For those who like rustic style but do not want to give up modern functionality, the Havana Modular collection from Gloster Furniture provides an excellent alternative to traditional seating. Cubic modules are woven using the rustic Havana wicker and teamed with angular seat and back cushions in this design-conscious collection. Simplicity and functionality were the key requirements for Danish designer Povl Eskilsden, so he designed a modular collection consisting of six items only. IHFC IH206
