Pop-Modernism from Salone Satellite in Milan










Salone Satellite, an event that occurs in conjunction with Salone Internazi­onale del Mobile in Milan, one of the most important platforms for young designers, this April celebrates its tenth year. Metropolis shows some of examples of "a promising crop of newcomers for 2007".







London-based designerTimothy Schreiber's digitally designed Pan_07 Chair is inspired by bone structure and is produced from a single material with the help of rapid-prototyping technology. This is a method wich "opens the gate to concepts that were previously unmanufacturable,” says Schreiber, who describes his style as ““Pop-Modernism.”


And this one is my favourate:
Ray Chaise by Stuttgart-based Simone Hoedle and Christoph Voelcker from D.sign21. Made of fiberglass and upholstered leather it incorporates loudspeakers, allowing you to plug in your iPod, sit back, and listen to your favorite music.
