DESIGN DAILY: Fresh Functional Campaign Furniture

In Category: Furniture

Campaign furniture has been steadily sneaking its way back into mainstream design but these new Anthropologie chairs prove it's modern again. Anthropologie worked with South African furniture makers, Melville and Moon, to recreate the classic foldable, adaptable hardwood Roorkhee chair but then had the local Pretoria textile company, Design Team, upholster it in a punchy pink African cameo pattern for a truly fresh look. This is an example of Anthropologie’s recent efforts to support South African artists and their creative community. Select Anthropologie stores around the US will be carrying handmade products from the country and the gallery at the Rockefeller Plaza store in NYC will be displaying the majority of the South African collection through February 7th.

For Anthropolgies near you visit Anthropologie's store locator and ask them if they carry the Cameo Campaign Chair and other South African products.

Only four of these Moonlight and Magic light dogs will be arriving to the U.S., likely to be in the LA or New York stores

I cant stop thinking that

I cant stop thinking that those vases look like organs (yeah the human kind). I do however, LOVE the illuminated dog, but since there are only 4 of them coming, i might have to stick with my illuminated fireflies that hang from my bathroom ceiling.
