Injection-molded polyethylene emerges as something wholly natural and fluid in Tokujin Yoshioka’s Tokyo-Pop Collection (2002). The indoor/outdoor collection’s sensuous, organic lines were defined by the proportions of the human body, creating a study in the innovative use of a man-made material. Described by the U.K. Times as a surprisingly comfortable “molded, rigid reclining device,” the Tokyo-Pop Lounge allows the user to lay back, while remaining upright enough to partake in the conversation. Initially fabricated out of pliable honeycomb paper,the prototype was then shaped on the basis of the imprint left by a body while settling into it. The polyethylene used to mold the collection is 100% recyclable. more featured furniture

For art collectors in Dallas and across the U.S., it’s musings like these that make Guignon’s work a delight to include in their collections. And Guignon has a wide selection of “practical” art forms to choose from: sculpture, lamps, lighting, scarves, purses, kimonos, and dolls — all fashioned with the artist’s unique sensibilities read the article

As a builder and designer of “modern homes” I am looking for clarification of the term “affordable” and/or “reasonably” priced modern homes.
When speaking of affordable/reasonably priced modern home are you referring to:

This would be the perfect house for those who love to entertain and also have a need for privacy. view details
