Milan based Italian designer Henry Timi has built some incredible minimalist furniture over recent years, designing simple and pure shapes, refusing excess and the unnecessary. I would like to share with you today a small selection of seating furniture that reflects these qualities, but many more can be found on the Henry Timi website.

Timi explains his design philosophy:

I summarise and I develop objects with a minimalist vision. I just think of pure products - purity as the beauty. I promote the simplicity as the depth and the refinement to give value to objects and persons. I make things simpler in order to be better.

These pieces may not exude comfort exactly, but what I do appreciate is their quiet elegance, clean lines and detail.
