OFFI’S Modern Designs are Clean and Simple

If you like contemporary design, you’ll love OFFI & Company. Launched in 1997, this manufacturer offers beautiful, practical kids’ furnishings with a modern vibe and plenty of pizzazz. OFFI products are the work of a group of independent designers, many of whom have won awards for their creations. Rock on in the OFFI rocker which combines style and practicality in a chair with a lift-up seat that provides a great space to store treasures. The rocker has a handy hole in the back so it’s easy for kids to move around and is crafted in beautiful birch wood.

Parents on the hunt for a contemporary crib will favor the Bebe, with its simple design that is as beautiful as it is sturdy. A separate trundle unit fits neatly under the crib to hold extra bedding or other nursery needs.

The Play-a-Round activity table provides support for hours of creative fun. Clean and simple, the table can accommodate four mini-drawer chairs; a great way to store markers and crayons so they’re right at hand.

Interior Design magazine selected the OFFI Coosh lounge and ottoman as part of its Future Furniture juried exhibition. The creations also exhibited at the 2003 Cooper Hewitt National Design Triennial, “Inside Design Now.” Touchy-feely Coosh is cut from a block of high-density foam, making it the perfect spot for kids to kick back, relax, tube out or play a favorite video game in comfort.

The Puzzle Chair, designed by New York architect David Jones, is made of four parts in bright, primary colors that can be re-assembled many times. Since kids and never-enough-storage go together, OFFI Nester Boxes offer a simple solution. Finely crafted in molded ply, Nester Boxes fit inside each other for easy transport and can be stacked or used singly.

The OFFI Benchbox is another space saver, offering a comfortable seat and plenty of storage beneath. Even when fully loaded with books and magazines, casters make it easy to move. Turn off the dark with My Pet Lamp, available in whimsical shapes including kitty, dachshund and teddy, available in a host of colors including soft white, sunset orange and misty green. My Pet Lamp, made of non-toxic, odorless plastic, uses a low-voltage bulb that bathes a room in a soft glow.

Tired shoppers can pull up an EVA Foam Stool and sit for a spell. Foam makes these stools incredibly comfortable and sturdy — even though they’re child-sized, each piece can support up to 300 pounds! Eva Foam Tables, Chairs and Stools are at home indoors or out and can be stacked or made into a sculpture or room divider.
