The Spaghetti Bench successfully makes wood look as flexible and moldable as pasta. The piece was by Pablo Reinoso, an artist with the Carpenters Workshop Gallery out of London. The Spaghetti Bench which takes an ordinary piece of furniture and deconstructs the straight lines of both the seat and the back into organic, free-flowing forms that topple down into a pile and then grow up the side of the wall like a vine.

Another bench by Pablo Reinoso is the Aluminum Bench which manipulates the back and seat. It looks like ripples in water, especially with the shininess of the aluminum and the highlights and shadows caused by the movement of the lines.

This piece by Wendell Castle, another artist with the Carpenters Workshop Gallery, is called Abilene Rocking Chair and is a fluid line of stainless steel like taffy wrapping around the finger and then pulled.

Another piece by Wendell Castle is an armchair called Nirvana. This shiny armchair features a side table and is molded out of polychromed fiberglass.

Artist Brodie Neill from Australia creates furniture with interesting curvilinear forms and lines. Remix is Neill’s chair is an chaise lounge is a mix of sourced and reclaimed materials carved into a smooth, organic form. Materials include a mix of acrylic, corian, plywoods, fibergoards and chipboard.

Brodie Neill’s @ Chair is made of carbon fiber and chrome in a continuous looping form that wraps around on itself like an @ symbol to form an elegant chair.
