SLIDESHOW: Codor Design. Says the namesake designer: ‘My goal is to create a design house that keeps putting out new designs as long as we exist. We are not interested in mass manufacturing and getting things done cheaply. We are interested in trying new things, finding new materials, and expanding into more avenues of design.’

Style Counselor Tamara Codor is the kind of girl who manages to look purposeful in painting overalls and a sweater. Like she means it—which of course she does. She’s a finely trained working artist and hands-on furniture designer, but you wouldn’t necessarily know that if you saw her crossing Broadway and Pine.

And you might not necessarily know, if you saw her out of those overalls and inside a pencil skirt, that she was partially responsible for a living room full of sturdily graceful neo-green furniture.

Along with Sterling Voss, Codor creates under the name Codor Design. The slideshow here gets you inside the pieces and inside the minds of Codor and Voss (who happens to be pretty great-looking also; we’ll have to photograph him next time).
