The Contempra Telephone 1967. John Tyson, a recent graduate of the Ontario College of Art (OCAD), joined Northern Electric's Carling Campus in Ottawa as their first industrial designer. A few months later he was asked to design a new phone that could be built at their London, Ontario factory using as many Canadian components as possible. Tyson also took the advice of his teachers at OCAD and designed two phones, his own new design and another that exactly met the original requirements management had set down, which produced "an amorphous blob". About 18 months after joining Northern Electric he presented both models; his design immediately caught their eye and the original requirements were forgotten. This was followed by a naming contest, which was initially leaning toward either "Expo", due to the upcoming Expo 67, or "Tinkerbell", a play on the name of Dreyfuss' Princess. Tyson eventually convinced everyone that Contempra was the right name. #toronto #design #industrialdesign #ocadu #bellnorthern #canada #canadiandesign (at Toronto, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKwsD52Mv95/?igshid=11h330sb3xsxz

The #AtwoodBiSectional is a tailored design featuring a blind-tufted seat, back and arms, along with piping details which lend to a clean, sophisticated look. This sectional is cleverly designed to allow the chaise to be positioned on the left or the right, so it can adapt to any room layout. Alternatively, the chaise can be easily separated to create a sofa and a free-floating lounge. The solid wood perimeter base is walnut finish with tapered legs. The frame is constructed with kiln-dried 100% FSC®-Certified hardwood in support of responsible forest management🌳. Part of the Atwood Series, the Bi-Sectional matches perfectly with the Atwood Chair, Sofa and Lounge. • To view our complete collection visit www.gusmodern.com or stop by your local Gus* retailer this weekend (to find your Gus* retailer click link in bio). https://ift.tt/3bhXU8t
