Name: EVO-C Chair
Designer/Brand: Jasper Morrison for Vitra, available from Wallpaper*STORE
Price: From £285
‘Not just any plastic chair’: Jasper Morrison and Vitra have collaborated on a new design that takes the classic two-leg cantilevered tubular metal chair to new frontiers with the first all-plastic version of the model. Dutch architect Mart Stam created the first two-legged chair in 1926; nearly a century later (after iconic designers such as Alvar Aalto, Verner Panton and Marcel Breuer took a spin at the design too), Morrison and Vitra have taken the concept a step further, creating a plastic chair that is resistant and durable thanks to gas injection moulding technology.

Name: ‘Penelope’ pastry stand, aquamarine
Designer: Sambonet, available from WallpaperSTORE*
Price: £100
Inspired by the design philosophies and spirit found amongst Italian objects and architecture created in the 1950s, Sambonet’s ’Penelope’ collection is a reinterpretation of a bygone era. Not for the first time, the historic Italian brand has manifested these qualities as the character and personality of an imaginary female figure — Penelope — a spirit that is at once modern and emancipated, sophisticated in beauty and decisive yet gentle. The collection, which comprises a series of bowls, centrepieces, and a macaron dish, combines the brand’s signature quality craftsmanship with resin detailing and polished stainless steel. Entirely made in Italy, this sleek pastry stand offers a mirrored base atop a series of aquamarine resin feet, and is crowned by an additional sphere at the top of the stand. Presented in gift packaging.
