I recently had the great plaesure to try, style and photography the functional beauty ‘ The Stingray rocker’ and the ‘Pon table’ by Fredericia Furniture.
The Stingray rocker was designed by the Danish architect Thomas Pedersen. Stingray is a dynamic chair that invites a variety of sitting positions. The unconventiontionally organic shape emerged as a response to the requirements of today’s modern lounging requirements. Stingray’s designer , Thomas perdersen, is often inspired by organic shapes found in nature, and found the flowing shape of the stingray as the perfect muse for his final exam project at the Aarhus school of Architecture ion 2002. It’s very easy to see the shell resembling a giant stingray moving gracefully through the water.
The comfortable Stingray invites the user to sit back and relax in a variety of ergonomic positions. The bold design is daring an unorthodox, while at the same time it’s possible to see the inspiration from fiberglass chair designs of 1950’s. With both old and new influence, Stingray fits perfectly in a room of any decorative style.
The Pon serie of side table was designed by Jasper Morrison in 2015.Jjasper Morrison describes Pon as an alternative to the “‘overrated and badly named ‘coffe table'”. Instead of taking of space, the påon tables’ modest size meansd they can be used in front of a sofa as well as a beside a low chair.
Pon is made of solid oak or ash. The strong focus on the material is enchanced by the fact that Pon lacks the usual distinction between table top and underframe. Instead, the table top, column and fott form an integrate whole. The Pon tables stand as distinct yet unpresuming sculptures in any room, in addition to which the solid wood will pastinhate beautifully over time.
