Beam by Nienkämper

Channelling the 1970s in a way that’s less “mom’s basement” and more late-era Mad Men, Nienkämper’s colourful Beam lounge collection launched at NeoCon 2023 allows for mix-and-match configurations of burnt sienna and mustard yellow upholstery. When creating arrangements of several chair and table modules, the design’s exposed wood base becomes a central track linking everything together.

This vivid collection by Ichiro Iwasaki for Arper features seating and workstation modules that lend themselves just as well to colour coordination as to power-clashing. Alongside plenty of convenient details — removable backrests, attachable side tables, and parts that can be easily disassembled and recycled — the range boasts upholstery options from Spradling, Kvadrat and Maharam.

While the flexible foam used to make this accordion-like bench is firm enough that its undulations can serve as a functional work surface, the material squishes as you sit down to deliver a fantastic sinking-in sensation. Presented in Australian brand Schiavello’s first permanent North American showroom, the classic design gained a whole new following.

The beloved rainy-day game of tangrams inspired this checkerboard pattern from Designtex. One twist: The vinyl upholstery features triangles in both solid and striped patterns. Its six colourways include Colorwheel (shown), which draws on the full rainbow spectrum to create a super-saturated focal point.
