Unexpected Place for Pianca’s modern furniture

Tuesday, May 14th, 2013

Pianca is one of Italy’s leading modern furniture manufacturers that specialize in sleek, minimalistic products designed for the living room, bedroom and dining room spaces.  And yet, with a little imagination and a big vision, we found a few of Pianca’s pieces realized in the modern bathroom space, interpreted in a way that exudes nothing but a sense of definitive fit, as if their roots are found in a niche modern bathroom manufacturer like Duravit, Boffi, or Lacava and ultimately proves that Pianca offers versatility in addition to the apparent function and design aspect of its vast product line.

Wednesday, July 7th, 2010

Joanna Opalska, an up and coming Polish furniture designer is full of brilliancy and innovation.  The mastermind behind Opa Design, Joanna’s most recognizable innovation is the multifunctional tile collection which includes white porcelain square 6″x6″ wall tiles which, individually and collectively serve a purpose that’s far greater than just covering a wall with texture.  Each tile offers an independent function, be it a vase, a hanger, a container, key holder and even a lamp and represents distinctive design and textural façade.  When pieced together, these tiles take on a puzzle-like impression, arrangement of which is driven by functional fulfillments and stylistic dispositions.
