Inspiration
This design is an expression of the freedom of flight. The shapes are biomorphic
and abstract- birds, but not birds. They scatter across the curved surfaces like
leaves blown by the breeze, random, chaotic, joyful. The colors are earth tones, the
color of plains, forests and deserts, the color of the land beneath the sky and the
cycle of the seasons.
I recently learned to fly. Flying a small plane is a study in contradictions; it is both
an expression of freedom and an acknowledgment of man’s lack of freedom. I am
pushing my self expression further than most pilots by learning aerobatics. Being
able to do loops, rolls and hammerheads allows me to play in all three dimensions.
But even the best airplane can only approximate the experience a bird must have.
Knowing instinctively how to fly from soon after birth, to them, the sky must feel
like home.

Collaborate, create, and give back...responsible design.
Eight icons of design have joined forces with Orange22 Design Lab to launch the firm’s Blank Canvas Project. All of the super high-profile designers, including Yves Behar, Kamin Rashid, MIlton Glaser and Massimo Vignelli, have created new editions of Orange22’s indoor-outdoor, eco-friendly Botanist furniture. Botanist matches each designers royalty to a foundation or charity of their choice.
“When we began thinking about the Botanist Blank Canvas project two years ago, we knew we wanted to produce more than furniture. Botanist is about entrusting our colleagues – each of whom we admire, to do what they love and give back in the process. Botanist is simply a unique business model that serves as a catalyst to empower design for positive change,” says Dario Antonioni, founder of Orange22.
Creativity empowered for positive change.
Botanist is a winning formula, because while the project has produced breathtaking furniture, it will also effect positive social change. Orange22’s original Botanist line features intricate surface patterns cut with water-jet technology. Each sleek, metal form begins its life as a Blank Canvas.
“We designed the structures to be strong and versatile enough to sustain any pattern we could imagine,” says Antonioni. “Now, the industry’s most celebrated designers will do the dreaming. Consumers are embracing design more and more each year and now with the Blank Canvas program they purchase furniture products with the knowledge that they too will be making a difference.”
-Dario Antonioni, founder of Orange 22
