Last month I mentioned a great exhibition taking place during DesignPhiladelphia called Four Corners: Design from Philly Surrounds . I had the chance to check it out this past weekend and I would highly recommend if you’re local to Philadelphia that you stop in to Minima Gallery before the exhibit ends on October 20th. If you can’t make it, then here’s a peek: Sideboard by Michael Iannone A variety of local chairs surround a gorgeous table by Bench Dog Design Mio ‘s felt chandelier made using old hat molds Coffee table by Adam Rung with a George Nakashima chair in the background and Philadelphia pillows by Bhaval Shah Bell Cartoloji in the foreground Great wallpaper from local artists including Aphrochic Chandelier by Adam Wallacavage Sk8 chair by Toby Mcqueston Great photo and frame by John Murphy Gorgeous gilded skull by Candy Depew Signals Papercut by Joe Boruchow (he is awesome !!!) There is so much more to see, though, so hopefully you can pop in and see it

The idea From the original jug, he made a mold, filled it with porcelain, and baked it. It shrank 14% in the process

Part of Singularité’s new releases, Watching The Ships Roll In is a beautiful sofa/bench designed by Marie Dessuant made of beech wood and removable cushions. Included in “The Bay” collection, this seating piece is Dessuant’s “personal interpretation of a seaside resort’s collective memory… Influenced by memories of touch such as the salt crackling on the skin, and by memories of states of mind like the strange distance holidays induce during the dense year of hard work.” Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook . © 2012 Design Milk | Posted by Jaime Derringer in Home Furnishings | Permalink | No comments
