Photographer turned furniture designer Hedi Slimane's newest endeavor into the world of office furniture is a structured and geographical one. Using ebonized stainless steel, his creations include desks, chairs, and shelves that use a pattern of angles, squares, and thin lines to create a modern minimalist appearance. Although sleek and beautiful to look at, and sure to make a statement as part of a decorating scheme, I can't say they look comfortable at all to actually sit on or use. But then, that's obviously not the point.

It looks pretty sensational but definitely not comfortable. Could look good in offices and waiting rooms. Add a touch of class.

umm, you do realize that he isn't primarily a photographer, but rather a fashion designer? He's been designing Dior homme for quite a few seasons now pretty successfully.

THESE PIECES LOOK AS COMFY AS HIS DESIGNS FOR DIOR HOMME........ NOT VERY. MY ASSE ACHES JUST LOOKING AT IT. HE LOVES EVERYTHING SKINNY, EVEN HIS FURNITURE. NO DENYING THE MAN HAS TALENT AND HIS TIME AT DIOR HAS BREATHED NEW LIFE INTO THE HOUSE.
