But how does OGO furniture float?!
Spanish brand OGO Furniture was one of the exhibitors at IMM Cologne last January. The company brings forth a unique design inspired by family time and relaxation. Below is an exchange of views with the minds behind the brand. OGO Furniture stands out for its unique design when it comes to outdoor furniture. Where does your inspiration come from? We are inspired by life, by "chilling" and enjoying free time with family and friends. Our design team loves these moments of joy and knows how important it is to create the right atmosphere in both private and common spaces to create unforgettable moments." OGO Furniture emphasizes the versatility of its pool accessories, which can be customized for different environments. Can you explain the principles of modularity and adaptability that your team refers to? Our team works hard to find the right fabrics that deliver the highest quality and durability we want for our items, and within these, we aim to create the widest possible range of colours and textures. The versatility of most of our items - which, in addition to general outdoor use, can also be used by the pool - will make any creative interior designer think of using them in their projects. For example, they can use the loungers from the new Duna collection next to the pool and surround the area with our 'Donut Sofas', our 'Flowers' or our iconic 'Starfish' to add colour and fun to the environment.' The floating feature of OGO furniture is a unique and intriguing aspect. Can you explain what materials and design elements allow the furniture to float and how this innovation contributes to the overall outdoor and poolside experience? The reason why our items float is no secret: their filling is made of expanded polystyrene, the famous cork beads, although from now on they will be produced with biomass, as our commitment to the environment is deeply rooted in our hearts. The quality of our products is that they are made with a unique, breathable and draining fabric. Water enters the product but comes out when it is removed from the water, allowing it to be stored during the winter months and, despite this, UV rays do not damage the fabric. We guarantee 5 years of impeccable color". Looking to the future, what are OGO Furniture 's plans? Our goals are focused, on the one hand, on expanding the brand to other countries, which is why we will be attending the next Hability fair in Las Vegas, from April 30 to May 2. Bringing the product closer to the end customer to avoid unnecessary CO2 waste is one of our goals. On the other hand, the OGO team is enthusiastic about new ideas and projects, which is what sets us apart. We have recently launched the DUNA loungers and we already have new ideas that will be presented in Valencia at the Feria Hábitat 2024".

Design icon: chairs and armchairs inspired by the drawings of Pierre Jeanneret
When can an armchair be considered iconic? The timeless design, which combines elegance and simplicity with an idea of immediate comfort, ensures this nomination for the PJ armchair , inspired by the designs of the visionary Pierre Jeanneret. Project by Restylit.com A classic , an icon with a timeless design Designed in the middle of the last century for the Capitol Complex in Chandigarh, India , it represents one of Le Corbusier's most significant projects. Furthermore, the inclusion of this complex of buildings in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2016 has shifted the spotlight towards this project. Its rooms featured these comfortable armchairs with thick padding, with a V-shaped compositional scheme of the supports. Pierre Jeanneret and Le Corbusier seated in one of the Chandigarh chair The chair’s V-shaped legs, made from moisture- and insect-resistant Burmese wood, were sturdy. And their durability would be tested decades later in Chandigarh, when, as people gravitated toward more contemporary designs, scores of Jeanneret chairs were discarded and piled up all over the city, from the roof of the Supreme Court to the balconies of administrative buildings. Many were even sold at local auctions for a couple of rupees. Original furniture piled in storage at the High Court, Sector 1, Chandigarh But in the early 2000s, furniture dealers began to surround Chandigarh, notably Eric Touchaleaume, Francois Laffanour, Phillipe Jousse and Patrick Seguin, who saw the value in Jeanneret's discarded chairs before anyone else, purchasing a number of the original pieces. Inevitably, Jeanneret’s chair has made a comeback and found global recognition as an iconic piece of design. Beloved among design professionals around the world, including the likes of Belgian interior designer Axel Vervoordt and French architect Joseph Dirand, the chair has attracted such widespread demand that since 2011, a rule has been in place stating that none of the original pieces still in Chandigarh can leave India without the approval of the country’s Ministry of Culture. Chandigarh's Capitol Complex is now a UNESCO heritage site The V Chairs designed by Pierre Jeanneret are the design icons most loved by Stars and Celebrities Since its rediscovery, the chair has become a design staple. Jeanneret chairs, both original and restored, still command record prices at auction and grace the homes of famous designers and celebrities such as the Kardashian sisters, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, and Lenny Kravitz. And as demand on the market increases, a once common chair is now making a comeback. Kourtney Kardashian's Home Office Inside Kim Kardashian & Kanye West's 60 Million Dollars' Home Inside Kim Kardashian & Kanye West's 60 Million Dollars' Home Kourtney Kardashian's dining room also features Pierre Jeanneret Chairs Inside Rosie Huntington-Whiteley's chic Malibu Mansion Instagram @rosiehw The modern re-edition of Design Details The contemporary and 100% made in Italy reworking of the Capitol Complex upholstered armchair features an oak wood structure with Wenge or Mahogany finish, padded backrest, seat and armrests covered in velvet or leather. The PJ armchair is available with or without armrests and is available in both indoor and outdoor fabric versions. PJ_01 with armrests PJ_02 without armrests Its simple and minimalist lines have made it an internationally renowned flagship product based on the values of craftsmanship and high quality. Discover the collection of rattan chairs inspired by the designs of Pierre Jeanneret: More recently, Dutch brand Eichholtz has created a series of chairs that they have dubbed the “Tribute Collection,” paying aesthetic homage to the original designs through simple modernist forms, distinct V-shaped constructions, and woven rattan details. The collection capitalizes on the demand for Jeanneret’s pieces and brings those infamous designs into a contemporary context. Today, Chandigarh is considered one of the few successful planned cities in the world, and still has around a million residents living within its stoically curved concrete walls. And although it has been more than 50 years since the city was conceived, the iconic legacy of Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret lives on in these chairs, reminding us of one of the most significant architectural feats the world has ever seen.

