Let\u2019s start with the basis. Modular furniture is pre-made items which can be combined in different ways and which can be used to the need and room spacing. It is extremely modern, easy to install and to dismantle, it helps to save space in the room, and, moreover, it could and should be used in various ways. Kitchen is probably the most popular modular furniture for home. However, bedrooms are quite popular as well. Office modular furniture is very popular in modern workplaces.<\/p>\n

If you start typing \u2018modular furniture\u2019 into Google search the first result you\u2019d see is \u2018modular furniture ikea\u2019. Fair enough, IKEA has always been famous for its modular pieces. However, there are so many more examples of beautiful modern items.<\/p>\n

Of course, the classic is Swiss USM<\/a>, who patented its signature modular furniture system, USM Haller, in 1965. The whole idea was inspired by Fritz Haller\u2019s modular architecture.<\/p>\n

Rethinking the Modular\u00a0(<\/em>Rethinking the Modular, edited by Burkhard Meltzer and Tido von Oppeln, published by Thames & Hudson on 11th April at \u00a324.95.) <\/em>is a\u00a0a new book coming out in order to celebrate USM\u2019s 50th anniversary. This book is the culmination of their activity; it contains previously published writings, interviews with leading figures in design, and specially commissioned essays from John Thackara and Rick Poyner. Rethinking the Modular<\/em>\u00a0aims\u00a0to redefine the place of modularity in modern design history.<\/p>\n
