JOHNHOUSHMAND is very pleased to have been recently featured on That Vegan Blog for our winning combination of sleek sustainability and attention-grabbing design as well as DesignSpotter with our new take on a modern classic: the brand new No. 0222 Cast Aluminum Director’s Chair.
Check out both blogs for your daily dose of design inspiration be it for products, books, events, sustainable furniture or interior design.
WOOD Design is a blog highlighting designers from 5 continents making tables, seating, storage, and objects from natural wood.
“At WOOD we aim to define & inform upon a new marketplace in which we bring together wood artists who demonstrate core values in design, sourcing of material, quality & diversity in the objects they produce and people looking to explore beautiful, contemporary, made to last furnishings.”
We are pleased to say that JOHNHOUSHMAND‘s No. 0015.4 Black Walnut Low Table/Bench with 3/4″ Bronze Legs was featured on their blog which is filled with fellow designers who embody a conscientious philosophy and an attentive use of wood. No. 0015.4 promotes the inherent beauty of wood in its natural state, lending a bold statement to any interior space.
“I have spent my entire life making things. When I was a kid growing up in the Philippines, toys from the US were scarce. If you wanted a boat or a toy gun, you made it. And although we westerners are additive in our assemblies, indigenous peoples are subtractive. A machete and a chunk of wood became that boat. Elemental and sincere … Now we make furniture. sculpture. architectural work…we design environments, installations, residential, spa, and even retail spaces. At one end of the spectrum it is functional, at the other end it is dreaming. Bringing the future into the present and insisting that it be beautiful, inspiring, and elemental.” Read more here.
The Robb Report magazine and website covers all manner of luxury lifestyle such as sneak peeks into the top hotels in Las Vegas, Dubai and Paris, review of British shoemaker Barker Black, musings on “Car of the Year 2011” winner Ferrari 458 Italia, news from the 2011 Yacht & Brokerage Show in Miami, as well as a curation of interior and home design for the most discerning tastes.
We’re pleased as punch to be included in their “New & Noteworthy” segment, featuring our sleek and sustainable furnishings. SHAZAM, JOHNHOUSHMAND’s latest collection which blends together sophisticated style and extreme feats of micro-engineering, is highlighted, as well as one of our “must-have” pieces, No. 0028 Beaver Table. This piece is both functional and visually stimulating, constructed from gnawed branches and a ¾” piece of blue Starfire glass. As the snows melt and nature readies itself for spring, this piece brings to mind renewal and rebuilding.
