con.temporary furniture


frustrated with the lack of affordable, contemporary furniture 
on the market, colin schaelli of zurich-based studio, 
design bureau colin schaelli, set out to create own his collection 
entitled 'con.temporary furniture'.

the easy to move, easy to assemble objects are made entirely 
from wood and do not require nails, screws or tools to assemble. 
the clear cut panels of plywood use measurements 
based on the tatami grid system, allowing the furniture to be packed 
and easily transported by car. 

three different finish options - raw, planed and grinded plywood, 
lino veneer or local wood veneer - allow the line to be accessible 
to many different price points. 

the collection, which is currently being sold in switzerland and japan
is manufactured by selected craftsmen, responsible for 
locally producing the products, thus keeping the shipping costs low.
