Although it is difficult to distinguish the individual contributions of a creative duo such as Charles and Ray Eames, Ray clearly brought a gift for color. Herman Miller has chosen three bold colors for this years Select Edition program that were Ray's favorites and used on the exterior panels of Case Study House #8, which she and Charles designed. The tables will be sold through the Spring of 2013, and then cease to be produced, giving these tables added appeal to collectors.

This means designs already out of copyright for 30 years will be given back protection. The largest sector affected with be the Furniture industry where iconic pieces of furniture now affordable through reproductions will no longer be available. we believe the law perhaps should be changed from the day it is passed to all designs going forwards or from 1988 (covering items just reaching 25 years). However, it should NOT be applied to anything that precedes this date as the protection has already long run out. Giving back this protection will damage legitimate business leaving thousands out of work in the UK and gives a monopoly to the handful of companies who are allowed to buy licenses to sell these designs at inflated prices.

Flakes Designers Chairs MYchair, Walter Knoll Design : Ben van Berkel MYchair, the new lounge chair from Ben van Berkel / UNStudio, is an example of architect-designed contemporary furniture. MYchair is the first chair designed by Ben van Berkel/UNStudio and is described as a real architect's chair. image from designer "The architectural approach to furniture is different from that of the industrial designer as the architect begins with the space and the environment that the chair will become a part of. All the details of the chair are considered for their spatial effects. This architectural approach to furniture is connected with a very personal ideology of space." - Ben van Berkel Walter Knoll chair Genesy lamp for Artemide Design : Zaha Hadid Architects picture from architect The lamp’s structure increases in complexity as it rises from the floor. Like a growing organism, the central support sprouts branches that adopt a greater radial geometry to enhance the dynamic tensional forces of the structure. Nature continues to inform the design as these branches frame voids, enhancing the contrast between positive and negative, convex and concave, tension and compression.
