Style speaks volumes in this white sofa from Atelier NYC. The designers for this piece were A. Piazzesi and C. Bimbi. You can see from the squared off ends the contemporary design influence. I do like that the frame is elevated off the ground by small furniture feet. I find that the frame creates a box feel and that the seating section creates a nice box on top of the frame. The two elements just seem to go together for this design, thus creating a nice architectural shape. The white sofa is available in both fabric and leather upholstery. More information: here.

A platform bed should have good symmetry and use simplicity in how it is constructed. The minimalism is what attracts me to these bed models. I do believe that you can draw more attention to other decorative pieces in your bedroom when the bed itself does not dominate the space. "Maly" is a platform bed by Ligne Roset that uses symmetrical forms in how the frame and platform connected. The wooden frame is cleverly put together creating a minimal look, but also adding a bit of flair to the design. More information: here.

Many people contact us looking for small home office furniture since space is so tight in urban areas. Particularly people in lofts, flats, and apartments cherish every square foot of space. Families are also moving closer to town and needing more flexibility in room design where perhaps home office furniture and a gym is combined. The product here is a concept from Ligne Roset designer, Eric Jourdan, called "Hyannis Port". I absolutely love this setup in white lacquer. The chair is a great match and creates a wonderful work environment. The way the bottom is finished off with a metal rail is very cool. It creates a bit of openness that differs from most desks which finish all the way to the floor. More information: here.
