Five furry, fuzzy furniture pieces at Design Miami 2018
After another turbulent year for the world, comforting cuddly furniture was a standout trend at last week's Design Miami fair, where several galleries showed snug sheepskin seats and cozy cocoons.
Sofa Pelo by Guillermo Santomá
Side Gallery, Barcelona
A giant furry rug is draped over an iron frame supporting cushioned volumes, and accompanied with sheets of glass to produce this combined day bed and coffee table. Designed by Barcelona-based Guillermo Santomá, the white sheepskin carpet reaches over 3.5 metres in length, and would be an ideal centrepiece for a wintery retreat or ski chalet.
Kaws x Campanas
Friedman Benda, New York City
Brazilian designers Humberto and Fernando Campana teamed up with American artist Kaws to create limited-edition versions of the brothers' soft-toy chairs. Pink and black cartoon-like plush figurines, typical of Kaws' work, are clustered together to create bowl-like seats for users to nestle into.
Railings by ArandaLasch
Gallery All, Beijing and Beverly Hills
Part of a wider series of furniture formed from twisted metal tubes, these chairs by ArandaLasch are softened by faux fur that wraps around their seats and backs. The versions shown by Gallery All feature two-tone grey fibres paired with golden-coloured supports, but designers hinted that they are also working on an entirely fur-covered edition.
James Brown by Porky Hefer
Southern Guild, Cape Town
