There seems to be an upsurge lately in the industrial design industry for wire-framed furniture pieces like those seen in the Icons Collection. Incredibly contemporary, there is something very artistic about this approach that gives each piece a sketch-like aesthetic.
Designed by Jan Plecháč, the Icons Collection is comprised of chairs, tables and stools. The reason this furniture line is titled Icons is because each wire frame takes on the shape of an iconic piece of furniture, such as the Rietveld Read and Blue chair, the Louis XIV, Hoffmann Kubus chair and the Fatboy beanbag.
Practical and good-looking, the Icons Collection will be very coveted by many decor enthusiasts.
