At a trade show like ICFF "new" often means new colorways or fabrics, as was the case with a lot of the furniture on display in this edition. New ideas for seating were harder to find this year but could be found in the Wilsonart-SCAD booth, at council design, Mike & Maaike, BluDot, Laurie Beckerman, Stew, RISD, Thout and Kenneth Cobonpue.

Brendan Lominack's Discarded Chip chair, one of four presented in the Wilsonart Challenge exhibit. All of the chairs were designed by students from the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD).



Khodi Feiz's Peel seating for council design, above and below.






mike and maaike windowseat lounge chair, not so new, but no longer just a render. That's Mike in the chair.



Bludot's Knicker chair has upholstery that goes down the chair leg. The chair was made to go with the Nick table.



Laurie Beckerman's Tete-a-Tete Rocker two-seater outdoor/indoor rocking chair.



Stew Design Workshop's plywood Mango Chair, inspired by the act of cutting a mango.



RISD student Maria Gmuca's Extruded Swarovski chair (the crystals are on the other side).



Thout's HoleySTUMP "Cedar stumps are made lighter when pierced with holes that look as though they could have been made by a giant worm.". Holds beers nicely.



Kenneth Cobonpue's Yoda outdoor seating collection made of woven rattan.



Anti-Quaint Vortex chair. The stretch fabric stretches just enough to hold you comfortably.
