The Isola Collection by Gumdesign is Full of Eclectic Geometric Shapes

The Isola Collection appears to be made out of oddly shaped panels. That is because the chairs and couches in the Isola Collection were inspired by rocks found on the beach. As those who have walked along pebbled seashores before will know, these rocks come in all shapes and sizes and don't group themselves accordingly. So furniture inspired by them should be just as eclectic.
Designed by an Italian duo behind Gumdesign for both Giovannetti Collezioni and Sacerdote Marmi, the Isola Collection also features simple marble tables. The pieces have been given a modern touch by way of neon yellow frames that add a pop of color to the otherwise monotonous grey cushioning. Square and rectangular with rounded edges, the Isola Collection is cartoonish.
