BassamFellows Ottomans and Poufs

American

The work of BassamFellows introduces elegance and charm into just about any space. The celebrated design firm’s minimalist stools, armchairs and other seating pieces — typically made of oak, walnut or ash — are defined by the clean lines and alluring organic forms associated with the best of mid-century modernism.

Bassam Fellows, which is focused on furniture and product design, architectural projects and branding, is the result of a collaboration between Australian architect Craig Bassam and American entrepreneur Scott Fellows. Fellows, whose career included partnerships with the likes of Ferragamo and Corning Housewares, began to work with Bassam when it became clear that the pair shared similar creative visions as to the look, feel and quality of furniture and interior design. (The duo owns a Philip Johnson-designed home not far from the Glass House, a modernist marvel designed by Johnson in Connecticut.) 

BassamFellows became an immediate hit among designers and decorators at the 2003 Salone del Mobile in Milan with the debut of their quintessential Tractor stool, a sculptural stool designed by Craig that draws on Swiss metal tractor seats and is made from locally harvested solid wood.

Bassam serves as the company's chief designer, while Fellows operates as the company's creative director, bringing expertise in commerce and brand strategy to the table. Together, the team has created furniture in their “Craftsman Modern” style for clients such as Geiger and Herman Miller, and has developed working relationships with leading architects, branding professionals, artisans and designers all over the world.

Afra & Tobia Scarpa ‘Benetton’ Stool in Leather and Steel
By Afra & Tobia Scarpa
Located in Waalwijk, NL
Afra & Tobia Scarpa for Benetton Office, folding stool or ottoman, leather, steel, Italy, 1985. This rare stool is designed for the office of the clothing brand Benetton by Afra & Tobia Scarpa. Thick cognac leather in patinated condition is spanned between the steel frame comprised of tubular rods, which enrich the look in a vigorous manner. Functionality comes into play through the various functions this item embraces: you can simultaneously use it as an ottoman for your easy chair or as a stool to sit on. Overall, pure forms and fine materials combine into a modern and clean design. Afra (1937-2011) & Tobia (1935-) Scarpa are a duo of Italian architects and designers mostly known for their postmodern style. Afra Bianchin was born in 1937 in Montebelluna while Tobia Scarpa, son of the architect Carlo Scarpa, was born in 1935 in Venice. The couple met when they were both studying at the Venice Institute of Architecture and married afterwards. From 1957 until 1961, Tobia worked as a glass designer at the Murano glassworks of Venini. However, in 1960, the duo started to collaborate, and they set up one of the most successful and well-known professional studios. Together, they worked for companies such as Flos Gavina, B&B Italia, and Knoll. The couple won numerous amounts of awards like the Compasso d’Oro and the International Forum Design. Throughout their career, the duo carried out commissions for well-known companies, including Benetton. Overall, their designs are known for their modernist aesthetic, prioritizing elegance and comfort. However, at the same time, their pieces are admired for the ease with which they lean towards classical designs. Moreover, the creations show their deep understanding for materials. Today, many of their works can be found in major museums such as Museum of Mod­ern Art of New York...
