A simple sofa bed from Espacio from their Milano Bedding series. This piece was designed by MB Studio and is available in a dozen colors. I like the shape of the side pillows and how they compliment the sofa bed. Price: £1,439. Available: here.

The Grandbazaar Sofa by Maybe Design



















Designed by the Turkish design brand Maybe Design and featured at the recent Vienna Design Week. This Grandbazaar Sofa is an authentic oriental product. This grandbazaar sofa look so thin and fragile, but i think the designer already tested this oriental product for its durability. Nice seating anyway..

The Perillo Chair / Martin Ballendat





















The Perillo Chair is a new lounge chair designed by German designer Martin Ballendat for the Switzerland based furniture manufacturer Züco Bürositzmöbel. A captivate and fantastic seating design made this chair match with your modern interior room. See the image, i wonder is there any adjustable panel that can make this chair easy to control for its height.





















From Züco:

What is striking about Züco’s new Ballendat-designed lounge chair is its futuristic design and its extravagant appearance. The seat surface, backrest, armrests and sub-frame follow a flowing, uninterrupted line and seamlessly come together to produce a single unit. The front and rear surfaces are oriented towards each other and create a sensuous geometry. Martin Ballendat’s emotional design really does capture the spirit of the times.

This is a great idea in seating / bench design while you can sit and play or hear the music at the same time from the bench that you sit on. Designed by German designer Michael Schoner of NL Architects. The designer has designed a bench that plays music from passing mobile phones via Bluetooth. The bench was on display at the Urban Play event 2 in Amsterdam, Netherlands, last month.





















Urban Play is an international project by Droog Design, created and curated by Scott Burnham and presented as part of ExperimentaDesign Amsterdam 2008. See the movie about the Boombench . The following is from NL architects:



















For the design of the ‘Boombench’ NL architects transformed a regular piece of street furniture into a sound system. This seemingly normal street bench reveals its hidden gimmick when it is activated via Bluetooth, allowing the public to play the music on their mobile phones.
