Objekten EcoCushions designed by Alain Berteau
Spotted at Maison & Objet 2012, Objekten is a new line curated by Brussels-based designer and architect Alain Berteau. The range of everyday products debuted under the collection name New Basics and is cleverly divided by categories based on finishes like
Padded, Quilted, Matt and Fur. We especially liked designer Sylvain Willenz' Matt collection of desktop storage items and portable device cases made in soft plastisol and Claire Debien's Fur mobile device covers. As the designer explains, "Today, portable devices are like pets, we take care of of them and they follow us everywhere."

Marc Thorpe explains why the brand caught his eye, "Objekten, developed by Alain Berteau, is the perfect new design company of products for everyday. Simple, intelligent, modern, witty, quality and best of all affordable."
