Twiggy, a multi-adjustable wall mounted LED Light inspired by the Prouve Potence Lamp. Twiggy is designed around two ball & socket joints which allows for an extremely versatile wall mounted lamp that can be moved to a multitude of radial positions. The lamp is constructed of anodized aluminum, available in black and red. The lamp can be mounted with cord exposed or hard wired into a wall.

Soft Tools Pendant Lamps
Objeti introduces Soft Tools, a series of hand pressed, naturally dyed, felt pendant lamps. The Soft Tools forms are derived from the cutting tools used in Objetis workshop. The series consist of 3 shapes representing tools; chamfer, radius and ball. The lamps use LED bulbs and are available in 2 naturally dyed felt colors; Burgundy and Taupe.

Hangman Floor Lamp
The Hangmans design is an honest reflection of its functionality. 3 high powered LED strips are placed at multiple angles in each channel to give the largest light spread possible. There are 2 light channels on the Hangman; one vertical and one horizontal above. Both light channels can be controlled individually using a dimmer to customize the lighting experience. Objeti prides itself on the small details (such as the connection of the arm to the base and the small reveal on the back of the arm which houses the wires), and craftsmanship.

Aerialist Series Tables
Objeti introduces The Aerialist Series, a set of transformable low tables, available in 3 different configurations, which can easily flip to become a cushioned seat, tabletop, or a combination of both. The design of the tables are an honest reflection of their functionality. Objeti believes in the idea that less is more and prides itself on attention to detail and craftsmanship.

PostHeaderIcon Vintage Looking Bathtub With Curved Design – Roman Bathtub by MAAX Collection

Roman = series by MAAX Collection features two kinds of bathtubs: freestanding and drop-in. The main difference between them is that the drop-in bathtub features a whirlpool system while the freestanding one doesn’t have it. They both has a vintage look that reminds a fireclay tub of the end of the 19th-century. The vintage design is characterized by a rectangular shape and billowing curves from top to bottom. Edges are soft and smooth and blend into the whole, creating a dramatic look fit for an emperor or empress. The Roman bathtub demonstrates traditional craftsmanship coupled with the latest technologies and looks simply amazing. { MAAX Collection | via Furnishism }
