Kid Forward Design
Vitra's Eames Elephant, Ferm Living's Giraffe Bookcase, and more
Kids' furniture doesn't have to look like kids' furniture. Four pieces this week that work in their room and the rest of the house too.
Vitra's Eames Elephant is the 1945 Eames design icon, now in recycled plastic that kids are encouraged to sit on. Ferm Living's Giraffe Bookcase is a giraffe-shaped bookcase with three open shelves for books and toys. From the same studio, the Little Architect Desk gives a kid their own spot to draw and make things, in solid ash and six colors. And Offi's Baltic Rocking Horse is a molded birch plywood classic that's been in production for over 50 years.
