Henning Stummel's Compact Furniture Collection is Sustainable
References: nomad.london & dezeen
Henning Stummel is a London-based architect who launches a compact furniture collection that puts emphasis on sustainability during London Design Festival. The capsule consists of a two-seater sofa, a coffee table, and an armchair. Each of the designs can be flat-packed and are consciously created to waste as little material as possible. With a strong minimalist approach, Henning Stummel boasts stylish compact furniture through five components — "the minimum number of pieces that the architect needed to get complete stability for the frame."
The offerings in the flat-pack capsule boast one piece of plywood and are upholstered from a single leather hide. This approach to compact furniture design assures that the piece is ultra-stylish, as well as sustainably oriented.
