Workspaces have been going through a huge shift in recent years with more people collaborating and working in open concept offices, making it necessary for multifunctional and adaptive furnishings. Knoll partnered with Antenna Design to create a new product line called Activity Spaces that let’s you customize your own flexible work environment. I love the Toboggan Chairs (image above) where the raised surface can be used as a desk, armrest, or backrest. Refuge They believe that there are five “go to” spaces that are places, “for temporary group and individual work” that include Refuge, Enclave, Team Meeting, Assembly, and Community. Refuge In addition to Knoll’s already iconic line of office staples, they’ve added some additional products to the repertoire that work in conjunction with the old favorites.

Who says a chair has to have legs? Even a rocker doesn’t need them thanks to two narrow skids that allow for rocking back and forth, right on the ground. The FEDRO Floor Rocker, by Lorenza Bozzoli for DEDON , sports the skids that make it rock while keeping it super lightweight, portable and stackable. Colibri The Milanese Bozzoli brings her fashion and textile background to the design with its woven bands of colors that were inspired by the chair’s bird-like form

Bram Burger and Stijn van der Vleuten are the duo that make up bram/stijn , and their introduction into the furniture world is a series of flat pack, easy-to-assemble designs called Seats and Stripes . The stools, benches, and cabinets are made of minimal pieces of wood that assemble together in a matter of minutes. The furniture is then held together with colorful straps. The straps can be mixed up to change the look of the piece or the wood can be painted or stained to achieve a new look as well. These are pretty smart designs, especially for people who might move a lot, as you release the straps and the furniture comes apart

Ross Lovegrove has designed a new collection for VONDOM called Biophilia. The collection channels the pioneering organic design of Sagrada Famila by Antonio Gaudi and is created using VONDOM’s expertise in advanced roto-moulded technology. The design seems to have sprouted from nature, and appears to open up like a flat-packed party decoration. Its beautiful fluid movement, which is a consistent trait present in Lovegrove’s contemporary designs, is unwavered

The Hood modular lamp, designed by Form Us With Love for ateljé Lyktan , makes a bold statement with the large petal-like pieces it’s made from. The design conquers the desire to concentrate light onto a specific area in hopes of shutting distractions out. It’s also customizable to any size work, conference, or dining table you hang it over. Made of compressed industrial felt modules, you can build the Hood unit to your desired size starting with the basic corner panels. With communal areas often times being open and bare, Hood acts almost like an emotional shelter or a protective shield.
