KEN FOREMAN | Ken Foreman’s design firm utilizes his fine art education along with his knowledge of the “nuts and bolts” of construction. His firm’s uniqueness is its ability to combine furnishings, artistic sensibility and practical aspects such as a hands-on understanding of how things can be put together. Ken specializes in New York City residential renovations and has also built a number of offices and art galleries.
The Series 3000 Sofa | “The Danish have always had refined design built into their DNA. This sofa was designed in 1934 and is inspirational to furniture designers today. It epitomizes the 20thcentury love of functional simplicity.”
The Charles Sofa | “An Italian classic for more than 20 years, today it ranks as one of the most “knocked-off” on the low end market. However, even the best imitators cannot equal its perfect proportions and superb craftsmanship.”
The Arper Saari 3-Seat Sofa | “Don’t be fooled by appearances. This sofa is a must for people with a problem with slick European sofas. Its seats are not too low or deep. This makes sitting or standing up from the sofa easier for most people. The sofa is certainly not made for “couch potatoes,” instead it is for those sophisticated people who simply want beauty mixed with proper posture.”
The Floating Curved Sofa | “A modernist piece of sculpture that one can comfortably sit on. It’s become an icon of 1950s modern design. Today one can see the vision of Hans Arp, Alexander Calder and Zaha Hadid reflecting its biomorphic style.”
