Recently, we moved into a brand new building.  Minus the ups and downs of moving, and the shortfalls of new construction (too bad), we love the clean lines, mid-century modern influence and urban vibe.  My affection for modern, simple furniture is at its peak right now, attracted to those products that have a modern appeal and that are flexible in so many settings.  As I continue to come across NeoCon 2011 introductions, now that they are more mainstream, fitting to my current taste is Loewenstein's Bända lounge furniture – pure and simple.

Bända Designed by Daniel Korb for Loewenstein.

Adjust and Readjust Bända As Needed

Clever design doesn't get any better than this.  Designed by Daniel Korb for Loewenstein, Bända replaces the mass and bulk of conventional lounge furniture with an open steel frame that creates accessible, fluid spaces. It’s scalable framesets and smart elements provide virtually unlimited options for modular seating, tables, and space division.

Easy to configure, Bända is flexible enough to be used in a large open space or a small intimate lounge or waiting area. I especially love that the open frame allows easy access for power and data cable, a must in our typical, tech savvy, on-the-go lifestyle. Plus, the ease of adding lighting and universal components creates effortless personal work areas or collaborative sit-downs. Bända is completely modular and can adjust and readjust to a wide range of interior settings.

Select from eight standard powder-coat frame colors, ten paint colors and three Corian colors to create the right Bända configuration to complement any interior. Create a bench configuration or add the optional backrest.  Wood arms are available in multiple finish options.  Table surface options are also available in two heights and in wood veneer or solid surface.

The vast variety of finish options mixed with configuration options make the combinations almost endless, without compromising the integrity of Bända's unique design.
