Helsinki Design Week







I love bent plywood objects and the Scandinavians seem to be pretty good at it. The patterns created by this shelving unit and the simple lines of these chairs are really nice!


"Magaru, a Finnish company created by designers Naoto Niidome and Mikko Paakkanen, showcased several new bamboo pieces at the 2009 Habitare Fair in Helsinki. One of the highlights was its SEE shelving, a modular system which can be constructed out of three simple shapes. Also on display was the company's sleek OBI Dining room set, the wedge-shaped DAIDAI chairs and the rotating WAPPA storage unit."
