The jumper chair consists of one continous oversized woolen knitted cover, with qualities very much like that of a jumper, the knitted cover is wrapped over the solid wood structure and bent to steel legs. The cover is knitted on a “knit and wear” machine that is adapted for clothing garments but this is where the fashion and design production processes divide. One the garment is completed it is then run through a high degree wash to attain a seamlesss and upholstered effect, eradicating most of the stretch from the wool but presenting a high quality fabric and is suitable for contract application. The jumper is available in three different colorways.

Wrongwoods seems like an adequate description of the colors used for the different wooden home furnishing pieces offered through Established & Sons- but really it’s the combined last names of British artist Richard Woods and designer Sebastian Wrong, as part of a collaboration project hosted by E&S. The unfashionable, yet recognizable Wood pattern used for this line of utilitarian cabinets conveys a fashionable message in the unusually colored items. The typical materials used for these pieces are: timber, plywood, paint, clear lacquer and sometimes 6mm toughened glass.

It isn’t a peg meant to fit in a triangular block of wood. But it is made of spun small striped pine and lacquer wood. It is not an umbrella to float atop your summer cocktail. But its surface will safely steady your summer cocktail, while its stem is sturdily planted in the grass-adorned soil, or wherever. Andreas Engesvik’s first solo project for Wallpaper* in Italy is a delightfully whimsical lawn table, available in three colors.

The HAY-produced, moulded plywood Shanghay chair is composed of four small boards that fold around each other to form “the simplest chair imaginable.” Originally conceived for the Danish Pavillion for the Shanghai World Expo 2010, the chair was created to be a single segment of a long social bench that extends throughout both the inside and outside of the pavillion, in collaboration between BIG and Jeppe Hein. Multi-colored and easy to assemble, dissemble and reassemble, these pieces offer the versatility to create whatever hybrid design of the Shanghay you like.

Wood and metal are furniture staples, but they have been classically rethought by Michael Young for their roles as components of the Lancaster chair. The cast aluminum seat and back are created to be indestructible, without compromising their chic, wearing either dark anodized or machine polished finishes. The wood legs are available in natural ash-wood and dark stain ash-wood. Emeco’s debut of the chair collection by the British designer will introduce the company’s first foray into component-based design. The Lancaster chair is brought together with materials meant to age richly, and maintain its stance as a good, sophisticated standard.
