The Scandinavian company Muuto is back with a new lamp that brings LED technology to a slim, minimalistic design they call Leaf . Designed by the Swedish design team of  Mats Broberg and Johan Ridderstråle , the lamp comes in two different sizes ( floor lamp  or  table lamp ) and five colors (black, white, grey, rose, green), making it the perfect universal lamp that could work in any room. The lamp is so simple in design with its rotating leaf-like silhouette that can be turned to shine light on any area where you need it.

The No.3 Stool , designed by Scott, Rich & Victoria of Italian company COVO , uses a complex bent wire frame as its base. The triangular-shaped seat is faceted making it more comfortable than a flat one, but also visually, it’s more dynamic. Available in six colors that will certainly pack a cheery punch to your decor, the stool comes in two heights – barstool and regular seat height.

Barcelona-based lagranja design has created a colorful line of tables, cabinets, and shelves called Midi Colors for the Spanish company Sistema Midi . The collection is made such that you can mix and match the leg, drawer, and door colors to customize your piece to your style. The legs are similar to sawhorses but made of extruded aluminum and in bright, fun colors. The colors take an ordinary-looking cabinet and really jazz it up and make it stand out

Gonçalo Campos has designed a series of clever porcelain platters called Tecido  that looks like a napkin or tablecloth draped over dishware. Campos worked hard to get this process just right – finding a way to give substance and rigidity to a piece of fabric so that they could fix the shape and create a mold. Working with  Vista Alegre , a Portuguese Porcelain and Crystal company founded back in 1824, Campos created the perfect elegant shape that could definitely be mistaken for fabric.

This series of cork and steel stools by Timothy John was designed for New Zealand fashion house, Thanks , who is just expanding into home fashions. Called Sidekick, the stools are reminiscent of old school beakers, the ones we used to use in chemistry class. A lightweight, portable stool, the design is inspired by the cork tops that are placed inside science beakers and the powder-coated steel base gives it a more glass-like transparent feeling

Young Brazilian furniture designer Humberto da Mata has worked with the Campana Brothers and showed some of his pieces in Milan during Salone del Mobile. His pieces are rooted in an exploration of texture and building layers with different materials. I love the colorful, playful nature of his pieces, especially the glove mirrors and stool. They’re kind of creepy, too.

3form is the king of really cool materials for use in the home and office, but my favorite is their Varia Ecoresin  line. These translucent panels are harder than glass and completely customizable.
