Hallway Bench

The Hallway Bench is an original furniture piece that i designed based on inspiration from Mondrian's paintings. The structure is constructed from square metal bars. The colored planes are made of wood wrapped in colored leather. This piece is meant to be placed in a hallway or foyer. When someone would enter the house then would place there keys and wallet on the raised blue table section. Then sit on the red bench and remove their shoes and place them on the gray shoe rack.

Levitation Bench

My inspiration for the Levitation Bench came from looking at other types of cushioning in benches and chairs; I discovered that most furniture uses either springs or foam as a cushion inside a fabric wrapped enclosure. I now have created a way of using the opposite push two magnets create when placed paralleled to each other to create this same result. The clear plexiglass top is embedded with magnets and the steal frame below is as well. When positioned on the guide bars the plexiglass floats a few inches above the steal structure.
