Hasta La Ideas

It’s common knowledge that moving is one of life’s biggest stresses. So to think about packing all my furniture into a truck for a combined total weight of 7.5kg/16.5 pounds—the weight of a nice, single chair—is pretty exhilarating.

Amsterdam-based Studio Geneen has created a conceptual collection of airy furniture. The lightweight furniture construction “reduc[es] energy consumption during production and transport and of course, minimizes the amount of materials used in these products.” Using high-tech textiles like Dyneema (gel-spun fiber), 3D printing and innovative construction techniques, the Light Room collection includes 2 chairs, a coffee table, stool and shelving unit. Read more about the specs for the Light Room collection after the jump and watch the video for inspiration for the “Gaudi Stool” below.
