When it comes to nations at the vanguard of modern design, your first thought might not be of Poland. Introducing the best of Polish design beyond its borders is the sole mission of Culture.pl . This year, the culture and arts agency is curating an exhibition of innovative design brands for a tour around the world. Showcasing the newest contemporary designs, from furniture and ceramics to glassware, Culture.pl has hit the global show circuit, including the London Design Festival and Maison&Objet. “Polish design has been flying under the radar for years,” says Culture.pl show organizer Barbara Krzeska. “We’re looking to bring it to the forefront." Participating most recently in New York’s WantedDesign event, small tech-savvy company Zieta Prozessdesign introduced its liquid mercury–like Tafla mirror. Meanwhile, established brands such as Kristoff have partnered with young graphic designers to develop modern versions of original glassware patterns. The exhibit is currently in Milan at La Triennale di Milano and opening in Brazil this weekend. Read on to see the latest products. You may soon be starting your own Polish design collection.

FiDU technology—slow material deformation using internal pressure—was used to create the Tafla mirror by Zieta Prozessdesign. Its collection consists of floor-standing and hanging mirrors made of steel.

Noti ’s Easy consists of modular furniture created for flexibility. Modules can be used as low-profile coffee tables or transformed into sofas when cushions are placed on top. An asymmetrical system of framed cabinets adds to storage capabilities, providing both cupboards and open bookshelves.

Luxury inflatable seating comes as part of Malafor ’s AIR collection. The Vertical Stool is fabricated from sailing textiles and compressed air resting on an oak frame. The fabric is puncture-resistant and flame-retardant.

Each tabletop piece in Modus Design ’s Blue Line porcelain collection is hand-painted with a cobalt trim. It was inspired by an artisanal method of decorating porcelain using a cobalt salt solution.

Designed from hard fine porcelain, Modelarnia Ceramiczna’s organic-shaped vessels, Otoczak can be displayed indoors or out. Their clear-glazed interiors makes them safe for food or florals.
