Inspired by the simple act of transforming the two dimensional into three dimensional form, Fold is designed to create a strong visual presence in the modern environment. Initially conceived by the designer from one piece of paper, the composition is derived from a series of thin planes that come together to form a cradle that holds soft cushions within. The bent, angular metal base reinforces this idea of sculptural transformation.Creative Direction, Furniture Design2013 -

As it's name so aptly describes, Teamwork™ was designed to support collaborative work, when we didn't call it that...in 1992 we were simply responding to the increasing informality that people were asking to address as they were working together. Orginally introduced by Metropolitan Furniture, the collection struck a responsive chord and signaled a shift in emphasis for the company and in some ways the work place.

The Braemar chair echoes the style of modernists who created a sense of luxury and seductive comfort, without relaxing ideals of simplicity and practicality. Neatly tailored, the chair has a deeper, wider seat elevated on slender chrome legs to give prominence to line and proportion. The collection’s table offering presents a range of sizes to accommodate any need, with materials simply rendered and impeccably detailed.

Drawing inspiration from the structures of the modern built environment, Span is a simple platform designed to support a broad range of functional elements including seating, storage or a tabletop. The platform is anchored by a welded stainless steel base composed of refined forms with architectural reference points. As a basis for seating, Span emphasizes the contrast of soft and hard, of tailored cushions resting on a bridge of steel. However deployed, the design makes reference to classic architectural features—and the dialogue between the support and the supported—in a distinctly modern manner.Creative Direction, Furniture Design2013 -
