Lex Pott x Forbo
For the floor called Weave, color was the point of departure. The marmoleum modular floor consist of a combination of colors which together make a new color. This principle inspired Lex to think of weaving colors with different layers to make a new pattern.The floor is designed in five different color variations to emphasise the diversity of the concept.

Clogs for Studio Thomas Vailly
"Reconfiguration of a tree" is a research project focused on Pinus Pinaster, a resinous tree harvested for its pitch. Studio Thomas Vailly took a natural element, the Pinus Pinaster tree, ripped it apart - rearranging its elements into man made materials. To reveal the full potential of the material, black resin and pine wood has been delivered to David Derksen, Gardar Eyjolfsson and Lex Pott each reconfigured a part of the tree into products. Exhibition Dutch Design Week Eindhoven, Veemgebouw, Torenallee 80, Strijp-S, 17 until 25 October

Pillow for Gelderland
The first sofa collection designed by Lex Pott for Dutch furniture brand GELDERLAND. Based on urban environments where living spaces are getting smaller. The compact size of the sofas and armchairs have a minimal cubical designed outside and a very comfortable cosy pillow soft inside, making the pillow collection a typical Gelderland piece. Lex based the serie on one base module: the seat. By combining this with backrests and sides the possibilities are endless. These combinations provide corner, daybed and ottoman solutions.

True Colours Vases accessory of the year
We are very proud to announce that the True Colours vases for &Tradition have been chosen as 'Accessory of The Year' by Swedish interior magazine Plaza Interiör.
This is what the judges said:
'You can never have too many vases. And the best thing is that vases are just as beautiful with and without flowers. True Colours are like little works of art on the window. Their fine materials and color combinations make it to this year's accessory!'

Pivot now available at HAY
Pivot is the name for the center point of a rotational system. In this case all the cirkels are folded in different ways from the center point to create geometric compositions. The pivot generates the freedom to hang several models in different ways such as horizontal and vertical. The stainless steel mirror finished Pivot create depth due to the reflections of the circles. For every situation there is a pivot model: in a corner, over a corner or on a straight wall. Buy online at hayshop.dk
Earth Matters, when natural & creative forces meet
Exhibiting contemporary design and its processes for the first time, Artipelag has invited curators Lidewij Edelkoort and Philip Fimmano to create a thought-provoking show that directly connects with this subject matter and museum's meteorological site in Stockholm's idyllic archipelago. As Edelkoort explains, "This young century has brought about a moment of reflection and radical change, making up for a century of ecological abuse, consumption, greed and violence. For the first time, a post-fossil society is emerging, using natural ingredients, offering alternatives and giving us hope for the future."
Earth Matters, from February 6 until May 3 2015
