Civilization and furniture design are highly interlinked. Historians believe that about 30,000 years ago, people started constructing their own furniture from the materials available in their surroundings. From that moment on, furniture has been a statement piece. Yes, the Bauhaus movement made furniture and functionality the core of design, but the quality of your furniture remained an elemental part of depicting our social status. Fast forward to the modern era where cheap, mass-produced furniture is available in the plenty, Yanko Design showcases some beautiful furniture designs with hidden details that will make you fall in love with furniture designs all over again!
Distinguished by its elegant formal shape and enhanced by its large rounded leather-wrapped arms, the Ryokō Armchair by David Girelli gives an instant feeling of calmness. Inspired by a Japanese folding chair from the 1960s, its features, materials, and joinery details elevate the lines and design elements of the chair. The loose back cushion adjusts around the ash frame when seated and offers an innovative sense of comfort.
We have seen a lot of designs that incorporate resin – it’s a trending art that is here to stay. While most designers use resin to rework their design, designer Meubles Thouret decided to take an innovative approach that helps you appreciate the wood in its natural form even better – using resin to mold or join different pieces of wood. Each individual wooden piece retains that cut pattern, which is now encased in resin, and the added use of resin means the tricky joinery is now in the hands of this flexible material. Smart and aesthetic, isn’t it?!

We love it when designers mix up materials – the result is usually a fascinating take on an everyday design.

Patchwork is Giulia and Ruggero’s proposed creative design solution for depersonalized home spaces such as reception centers for unhoused individuals. Patchwork is comprised of different, interchangeable panels that fold and expand like a traditional room divider.

Patchwork incorporates a built-in closet space where users can hang their clothes and, thanks to a concealed padlock accessory, can also stow away personal possessions for secure storage. Patchwork also comes with supplemental shelving units, individual mirrors, and handy hooks so that the additional panels can be outfitted according to each user’s unique needs
