Some accessories designers go for a just "get the job done" approach- which is fine. Gus Modern has a different approach. They make unique accessories that have a distinct flair (the Acrylic Wine Holder, for instance), and they also make accessories that look different through their outwardly boring appearance (see the Light Cube). You could say that their approach to home decor is "Let's take stuff that accomplishes ordinary tasks and make it stand out more than people are used to." We approve.Inspired by simple forms and honest materials, Gus Modern lives on the simplicity of everyday objects, and strives to combine great design and practical purpose. Gus Modern furniture is inspired by mid-century design philosophies, featuring clean, tailored, classic lines and shapes -- making it a favorite choice for architects and designers alike.
