The Beauty Of Modern Furniture

Possibly the best thing about the modern furniture design of today is its beauty and grace. A combination of spare lines and understated elegance makes modern furniture a pleasure to buy and own, for the homeowner and the commercial space alike. For example, take the Aarnio Ball Chair (Eero Aarnio in 1966), an acknowledged modern classic of furniture design. A sliced off globe, hollowed out to give the user a private, almost soundproof space, this chair is a nice way to find an island of peace even in the noisiest of rooms. Other modern classics include such innovations as the Arne Jacobsen Egg Chair (Jacobsen, 1958), and the Aarnio Hanging Bubble Chair (Eero Aarnio, 1968). Stylish and spare, these designs enhance the “look” while not detracting from the “feel”. They add comfort and even privacy, to the middle of a hustle-bustle modern life, increasing the style quotient of the space many times over. One look at any of these amazing designs, by the masters of the field, is enough to bring home the point. Modern furniture design has truly managed to combine the functional with the visually pleasing; the grace with the usefulness; to come up with what can only be called pieces of usable art.
