I love this bit of ‘crisis’ furniture - that's the actual name of the shelving unit, which is a gorgeously shaped white unit that has brilliant, permanent, orange objects as part of the design. That is so cute. I bet it looks rocking when you’ve put your own books and bits in there and those orange objects subtly stand out.
The cool chair and lamp, also pictured above, were also designed by Swedish design firm Cate & Nelson who will be showing their pieces at the Stockholm Furniture Fair Greenhouse Exhibit in February.
I love the gorgeous pivoting, black lamp as well. It is called the ‘twist’ because you can twist the shade to divide into three panels to create various light configurations. Clever.
