Industrial Concrete Sewn Furniture by Florian Schmid

We have already told you of Corian embroidered furniture and pompoms furniture, but sewn furniture? Why not? German designer Florian Schmid makes benches and armchairs of fabric pervaded with concrete, the material is called concrete canvas. The concrete canvas is cut and sewn and left on the wood stand to dry. The material is water-, fire- and chemicals- resistant, it’s a revolutionary thing. The pieces are decorated with colorful threads – blue, red, black or other colors. Such grey furniture with colorful decorations looks casual and very modern – from its industrial nature to its look.
