Cube Orange




Simply spectacular. Visually arresting. Happiness for the eyes. Another reason to go to France. Le Cube Orange by Paris-based Jacob & MacFarlane architects, a soon to be completed commercial and cultural complex in Lyon.

Modern Furniture In The Rainbow Colors





Modern life demands multifunctional furniture. The Hybrid designed by Marton and produced by AllĂȘ is a nice example of such things. The name says for itself: a side table with a light, coffe table with a vase and a mirror. Modern furniture also should be flexible and simple to clean. Voila, this collection is made of methacrylate that is hard to break and simple to wash. And what about the color? Rainbow is coming! The Hybrid is painted in all possible colors, looks bright and raises your spirits. Such furniture will be very useful for small living spaces and those people who want all in one. But hurry up, it’s a limited edition!
