Wolfgang Sirch The Ultimate Childrens Designer Toys- WWW.GIBRALTARFURNITURE.COM

Wolfgan Toys by Sirch

The Sirch family has been producing products in wood for over 300 years in Germany.

During the last part of the 20th century, the SIRCH Company specialized in industrial shipping pallets, which they continue to manufacture today.  After the death of his father Isidor Sirch, Wolfgang Sirch, an interior architect, became president.  For a new synergy, he brought Christoph Bitzer, a sculptor, into the company.
The Sirch-Bitzer team began designing and producing very special items for children under the brand name Sibi.  All Sibi products are handmade in the Sirch factory in Bavaria, primarily in wood. The first Sibi products introduced in 2000 were the VILLA Sibi modernist doll house, MAX push car and LORETTE Trailer.  Sibi products have been awarded the prestigious German “Spiel Gut” design award for toys.  The worldwide reception to Sibi designs has met with equally great success.

Charles-Edouard Jeanneret, widely known as Le Corbusier (October 6, 1887 – August 27, 1965), was a French Swiss born architect, famous for his contributions to what is now called modernism, or the International Style, along with Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Walter Gropius, and Theo van Doesburg.. He was a pioneer in theoretical studies of modern design and was dedicated to providing better living conditions for the residents of crowded cities.

Le Corbusier began experimenting with furniture design in 1928 after inviting the architect Charlotte Perriand to join his studio. His cousin Pierre Jeanneret also collaborated on many of the designs. Before the arrival of Perriand, Le Corbusier relied on ready-made furniture to furnish his projects, such as the simple pieces manufactured by Thonet.

He was without any doubt the most articulate and one of the most eloquent voices on design and architecture in the U.S.A. of the 20th century. In 1971 he received a grant from the Graham Foundation for his project “Hidden Cities”.

A major revolution is occurring in design products for post modern outdoor landscaping applications and indoor use. Serralunga, Studio4LA, and the Trivi Collection are in the vanguard for many of these new exciting shapes and forms that are sweeping the world of art, architecture, and exterior design.

These products showcase spectacular artisan fabrication, unique geometry, and post modern design features that are wowing crowds in Milan, Pairs, and New York. The result is a new school of art that is a world apart from their predecessors.

Gibraltar Furniture is the leading source for designers, architects, and landscapers for Serralunga, Studio4LA, and Trivi collection products in the United States. This internet resource is a deep discount supplier of high end products at wholesale prices.

One of the recognized leaders in this field is a European entity called Serralunga, who have been producing stylish planters since 1825. Serralunga is a company located in the Biella section of Italian. This group has a tradition of more than 170 years of container production.

Born before the industrial revolution, Serralunga recently changed material typology from traditional clay pots to futuristic models. Serralunga’s concept is to feature classical design lines and post-modern shapes.

Today, Serralunga is the leader in the production of contemporary style flower pots, vases, and containers. For example the New Pot range is a classic shaped planter that has been designed by Paolo Rizzatto, and is available in an extensive range of sizes.

The pots are made from rotationally molded polyethylene, and are strong, lightweight and will tolerate subzero temperatures, and will have a much longer life than traditionally made pots. Serralunga recently commissioned some of the world’s leading designers to create a new line of vases and flower pots for both interior and exterior use. These artists include the world famous Ron Arad, Alberto Meda, Denis Santachiara, Luisa Bocchietto, and Rodolfo Dordoni.

These designers have paid close attention to polymer evolution and have applied new plastic technology to current articles, but keeping their use and functionality unchanged.

Serralunga concentrates on creativity, aesthetics and functional details. Last but not least, Serralunga spotlights traditional Italian prose, beauty, and style in every piece. For more info on Serralunga got to www.serralunga.com.

In America, Studio4LA is a leader in cutting edge planters, containers, and pots.

This company is an artisan based group that casts post modern shapes in their southland studio. Concrete is the main media in a line of unique water based fountains. Water Line’s pure forms exemplify Studio04’s primary design focus of juxtaposing modern materials — Concrete — with organic elements — Water.

These Water Features introduce a modernity rarely present in landscape design today, with the sounds of cascading water bringing respite and relaxation to any garden, residence or work space.

All of the water features are treated with a matte finish sealer on interior and exterior surfaces and come with a drainage hole to allow for easy cleaning. All Water Features come with an underwater pump and river rocks. Studio4LA products can also bee made to order .in a rainbow of custom colors. Lights are also available for maximum effect.

