Furniture Design Details That Make Products Stand Out In Unique Ways

We believe that everyone should embrace their uniqueness and shouldn’t settle for universal designs or products. We’re all different and that’s something to be proud of. This needs to be reflected in everything we do and everything we surround ourselves with such as furniture or everyday accessories. Unique furniture is hard to come by and that’s why custom-made designs are very appreciated. Every once in a while something stands out. We come across a really interesting concept, design and we think we should definitely remember that for our next home remodel. Ideas like those were put together here. We hope you’ll enjoy our selection of unusual furniture design details.

Nature is a great source of inspiration for interesting and unique pieces of furniture. A beautiful example is this modern coffee table which features thick cylindrical legs that support a solid round top.

The I-Beam sofa also has a hint of industrial charm given by the aluminum support. But the most eye-catching part would have to be the design and shape of the legs. They extend out of the frame to the sides, becoming eye-catching details with sculptural appeal.
