Sculptural furniture by Seth Rolland
I would love to have my home decorated entirely with designer pieces instead of soulless mass-production furniture, which is if I had a home of my own. Until then I can only dream of fitting in my imaginary bedroom a whimsical, curly Hayes cabinet and can only sigh for writing at the smooth, graceful Trimerous desk.
Furniture designer Seth Rolland shows his love for nature in every piece of home furnishings he creates. The simplicity and dynamic of the natural forms give his main inspiration while sustainably harvested wood is the basic material for the organic designed pieces.

Modern pyramids for book lovers
Don't think about Egyptian curses which need to be un-riddled by specialists, history lovers or book readers. Here is a discovery I "made" regarding trendy and eco friendly furniture; the pyramidal shelf, a thing which you can't ignore if you happen to be in the same room with it.
I guess furniture designers bet on unusual furnishing just because we can't ignore such things, thanks to their shape or materials used. Another must have piece of furniture which knows no law of gravity if you happen to close your eyes and only peek at it. And the funny thing is that the pyramid shelf is very light, as it is made out of aluminum.

Flavius - Romanian interior designer
I would like to present a Romanian interior designer who seemingly had captured the attention of British design schools. Flavius, is one of those young designers who learned designing all by himself, after attentively observing numerous tries and failures of others and reading tutorials on the internet.
He seems to have a gift for 3D imaging and interior design as you can see from the pictures below. He is simple, psychedelic oriented and fond to bright colors and excessive light. Although he doesn't have a degree in interior designing, there is no doubt he can arrange you things around the house.

Book me up for the collection - MYDNA bookcase
I'm all thumbs up for unconventional and modern furniture, especially if they are eco friendly, and that just because I'm against forest grubbing. But if you think otherwise, take into consideration the fact that it doesn't have to be necessarily woody to create an environmental effect.
Modern furniture designers test their ingenuity by creating twisted furniture pieces, literally. Take for example this MYDNA twisted bookcase from Joel Escalona's furniture studio. It's unique, fluid in shape and intriguing as a furniture piece.

Eco friendly furnishing wins every time
Eco friendly furnishing is very looked up by people who don't want to contribute at forest reclamations due to their civic values. For that, furniture designers come up with models of furniture made out of nonconformist materials such as fiber glass or polyurethane.
Although they bring an attribute to nature's elements, the Amaki sofa and Lyla lighting from Odue creations don't look very natural to me. Odue designers have a way with nowadays technology, as they prove handling very well the process of bending materials and color combination. The Amaki sofa is simple and very minimalist in appeal.
