Italian furniture company De Padaova recently enlisted the creative talents of Swedish designer Monica Förster for the creation of the Florinda chair.

Available in a variety of bright colours, the Florinda chair is suitable for use in both private and public settings.

WALLPAPER Multimedia design fi rm Trove, known for its modern photographic wallcoverings, has developed an innovative new wallpaper made from stone. The paper was named Stoneground by the design team and is made from a combination of mineral powder (calcium carbonate) and non-toxic resin (PE). The environmentally-friendly paper, which debuted at ICFF in New York this year, contains no wood products so no trees have been cut down in the manufacturing process. It also requires no water in the production process and thanks to the paper’s unique fi breless make-up, 20-30 per cent less ink is required during the printing process.
