Flat Table by Flo Design by Evan Orensten
Flo Design's Flat Table was inspired by synesthesia (a sense of "seeing" a color when hearing a sound, for example). The table top has an LED light source which shifts colors based on environmental changes. Eri Nagashima is the designer behind Milan-based Flo Design.
Featured at the Cologne International Furniture Fair at the Design Spotter booth.

Active Furniture
Active Furniture, a project by Spanish designers Virginia Pol, Ferran Lajara and Cristina Guardiola, uses counter-intuitive design as an antidote to our increasingly sedentary lives.

Skram Wood Drop 14 Stool
It's a hunk of tree. Look closer. It's still a hunk of tree, but that's the point. The Wood Drop 14 stool by North Carolina-based Skram basks in all its imperfect glory, its naturally occurring cracks and flaws turned into valuable assets simply through their presentation. Skram's lead designer and owner Jacob Marks looked for these beauty marks, or "checks," in found, reclaimed or...
