The drawers run on soft close, full extension runners, and traditional butt hinges allow the doors to open 160 degrees. A clear polyurethane finish protects both materials.

The Once Collection Seating

The Once Collection

The Once Collection is a seating range that includes a chair and a barstool. Each seat is built from two forms of laser-cut metal that are welded together.

The cushions are made of foam on a wooden base and are covered with cowhide that is sewn to size. The backrests are connected by a hinge, so the backrests adapt to the seated person. Two versions are offered, one in Corten steel and one painted black.

Inspiring Interactive Candlestick

Inspiring

Inspiring is an interactive candlestick designed for indoor and outdoor use. Two single candle holders are held on a U-shaped iron frame by small magnets, so each holder can be placed at any position along the frame. Users arrange the composition freely and change it at will. When the candles are not in use, the holders are stored inside the base, which protects the candles from evaporation and staining. The frame and the base are joined by friction and can be separated, so the candlestick packs into two compact pieces for camping. The base can also serve alone as a candle platform.

Lazygoose’s Kickproof Quilt

Lazygoose’s Kickproof

Kickproof is a quilt designed for school-age children between three and twelve years of age. The quilting follows the curves of a child's body, and the shoulder area is filled more thickly to stop warm air from escaping. A type-X inner structure adds gentle downward resistance, which reduces the tendency to kick the quilt aside during sleep. A widened fishtail opening leaves room for free leg movement. The filling is a soft fiber similar to down, and the fabric is treated against bacteria and can be machine washed.
