VEGETAL CHAIR

—Designed by Ronan & Rrwan Bouroullec for Vitra

There's a trend on getting back to nature. Shapes from the world of vegetation serve as inspiration for brothers Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec’s new vegetal chair. Its plant like structure, like crissing and crossing vegetation, is modeled after trees in 19th-century gardens that were pruned into functional furniture. It's available in six delicious, veggie inspired colors (such as eggplant), and the Vegetal stacks away neatly.

CACTUS CHAIR

—Designed by Valentina Glez Wohlers

Love pink and green...so Lily Pulitzer. This whimsical cactus chair is appropriately named the prickly pair chair, and the button tufts on the seat actually have fabric hairs that mimic the prickly bits of the cactus. Valentina Glez Wohlers is a Mexican born and London based designer. Her cactus chairs made their grand entrance to the world during Milan Design Week, '09.
