Ane

The Ane stool has solid timber slats of timber that appear to float harmoniously, yet independently from the timber legs, above the steel frame . The designer states that the seat, hand crafted in certified eco-friendly timber, is formed through the unique use of multiple pieces of one shape of wood positioned and cut in a dynamic way. When seated on the stool, the slight rise in angle to the back and the roll off angles on the sides are finished in a way that provides a natural, comfortable sitting position. The Ane stool has just the right degree of complexity to create an elegant finish.

Netatmo Welcome

Welcome’s design is elegant and non-intrusive, unlike traditional home security cameras. Welcome’s sophisticated technology is hidden in a slim cylinder-shaped aluminum body. Welcome is buttonfree, therefore all interaction happens in the companion App. A fine black plastic piece blends with the camera’s lense and covers elegantly the infrared LED and microphone. The pure shape and the warm gold tone make Welcome harmonious. Welcome highly respects the user’s privacy which is also reflected in its design: Welcome blends into each home interior, it blends into the user’s life.
