Oval Wooden Table And Eames RAR Chair For Your Home and Office

An oval wooden table can enhance the office interior appeal and create a more comfortable waiting area for guests. It can be used as a platform for magazines and serving coffee as your guests wait for you at your home office. It can also create an illusion of space, or reduce the space depending on what you choose.

One unique design is the Wood tulip one from Eames RAR. It has a wooden top with an aluminum base. The base is single stand and is about 1 meter from the floor. The aluminum base gives a unique contrast to the top which is made from wood and the result is a very formal look. If you need to add some seriousness to an otherwise casual looking office, then this is it.
Another variation to the Eames RAR one mentioned above is one with a dark table stand. The base of the table stand is dark as opposed to the natural aluminum color. Since the stand that serves as a base creates the illusion of space in the office, the color black have the opposite effect of making the place look smaller. However, this table looks more sophisticated and is more suitable where space is not an issue.

When choosing an oval wooden table for your office, you need to consider a few other things. These are size, and top finish as well as style. Check if the top of the table is washable to avoid ruining it and choose the most appropriate one for your cleaning needs.

Why Hans Wegner Chairs Are Unique And Popular


What makes the Hans Wegner Chairs so unique? The reason is probably behind the designer and his history. Hans Wegner the designer was born in 1914 and was the son of a cobbler. He grew up learning carpentry from a cabinet maker. He would later go on to making seats.
His cabinet making craft did not stop even after leaving the man who was his apprentice. When he went to study Arts in a Dutch university later on, he found himself in the company of other cabinet makers. It was much later after his college years that he actually met other designers like Arne Jacobsen and began making the seats.

His early apprenticeship under a cabinet maker was instrumental in adapting the style that he used for Wegner the chair. This seat which was once dubbed as the most beautiful chair in the world was what made him famous. He incorporated elements that he learnt during his years making cabinets.

His design of Hans Wegner chairs has been described as functional and thoughtful. The designs were done to create a unique form, but never compromised on functionality. The construction is explicit and the form of the whole seat can be seen.
His aim was to strip all the outer covers of the chair and leave it exposed. This would have been a challenge for the design of Wegner the chair, if it were not for the unique Joinery that is used to combine the back and the seat to create the unmistakable design that is very popular today.

What You Need To Know About Leather When Purchasing A 3 Seater Sofa

3 Seater Sofa
A leather chair in the waiting room or lounge can add sophistication and class. These pieces of furniture can be expensive and you have to be careful not to be swindled. Whether you are trying to choose a le Corbusier LC3 or any other types of leather chairs there are certain things you need to know.

The most expensive of these is going to be the made of precious types of leather such as the aniline. The aniline is dyed but is not coated. The lack of coating gives it a unique soft feel and the grain of the leather is visible. A 3 seater sofa made of aniline leather is the most expensive in the market.

The problem with aniline is it tends to absorb spills and cause serious stains so it needs to be well maintained. Semi-aniline leather has a thin coating applied to it. The disadvantage with this thin coating is that the quality of the 3 seater sofa is somewhat compromised because the grain is not very visible and the patina is affected. The advantage is that the light coating prevents stains from being absorbed into the seat and makes it easy to clean.

A chair like the le Corbusier LC3 has more than just quality leather. It is made of a unique stainless steel frame that adds some touch of formality to it, making it suitable as a lounge seat. The seat is durable and made from a continuous hide of leather making its color, patina and grain continuous.

The Swan and Tulip chairs are among his noted creations. The Tulip Chair was inspired by Saarinen’s distaste for chairs of his time which according to him were ugly as they had too many legs. He took it up as a challenge to come out with a chair that would support body weight without requiring much support. The Tulip design that is seen in discos, offices, and even modern homes is gracefully delicate but ergonomically strong. Another Saarinen chair, the Swan, was inspired by Saarinen’s idea to create an enclosure type seating which offered unparalleled comfort.
