The history of objects also tells the story of their creators and the places where they were created. This exhibition, curated by the Department of Furniture at the University of Arts in Poznań and the UAP Foundation, offers insight into the history of Greater Poland's design traditions. These are evidenced by objects created over sixty years and designed by three generations – including recent student projects, works by educators, and classics of Polish design revived by nowymodel.org.
Designers presented at the exhibition „"The Greater Poland tradition of furniture design"” are: Rajmund Teofil Hałas, Aleksander Kuczma, Władysław Wróblewski, Jolanta Usarewicz-Owsian, Wojciech Hora, Marek Owsian, Katarzyna Laskowska, Joanna Barańska-Woźny, Mateusz Wróblewski, Marta Szczepańska, Monika Frisztig, Dorota Terlecka, Dorota Koziara, Karol Starczewski, Szymon Filoda, Anna Trafas-Kowalczyk, Michał Kowalski. Student projects from the 1990s: Agnieszka Haberska, Katarzyna Maciejko; from the first decade of the 21st century: Marta Bartkowiak, Justyna Brejdak, Michał Bartkowiak; and the latest projects by current students of the Department of Furniture: Marta Prasek, Filip Żuchowski, Tomasz Pawłowski, Łukasz Marcinkowski, Wiktoria Mrozek, Agnieszka Dolska.
The exhibition features 40 projects from the last 70 years, including 10 implemented by nowymodel.org.
exhibition curators: Kasia Laskowska, Kasia Jeżowska

The KAL swivel chair designed by Aleksander Kuchma in 1979 was prototyped at OBROM in the late 1970s in several material versions.
Since January 2013, the nowymodel.org team, together with Professor Aleksander Kuczma, has been developing new technology for the KAL chair.
The product will be launched in late 2013 and will be available at www.nowymodel.org.







The GRAZIA sofa, designed by Ryszard Mańczak, was included in the "Icon Product Yearbook 2013" among the 54 most interesting pieces of furniture of the past year.
The selection was made by the editorial staff of the prestigious British monthly "Icon", devoted to modern architecture and design around the world.

Nasz nowy model na świetne samopoczucie jesienią i zimą – dizajnerskie lampy COSY.
Dają przyjazne, miękkie światło i odwzorowują kształty z przyrody, którymi zachwycamy się latem – główkę makówki, dynię, pancerz jeżowca… Macie jeszcze inne ciekawe skojarzenia? Abażury lamp COSY z elastycznego tworzywa lub filcu powstają z łączenia elementów poprzez zaplatanie na zasadzie zamka błyskawicznego. Miejsca łączenia tworzą dekoracyjny motyw.
Projekt: Michał Kowalski
