Barcelona designers Mediodesign have created a birch plywood chair in homage to the Eames elephant. Named the Elephant Lounge Chair, this birch plywood chair was inspired by both the LCW Molded Plywood Chair and the Elephant Stool designed by Eameses in 1945.
The chair cleverly slots together like a puzzle which in turn means that there is very little waste during production, something which is very important in this environmentally conscious society that we live in today.

In terms of design philosophy, Kursi does not confine itself to one particular aesthetic; nor does it intend to adopt a particular house style. Having said that, they confess to having a penchant for all things mid 20th Century - which can be seen in the lovely sideboard which is kind of retro-futuristic!
Designed by Abdul Ghafoor, this unique sideboard takes into account a variety of storage needs. The case is built of plywood, while the base is constructed from sapele (a hard wood with similar properties to mahogany). The lead time on an order is roughly 12 weeks.
