KFI Studios Partnered with Union Design to Release New Lines

— July 19, 2024 — Art & Design
KFI Studios and Union Design teamed up to launch two new lines, the Avalon Collection and Alden. The Avalon Collection showcases soft, sculpted shapes contrasted against a slender steel frame. The chair has a distinct split design for the seat and back, creating a visually lightweight look. Optional add-ons for the lounge chair include a swivel table and screen, a side table, and a coat hook. This lounge chair has a more upright posture suited for traditional lounging.

Alden, with its new wood top option, is an excellent choice for lounges and collaborative spaces that require adaptable work surfaces. Its portable C-shaped design and integrated handle allow for easy relocation to different work areas, catering to diverse work requirements. Whether working independently or with colleagues, Alden provides sufficient space for a laptop and other work necessities, establishing itself as a dependable partner.
