Media coverage
A small selection of recent coverage of our product and our work.
-
Judges from Interior Design Magazine selected the Bolster Chair as one of five HiP Award Finalists for Environmental Impact during NeoCon 2023.
-
"Not one to create waste or overage, the brand has designed 13 new products that are all 3D printed on demand at its micro-factory in California."
-
“It’s time to make pieces that create radical change. Our approach is intentional, of a compostable nature.”
-
"Model No., uses bio-resins that compost easily over time to finish their products. 'The surface has excellent wear characteristics over time, so it still looks good after hard use.'”
-
"People are realizing the supply chain has been so screwed. I don’t think it’s ‘Ra-ra-ra, built in America.’ I think it’s localized. Wherever you are doing business, you should be sourcing materials that are close to the end user. It’s globalization through localization."
-
“At Model No. we want everyone to rethink the business of furniture. We believe that being conscientious about how you can select furniture will lead to healthier environments and healthier clients and significantly improve the health of the planet.”
-
"It’s not a matter of whether it [3D printing] can be done, rather when others are going to start transitioning to better practices."
-
“The ethos of our organization and in the thread everything we do is around being as efficient and sustainable as possible. We try to reduce our carbon footprint.”
-
"By mixing in other traditional materials like wood, even though it's all being done in the same kind of digital fabrication way, we actually get a lot more traction with people because they still want it to look like [traditional] furniture."
-
“There is so much that can be done with our 3D printers by way of creating interesting designs and innovative shapes, sizes, colors and configurations that can be mixed and matched for different types of spaces.”
-
"Every Model No. piece is made to order in the company’s Oakland, California, micro-factory, which helps eliminate long wait times and wasteful inventory."
