Back to Basics

Most of us would agree our lives could do with a little less clutter. Focusing on this point, we look at design in this vein – furniture and products that honour simplicity.


 

1 | Friends & Founders

No surprise it is a Danish/Swedish company behind these stunningly beautiful, and simple, pieces of furniture. A mix between classic and modern, the collection we see here fit the company’s aesthetic – pared-back forms and clean silhouettes.

These clever little modular elements are simple in form, clean boxes that come in classic colours, but they’re also perfect for keeping a space clutter free. Being available in various widths, depths and lengths means whatever the space, they will fit to suit.

With home entertaining becoming more and more popular, the design of the kitchen is crucial. As they say, appliances should ‘provide assistance,’ not pose another challenge. This minimalist design is just that – functionally simple and intuitive, and slipping into the space quietly.
