Branch, from Danchong

Branch offered a nicely designed collection from Korean design firm, Danchong.

The Branch tray comes in a few sizes, the largest was about a foot long. Made of white acrylic resin, The concept was to create a tray with the idea of branches in a forest. Whatever the idea, it was lovely.

Similarly, Branch lighting is made of the same resin. I liked the light (no pun intended) feeling.

The Early Bird Vase was designed to create the illusion of a bird flying with a flower in its mouth.

Finally, the Branch chair and stool have a definite Asian feel to them. The principal designer, Eunsook Kwon, told me he wanted to give the feeling of sitting among trees in the forest.

I think it’s important to give these designers exhibiting (sometimes a long way from home) our support. So much hard work and talent goes into what they do. By the way, I know I’m writing today about things that are not yet available for sale.

Perhaps with some publicity from the blogging community we can help get their work supported. Don’t you agree?
