British brand Modus is set to launch 13 new products at this year’s Milan Furniture Fair. Of note, Monica Forster’s FOREST, a room divider that creates "the illusion of colored leaves", Simon Pengelly’s SLIDE shelving system, where each row of boxes slide horizontally creating larger open areas, Claesson Koivisto Rune’s COCOON, a family of sofas and chairs with sides and backs that "rise to form a private cocoon", and Jessica Albarn’s SPIDER rug with a "single, delicate oversized spider emblem".

Great idea, especially having in mind that a lot of the designs that are most unusual and gain most attention need explanation :)
i like the forest room divider, but when i see it i think of sea water bubbles more than leaves...
i think its a brilliant design and it seperates itself from all the other normal designs, but it still makes anyone smile
