Inspired by Lace

I've been collecting the best pieces of design and furniture I can find that have been inspired by lace and crochet. Here are some of them (from left to right):
  1. A gorgeous piece of real black and white lace to be inspired by.
  2. White Lace Table designed by Marcel Wanders. If you haven't heard of him yet - Marcel Wanders is a living modern classic. Named in the 100 most influential people in Holland, Marcel Wanders is ubiquitous, designing for the biggest European contemporary design manufacturers including B&B Italia, Bisazza, Poliform, Moroso, Flos, Boffi, Cappellini, Droog Design and Moooi (which he is also art director and co-owner).

  10. Prince chair designed by Louise Campbell and produced by Hay. Signaling a return of the extraordinary Danish design of the 50s, the Prince chair was designed by Louise Campbell for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Frederik.
