MIURA Barstool

Name one thing about this bar stool that isn´t innovative. Whereas an ordinary bar stool is a clutter of components and materials, Miura manages with just one. And this is not just any material: reinforced, injection-moulded polypropylene is lightweight, strong and, equally important, inexpensive. With its curious, angular and, at first glance, rather uncomfortable looking form, Miura plays a starring role in the provocative oeuvre of Konstantin Grcic, a man whose universe has been the inspiration of many a fellow designer. Unlike others, however, Grcic is not all about form: the stool sits like a dream and is stackable in the bargain. A tour de force.

Playing with opposites like light and shadow, space and substance, this table brings all to rest in one satisfying whole. Splayed wedge feet contribute to the table’s remarkable stability.

Whirlpool Duet Washer & Dryer

The Duet washer and dryer reflects Whirlpool Corporation’s new visual brand language that was created to leverage the brand to create brand-appropriate user experiences. It uses geometry, intersecting lines and faceted surface help to convey a clean, crisp and fresh aesthetic to the consumer. The “water drop” shape of the door and control area was developed as a visual metaphor for clean and fresh. The bowed surfaces were used to create slightly feminine qualities with a gesture that appeared to cradle the clothes inside. In-house
