For us Designers' Open 2010 was a wonderful mixture of new discoveries and renewed meetings with old favourites.
Such as Collecteur by Christian Lessing.
We first saw back Collecteur in January at Designers Fair in Cologne - and are still impressed by the simple genius of the design.
In essence Collecteur is a stool/side table that receives its stability from magazines.
Perfect for all those of us with large magazine collection we can't bear to part with but which we can't find appropriate storage space for.
Or better put for which our partner considers the current storage space to be inadequate.
The "technology" behind Collecteur is little more then a fold in the steel sheet - the idea is much more involved.
And as we say, just delicious.
It was lovely to see Collecteur in Leipzig at Designers' Open.
And now we're really looking forward to Cologne in January!
