Our Friends at Orange 22 released a new teaser for the Botanist Blank Canvas debuting later this month at ICFF. We did a few more in depth posts here and here about the rock star list of designers contributing to this project, and the refreshingly philanthropic twist that convinced them to get on board. To get it straight from the horses mouth you can check out Orange 22’s site.
We told told you about the Botanist Blank Canvas project a few weeks ago and we can finally allowed to brake our vow of silence on the impressive list of participating designers. The full list includes-
If you missed last weeks post, the Botanist Black Canvas Project is one of the first ever product design endeavors to incorporate philanthropy. For the rest of the details click here.
We were happy to show you the Botanist from our friends at Orange22 way back when, but they’ve just take it to a whole new level by giving designers the chance to give back. The Botanist is a minimalist indoor outdoor table made from a single sheet of aluminum. The fun comes in as designers use hydrojets to cut or etch designs into the table surface.The Botanist Blank Canvas project has recruited some design heavyweights by giving them a royalty, then giving a match donation to the charity of their choice. This is a new twist for the product design community, and hopefully one that will continue.We promised not to release the list of collaborators until the public launch of the project at ICFF next week, but if we made a list of our top ten favorite product designers, at least five of them are doing this. Place your bets now!For more info you can check out the Orange22 website.
We like to kick our feet up in style with the lovely new Flora from Los Angles based studio Orange22. The mix and match design is as flexible as their use (bench, coffee table, end table, etc). They come in a variety of colors and are also available with cushions and knocked out floral forms.
