Daishi Luo and Zhipeng Tan are the members of a creative design duo which creates furniture inspired by the human body, including tall spinal chairs with pelvis seats and other stuff you might find odd.

The creators of Mán-Mán Studio explain that their art pieces are made of copper, “because of the charm of the material. Copper is alive, its plasticity is very high, and it is not what we always see.”

“This is an introspection behavior in the process of industry. After industrial mass production meets most of the needs of life, handicraft often represents the products of nature and culture. People begin to pursue the appeal of inner spirit instead of fast consumption,” they said in an interview for China Design Centre.

They exhibited their work in galleries both locally and internationally, in cities like Milano, Shanghai, Miami, etc.

Eny Lee Parker describes herself as a designer of objects and spaces. Born in Brzail and currently based in Savannah, Georgia, her furniture design is artsy while still being approachable, and more importantly, practical. Through her designs, she aims to explore human needs and wants.

“I started with interior design and was working in that field for some time,” she described her creative journey in an interview with Matter of Hand. “Interior designers love and appreciate furniture, so the appreciation was always there,” she notes. “But when I was working in residential interior design, we used to have to pick out furniture a lot and I always wished that aspects of the pieces were different in this or that way. I never had confidence that I could actually design things until I came back to Savannah and enrolled in a master’s program for furniture.”

Her practice included exploring a lot of different materials, starting with wood and metals, and moving onto ceramics, which is another passion of hers. “I always start with a topic that I am really interested in whether it is feminism or an art movement,” she describes her process. “Then I sketch a bunch, make a lot of mood boards, start some model making or prototypes, and after that I make it.”

Lee Parker’s fascination with the mind and behavior of people leads to objects that echo human emotions. “I do a lot of work on the computer so everything is always done digitally first – I set dimensions for everything,” she notes. “That’s especially important with furniture. The ceramics don’t always stay accurate, but I have to know generally what height or width I need. It’s so much easier for me to have everything drawn; it’s kind of like having blueprints. You kind of have to. It’s a little different than being in sculpture.”

Take a look at some of her unique designs in the gallery below:

Artist Gil Bruvel began experimenting with art at a young age. His father, a cabinet maker, introduced him to the world of wood sculpting and furniture design which he applied years later.

For his unique figurative sculptures, Bruvel arranges the pile of sticks and paints them in vibrant colors. On one side, the colored wooden pieces form into faces with tranquil expressions, while on the other side, they remain abstract and cluttered. The pixelated sculptures are like stylish 3D pin art that show images of beautiful faces.

The art pieces, which are part of the series called, Bending The Lines, are currently on display in Federic Got Gallery’s booth as a part of the LA Art Show from January 23 – 27, 2019.
