“We receive the supply direct, from the original manufacturer through a dedicated re-processor to our injection-moulder in London,” said Pli’s Director, Christopher Pett in an email interview with The Able Gamer, “so there is no other material mixed in with the original plastic.”

This Chair prototype has been made cardboard tubes from the La Tercera newspaper printer paper rolls which makes it an immediate winner in our books. A brainchild of the Chilean design studio Onceneto, the studio had to incorporate steel to prevent it from collapsing.

When it comes to leather, unless you are able to carefully maintain and take care of them, chances are they will wear out easily. We have seen most leather made furniture such as chairs, sofas and the usual couch at home and if we fail to address the proper way to clean them or care for them, they will soon loose their aura.

But thanks to innovations similar to seat covers, Cover my furniture now offers a great way to bring back the luster and add some ideas to present home furnishings as well. Leather covers can cover up the worn out home pieces and project a better image. Better yet, if you have the traditional cloth covers, you can also turn to these leather covers to change the style that they normally had.

Not a bad way to brighten up your home especially if you are thinking modern these days.

For most people who have wooden furniture at home, the maintenance issue is perhaps one of the stirring problems that people have to deal with. Making sure that their shine and overall appearance will not be compromised, people often turn to the various chemicals to ensure the quality wooden finished these days.

But that was before Cashew Corporation was able to come up with the Cashew Nut Shell Liquid, a less toxic wood preservative for wood crafts and furniture preservation.

One of the major problems with developing a totally organic wood preservative system was cost, but the new wood preservative described would provide a solution to the problem because it was relatively cost-effective, Surendra noted.

He said that wood preservative made by CNSL in its natural form was reported to protect wood crafts and furniture against termite attacks and possessed water repellency. Several studies had shown that activity of fungi and termite was less in CNSL +Cu treated blocks than in untreated blocks and blocks treated with CNSL alone.

We all know that plastic has been hit hard by the eco-friendly practices today but you cannot discount the fact that compared to traditional furniture, putting hard plastic to use is way better that throwing them away.

The Shanghai Riddle looks a lot like the glorified and designed mono block chairs, made of hard plastic furniture that some people are turning to when it comes to chairs and stools. The Shanghai Riddle is quite deceiving. Thanks to a different type of design, they are made to look like wooden chairs but are actually hard plastic which homes can use since they are more affordable and lighter to move around.

Baas’ interpretation comes in the form of hand-carved elm replicas of plastic mass-produced furniture, highlighting the contrast between treasured Chinese handcraft and contemporary, mass-produced and mass consumed. As with all Baas’ work the unlikely aesthetic is humorous but thought-provoking rather than gratuitous.

In perhaps what best describes this yet to be named chair conceptualized by Alessandro Beda, here is an innovative way of putting a unique lounge chair to use. But to get it done, Beda will need 100 pieces of shock absorbers to make it work.

The Untitled Chair

The intent is to come up with a lounge chair similar to the LC2 Petit Comfort by Le Corbusier. If all goes well, this is something that will really be interesting. Hopefully though the shock absorbers to be used maintain the same height since no one wants to sit on a bumpy chair to gain comfort.
