Bring a sense of Zen Living to your Home : Yin & Yang collection by Kenneth Cobonpue

These two pieces, the rocking chair, and the love seat are designed by Scott Wilson and they are from its new line of sofas and chairs called Purity. The designs are characterized by highly pronounced curves. Their structure is made of steel so that adds strength and durability and are also covered with a mesh of polyurethane. Finally these pieces look very modern, to bad they are just concepts for now …and one thing that I could add is that the rocking chair would definitely need arm rests, rockers really need arm rests. - Via

Phi-ton Bed : Floating Without a Sub-frame

The iFreezechair was inspired by icebergs - those giant ice blocks with sharp craggy edges floating in the ocean. The shape of the chair is asymmetrical especially when viewed from certain angles. The edges of the chair are not rounded at all but angled every which way just like icebergs. However the seat and the cushions have softer edges. The chair arm rests even lights up. Nice.

Thai designer, Jitrin Jintaprecha used a luxury fabric called Pasaya in soothing natural colorsas the upholstery as well as the cushion material. ELLE Decoration Thailand picked the iFreeze as one of 2005 Hot One Hundred. The iFreeze as an icebergsymbolis all the more relevant today as our world faces global warming issues with melting Arctic ice shelves and break-away icebergs.

Whats not to love about this fresh design from Fut Design? The Croissant Sofa, part of the Bobo collection designed by Kenneth Cobonpue is sure to make a bold statement in any setting. Named for its crescent-looking form, this piece is made in two versions, one suitable for indoors, and another for outdoors. The indoor version is made out of a hand-woven abaca, commonly know as Manila hemp, a tree-like herb resembling a banana plant.

This is wrapped around a steel frame, making it extra strong and sturdy. Similarly, the outdoor version of the sofa is made out of an eco-friendly synthetic fibre on a powder-coated steel frame to withstand the rain, sun, and even snow. The hollow fram is also ideal for cats and other pets to run around in. This sofa is the perfect place to curl up for naps, lounge and relax. Once you sit down, you wont want to get up!