Furnishing a small house
Decorating a small home is a challenge, but with our six tips, but starting now it will be easier with these simple tips. The proportion of the furniture Instead of downsizing your furniture, downsize it. It’s better to have fewer, full-sized pieces of furniture than to go for miniature furniture. The size of your furniture is crucial to your home. Although furnishing a small home can be a challenge, making a list of priorities and buying only the essentials can be a great help. Mirrors in strategic points to expand the space Mirrors have the power to reflect light and make spaces seem larger. To take advantage of this feature, place them in strategic places: in front of open windows or doors so that they reflect the outside space. The position is as important as what it reflects. Remember: one large mirror is better than several small ones. Light and neutral colors Light colors help make rooms appear larger and brighter. Classic neutrals, on the other hand, are the easiest to combine and rarely go out of style. Create a blank canvas to have fun with and highlight colorful and bright elements against a neutral background, so you can make the most of your small home. Light furniture A simple trick to avoid making a small house seem too loaded and full of furniture, is to use light ones that do not touch the floor, but that have thin legs. In this way the spaces will expand to the sight and the small size of your house will no longer be perceptible. Paintings: few but great Using a few large paintings leaves the walls free and gives a sense of spaciousness to the house. On the contrary, a wall full of many small paintings can seem suffocating and make the room smaller. This trick makes the room spacious and bright, without overloading the spaces. Additionally, a useful optical illusion to make the walls appear higher is to place paintings near the furniture rather than the ceiling.

