Working along side the Italian furniture company B LINE, Karim Rashid a Canadian interior Architect came up with two designs named Gemma and Oskar. The two are a series of Polyethylene furniture created through the process of rotomoulding.

Beginning with Gemma. Gemma is a small armchair, created in such a way that it portrays a rigid exterior upon first inspection, giving the impression of something quite uncomfortable. Due to the material and the way in which the seat is inclined, these add comfort and softness to the users experience. The chair is also usable both indoors and out due to this material.

Oskar, the other of the two designs, is a wall mirror. The design also includes two additional features than just the standard mirror. It’s built with two hooks usable for hanging, and a front compartment for storing various trinkets.

The ability to match the furniture with any interior décor is a possibility, as both designs are available in a variety of colors. The range includes Hollywood fuchsia, coral red and topaz blue.
