Here are the bold and statement pieces that caught our eye this month

1. Paradigm by Montana Furniture

Paradigm is a modern iteration of the iconic modular sofa system originally designed in 1969 by Danish designer Erik Rasmussen. Defined by sculptural clarity and remarkable adaptability, the design shifts character entirely through its upholstery, making it as relevant today as ever. Debuting in modern iterations under the name Paradigm, the sofa marks a new chapter in Montana Furniture’s universe of versatile, enduring design. Paradigm made its debut at Montana Furniture’s flagship store and showroom during 3daysofdesign in Copenhagen, Denmark.

2. Rocky by La Chance

Designed by Charles Kalpakian, Rocky is a sculptural piece that can be used as a console or a credenza, but will also accommodate books and objects to become the most graphic display or bookshelf.

3. The Gene Chair by Klekktic

Designed for professionals who value both aesthetics and ergonomic support, this chair adapts seamlessly to your lifestyle – whether you’re working from home, gaming for hours or designing in a studio. Crafted from high-performance, premium materials, The Gene Chair features a breathable mesh back for optimal airflow, a contoured foam seat that relieves pressure points, and adjustable lumbar support to promote healthy posture and spinal alignment. At its core, the chair is all about customisable comfort; it allows you to easily adjust the seat height, armrests and tilt to suit your ideal sitting position, while smooth-rolling casters and a swivel base allow for fluid movement throughout your workspace.With its sleek silhouette, clean lines and modern finish, The Gene Chair makes the perfect addition to any contemporary or modern environment.

4. Swirl Autumn rug by Uchronia

Designed for cc-tapis, Autumn is a rug from Uchronia studio’s Swirl collection, which features rugs made of wool using the crochet technique. The rug is a unique interpretation of the nuances and feelings of each season, creating an immersive sensory experience.

5. TR7 floor light by Tom Rossau

One of the first lamps to be developed by Rossau, the TR7 lamp is scuptural and striking. Ideal for corner placements, its closed shade encapsulates the light sources and provides an indirect light independent from the choice of the material. The TR7 lamps have a sculptural and organic expression, as much when unlit as when radiating light.

6. Voiles by Roche Bobois

Designer-sculptor Maurice Barilone dedicated three months of intensive workshop research to perfect the airy silhouette of the curved metal sheets that form the base of this piece. Each sheet is meticulously cut, shaped under 1,500 kilograms of pressure, welded and re-polished before the final finish is applied. Despite the substantial weight of the material, the design of Voiles achieves an elegant sense of lightness. The surface comes to life through a play of reflections, enhanced by sophisticated galvanic finishes that range from gold, copper, chrome and black nickel to vibrant chromes, each adding a refined, luminous quality.
