Junior Design Addicts

At Inform we believe that design appreciation can start at any age. Many of our clients have been coming to our store for years and years, with this we’ve experienced their changes in style and taste as well as the changes in their family structure with the addition of some amazing children!

Above Verner Panton’s classic chair has be introduced in a children’s size. Durable, stackable, and colourful.

Not all products suitable for children are designed for their use. The CORK stools by Jasper Morrison and VITRA are a great small table for kids and with no hard sharp corners it’s safe too.

Collectors of Alexander Girards dolls can start their kids off with a single piece of their choice.
View and order each family member.

Knoll has started producing their iconic mid-century pieces in scaled down forms. Now people of all ages can enjoy the comfort of Eero Saarinen’s Womb Chair (suggested use shown above).

zanottaem1

New to the store are products by Zanotta for the 2009 Milan Salone.

Above we have the elegant DERBY chair by Noé Duchaufour Lawrance. The exterior shell of the chair is done in a cowhide with the internal body in leathers and fabrics. Available as a swivel or fixed base. Quite comfortable and has a nice generous seat.

Below we have images of the EVA chair by Ora-Ïto. This chair is available in Polyurethane (white, balck, or sand) or leather style products with either a sled style, pedestal, or 5-star castor base. In the store we brought in the polyurethane version with a castor base and it really makes a nice task chair. The polyurethane is formed so that the inner edge is smooth and the outer edge is sharp making a striking but usable chair.
