Industrial Design
Industrial designer Yaron Elyasi makes some really interesting items out of string and partially recycled plastic. The colorful chairs and open vessel above are some of the pieces that he is best known for. Nature and organic form are a definate influence in his work.
The same chair as shown above but in black partially recycled plastic takes on a totally different feel. I like the colored pieces better. The black is kind of creepy…
This nest- like dipped string vessel is something of a conversation piece and then there is the string bowl below… I actually like these last two items and think they make good accents for shelves or coffee tables. Sometimes an accent is just what a room needs to polish it off.
I think the black chair is quite nice actually – it looks like a big furball to me (of course we were just adopted by a dark gray kitten…)
