Campeggi

April 21st, 2011

Italian company Campeggi have a knack for working with designers to create innovative transformable furniture with the flexibility to fit into today’s ever-changing workspaces. The studio creates unique pieces for lovers of dynamic and contemporary interiors, and each piece serves several purposes without occupying too much space. The simplicity of the transforming mechanisms maintains the functionality of its designs, making each piece easy and practical.

One of our favourite pieces on show at the Milan fair was the ’Dynamic Life’ sofa, designed for Campeggi by Matali Crasset. This adaptation of the classic recliner consists of seven sections that can easily be folded and re-arranged into several seating variations, including two armchairs and a lounger.

The Sosia was also featured in Milan, and is another fine example of the Campeggi’s modular approach to design. Comprising two seats that can be pushed together to form a bed or separated into two arm chairs, this design whimsically alludes to a camping tent with its extendable fabric cover that can be zipped to form a private indoor space.

What Can Design Learn From The Sex Pistols

With little to no discernible talent or musical ability, The Sex Pistols became one of the most powerful forces in modern popular culture. No ads, no radio play, no major media – and only a working band for two years. They galvanised the fury of their Monarch-hating, Thatcher-loathing generation and lead the anarchist crusade with a spikey-headed army of passionate disciples in their wake. When was the last time design made you feel like that?
