Industrial upholstery is a project from Gilli Kuchik with Gil Sheffi and Ran Amitai, who together make up Tel Aviv-based Bakery Studio , a design collective founded in September 2009. This project explores new ways of upholstering furniture using the upholstery polyurethane foam as the fabric. From the designer: During the research stage of the project, it was apparent that upholstery as a discipline is based on a craftsmanship logic which stayed fairly the same through upholstery history. The Industrialized Upholstery project seeked to create a new upholstering technique which is based on an industrialized logic, and by doing so creating a new aesthetics of upholstery.

By far the most interesting event I attended at ICFF was Designglut’s Uncomfortable Conversations . The idea was inspired by the following quote: A person’s success in life can usually be measured by the number of uncomfortable conversations he or she is willing to have.” – Timothy Ferriss Designers Kegan Fisher and Liz Kinnmark of Designglut curated 16 pieces that were designed to start “uncomfortable but important conversations.” Here are some of the pieces that were in the exhibit: Pre-Handshake Handshake Device by Dominic Wilcox Night Terror by Chrissy Conant It’s Not You, It’s Me / It’s Not Me, It’s You by Ana Linares Chi-Merica by Paul Loebach In Case by Materious Uncomfortable Typographic Situations by MSLK Kevin Carpet Bench by Will Robison of Subports (yup, really a dude rolled up in a carpet.) Heavy by Karl Zahn You can see them all and read the descriptions on the Uncomfortable Conversations website.

And next, designer Ufuk Keskin , who created the Sheetseat , a folding chair from one piece of plywood