5 tips for a welcoming home
One of the most rewarding elements of designing a home is wanting to share it with others. Good design invites and welcomes you like a hug in a comfortable space perfect for sharing experiences and memories with your guests. Here are 5 helpful tips to make your home welcoming and wishlist-worthy: Few but good Everyone appreciates simplicity. It’s easy to get caught up in the rush of wanting to take care of every single detail of the house by overloading it with elements, but to a guest this can feel like an eyesore. We recommend focusing on a single element of the room to prevent it from losing its freshness and simplicity. Whether it’s a vintage fireplace in the living room or a marble countertop in the kitchen, it’s helpful to surround the protagonist of the room with small, discreet details that emphasize it. Comfortable and spacious seats A welcoming home cannot be without comfortable and spacious seats, where you can gather and converse, or simply relax together. Adding a velvet pouf near the sofa or a vintage armchair near the bookcase will give a touch of style to your home without compromising its comfort. Soft accessories for a cozy atmosphere To welcome guests to your home you can count on an unbeatable ally: soft fabrics. Soft cotton cushions, wool blankets and baskets decorated with cozy blankets near the sofa will immediately make your home welcoming and irresistible. Credit Love Rooms A welcome console A console in the entrance, hallway or bedroom is not only useful as a space-saving object to collect keys and objects, but can also represent a welcome note with a scented candle, a vase or flowers. It's a simple and effective way to let your guests know that you've thought of everything! Decorate an unforgettable bedroom Creating a dream bedroom that your guests will envy is simple: choose a bed with a dramatic headboard and play with the textures of the blankets, pillows and throws; add a few final decorative touches such as vases, jewelry boxes, candles and other personalized objects that give your room an intimate and comfortable air. There is no welcoming home without a bedroom with all the trimmings! Photo credit and Project by Nordic Standard In this picture: STILLA pouf amber and bedside table SPECULUM

Your modern terrace in just a few steps
As soon as summer approaches, we suddenly feel the need to renovate the balcony to enjoy it as much as possible while the season allows it. Here's how to get a modern terrace in a few steps: A modern terrace is based on three principles: design, light and greenery. Reliable design - a matter of quality Good design will protect your furniture from constant exposure to sunlight, humidity and wind, which can cause it to deteriorate over time. For this reason, we suggest opting for resistant, long-lasting and high-quality materials that can withstand all weather conditions. In addition, you must take into account the maintenance of the materials: good design must not only be durable, but also easy to maintain. CC PIPER SAND Sofas The best materials to renovate your terrace are steel, wrought or galvanized iron, acacia or teak wood and synthetic fibers such as Olefin fabric or Sunbrella fabric: all durable options that will never go out of style. Another super resistant material is Technopolymer or Polyethylene. Once you check these two boxes off your list, your deck will be a success! RAMSEY table and CB-R chairs White Outdoor lighting Outdoor lighting can make a big difference in the decor of your terrace. It is important to consider not only direct light, but also the one that gives the environment that comfortable and easy-going atmosphere we aspire to. Soft and suffused light transforms your living space into a dreamy and romantic environment. This veiled effect can be achieved by placing moderate light sources near plants, corners and on the floor. Remember: the light must never be blinding! https://pin.it/4640C57 Aqua Globe by Slide Design Green – the undisputed protagonist The deck is the place in your home where nature can thrive and take over the space in all its glory. A deck without plants or flowers looks unfinished, devoid of life. It is important to place plants strategically here and there on the deck to make it look inviting, rather than bare. Additionally, a space that is close to nature is inherently more relaxing for the mind and helps you unplug during a summer evening or after a long day at work. When it comes to choosing which plants to buy, we recommend playing with colors, textures, and sizes that can withstand both the summer heat and the blowing wind. Renovate or cover old flooring When furnishing your terrace or garden, keep the flooring in mind. If it doesn’t match your furniture or the style you want to recreate, consider covering it with a new floor or with wooden planks or floating floors. As a valid (and cheaper) alternative, you can also use a nice outdoor rug, beautiful for recreating welcoming atmospheres and boho chic styles. Horizon to share A key factor in making your terrace modern is to lighten it of any superfluous element that could deprive it of its intrinsic nature of an open and welcoming environment. Going up to the terrace should be like a breath of fresh air that opens up towards the horizon. For this reason, we recommend positioning the outdoor seating towards the most pleasant view, so that you can share the horizon with friends and family. Positioning all the furniture towards the center with your back to the view is counterproductive, especially in an area full of greenery or from which you can enjoy the sunset.

In this way, your summer house will be the perfect place to invite friends and relatives during the summer and spend time together. Monsieur F. Sofa Light Blue Velvet Layer vibrant decorations Your favorite decorations can be the final creative touch to spruce up and refresh your home for the summer. Wall art, bouquets, ornaments… the choice is yours! By layering bright decorations, your summer home will be full of personality and vibrancy.