Trevi Manufacturing, Inc. was founded in 1997 by Scott and Gabrielle Acton. Formerly Cast in Stone, the company focused on the manufacturing of cast concrete products with an emphasis on the custom design and construction of one-of-kind components used in large architectural undertakings. Examples of the company’s work can be seen in some of the world’s most recognizable themed attractions and resorts. Trevi has come a long way, refining proprietary techniques and formulation of composite materials to create a variety of products.

Founder, Scott Acton, explains some clear advantages to using Trevi products, “One of the challenges of sculpture and casting is building designs that are both lighter and stronger. Trevi has developed a process that casts concrete at almost half the weight of standard precast concrete. Coupled with creative designs, we strive to bring the pleasure of fountains, planters and statuary without hurting anybody’s back.

The focus of Trevi’s business has expanded to include the design and crafting of attractive fountains, planters and statuary for commercial and consumer use. Three generations of Acton family designs continue to influence the expansion of the Trevi Collection. Homeowners, interior designers and architects appreciate the range of unique choices available in the Trevi Collection.

Atomic Furniture – Mid Century Retro Cool Design Craze Sweeps the World

Mid-century modern furniture has become hugely popular – Secret weapon websites for retro cool design at warehouse prices.

Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) October 10, 2006 – The Mid Century retro modern furniture movement has taken center stage in the world of design furniture today. In recent years, mid-century modern furniture, glass, ceramics, and textiles have become hugely popular among those who appreciate the stylish contribution these pieces make to contemporary homes.

At the close of World War II the US was electrified with optimism about the future. America began a love affair with fashionable living in a post atomic world. Kidney shaped tables, boomerang sofas, and amoeba forms are the hallmarks of this distinctive 1950’s furniture style. Retro modern chic is characterized by space age materials, innovative biometric designs, and trend setting colors.

The leading architects of this school include Ray and Charles Eames, Harry Bertoia, Arne Jacobson, Isamu Noguchi, and Eero Saarinen among others.

A Google search indicates that the foremost source for mid-century furniture is Gibraltar Furniture, which features retro-modern and a wide array of discount architectural modern, high quality items at discount prices. Gibraltar Furniture is one of the leaders in the world of Internet modern architectural products. Gibraltar sells both original and reproduction furniture manufactured in Italy, America, and Asia, with original specifications, exceptional qualities, and the finest selections, at cut-rate prices.

Gibraltar offers the classic Noguchi Coffee Table for only $545, whereas Knoll sells this piece at Design Within Reach for $1,195. Similarly, an Eames Lounge Chair and Ottoman will set you back $3,125 at DWR but wholesales for only $1,599 at Gibraltar.

Located at www.gibraltarfurniture.com and (800 416-3635), this West coast company has been in operation for over 50 years. Gibraltar is based in Beverly Hills, 90210, and is an insider secret weapon for cool merchandise at warehouse prices. This supplier is an excellent resource for factory-direct pricing on all mid-century pieces, and offers designs by Wright, Bertoia, Saarinen, Jacobson, Nelson and Kjaerholm, at cut-rate prices.

With roots in prewar Germany, modernism leaped to popularity in postwar America. Early advocates included architects Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Walter Gropius. Incipient modernism blended functionality with frugality. Between 1945 and 1960, architects like Frank Lloyd Wright and designers like George Nelson revolutionized the home furniture landscape and helped create the template for the modern retro look.

Baby Boomers and Generation X consumers are clamoring for postwar pieces that are still breathtaking and beautiful due their clean and chic lines. Modern architecture was a direct rebuttal to the busy neoclassical styles that came before.

Retro modern furnishings feature styles such as low-slung sofas and ovoid glass coffee tables that spotlight asymmetrical and free-form shapes. Huge advances in postwar polymers, injection molding techniques, and machine techniques helped designers fashion unique products that previously were unimaginable.

That lime-green Egg chair of grandma’s – which you thought so hideous as a child – would now be snapped up in a second by a savvy collector. Modern Retro is not about slavishly recreating a period feel. Instead, it encompasses the best designs, eclectic forms, colors, and patterns.

In addition to classic designs, Gibraltar is introducing a new series of innovative furniture products that take their inspiration from mid century schools of design. Companies such as Jet Age and Lunar Lounge Design are creating exciting new items in the retro cool tradition.

Gibraltar offers the entire line of products from Color & Life, Compar, David Edward, Davis Furniture, Fabulux, Firefarm, Girari, Gordon International, Grey, Havaseat Chairs, Innovation, IQMatics, Janke, Jet Age, Kenshoma, Litto Kids, Lunar Lounge, Malik, Ooba, Oeuf, Offi, OFM, Ogus Design, The Phillips Collection, Serralunga, Studio4LA, Touch Design/Lighting, Trevi Outdoor, the Vessel Architectural Pottery collection, Zuo Modern, and 100 Times Better, among others.
