Dutch designer Daphna Isaacs Burggraaf and Laurence Manders are the designers behind Daphna Laurens, a multidisciplinary studio in Eindhoven. The two met as students ("We found that while working together—or, as we prefer to say, working as one designer—our work was far more fruitful and artistically rich," they say) and have designed shelving for Cappellini and the C chair concept for Poltrona Frau. We are especially drawn to their functional, straightforward pieces for the kitchen. To see more, go to Daphna Laurens.
