Chair Trends by Dave Nemeth

One of the oldest pieces of furniture is the chair, this functional piece has its origins dating  back to the Stone Age, where Archaeological evidence of sculptural relics at Neolithic building sites suggest chair and bench-like areas. Ancient Egypt has some of the earliest surviving physical examples of the Western world’s use of chairs. Egyptian tombs that have been unearthed contain chairs and stools from as far back as the Egyptian Old Kingdom, about 2680 B.C., well preserved by Egypt’s dry air. Regardless of how far back the design of the chair dates it is the continual evolution and constant reinvention of this exceptionally functional piece of furniture, which continues to intrigue. From British Louis chairs to American Chippendale chairs, almost every notable and world famous designer and architect has at some stage designed a chair, this includes the likes of Macintosh, Frank Lloyd Wright, Le Corbusier all the way through to Philippe Stark and Karim Rashid.

Design with a sense of Humour - by Dave Nemeth

A guide to buying coffee and side tables - by Dave Nemeth

Image
These items are often last on the list when furnishing a home, yet comprise two of the most functional and useful elements within a living area. So often people use upholstered ottomans as coffee and side tables until the glass of red wine or the mug of coffee falls over, generally destroying an item of furniture intended for sitting or resting your feet on. When people start looking for coffee and side tables, the first surprise is generally the slight cost difference between the two. The expectation is that the side table will be half the cost of the coffee table, which generally isn't the case, as there is mostly two thirds of the material used in the smaller item. The amount of labour is similar to both and both are relatively expensive to transport, due to their overall volume. Here are some things to bear in mind when selecting this functional piece of furniture. Square / rectangular and round offer the most flexibility, whilst oval tables tend to be space specific and tend t...
