The chair is undoubtedly the most redesigned object by industrial designers each year for the designed week. This year, I had the opportunity to see an array of new chairs.

I would like to document a few of the remarkable ones–

1. Zig Zag and Tam Tam Stools: Finished in glossy vivid colored lacquer by Polspotten,that can also double as side tables. They are stackable, fun and sturdy.

2. OTO chair: This chair by One To One is a single material: the assembly process does not require the use of screws or metal inserts. The chair comes from a single mold, packaged in a recycled and recyclable pulp pack.

3. Loop pouf: The purpose was to compose a huge variety of combinations of several poufs in different environments, whether it is a hallway, a bedroom, a living room, or a children’s room.

4. Due piu: The chair by Acerbis looks like 2 floating rollers with a minimalist steel frame and Mongolian fur. All three modes of use are surprisingly ergonomic and comfortable: regular sitting, side sitting with one arm resting on the upper roller, and reverse sitting.
