F/22 Picks
Rowe Furniture
Coffee Table
ROWE has always been a consistent brand that not only provides beautiful designs but also extremely functional ones. This table is the perfect size and shape for our larger family rooms we create. The open base with the elevated shelf gives the design an airy feel while still feeling substantial and prominent.
Highland House Furniture
Willie Oak Game Table
As a part of the Willie Oak Collection, Highland House has unleashed this functional beauty for all the gamers out there! This table seemed so perfect for my mother-in-law who loves puzzles but may not have room on the table for a good cocktail. Able to be repositioned into a pocket, these cup holders come with a delicate knob to add to the visual beauty of this functional table.
Ambella Home Collection, Inc.
Duvall Sofa
What originally caught my eye was how the back embraced the sofa on both sides. But while there, our rep removed the center pillow, which made the sofa look like a standard piece, only to reveal this open cut-out, which made it feel more like two-sided seating, offering a more functional design than other sofas! Also, so that its clear...I didnt know this was named the Duvall until a day or two AFTER we spotted this! But how funny is this?! ^_^
Modern History Inc.
Bellini Hall Bench
Here is one of those pieces that stopped me in my tracks! I was captivated by its simplicity but was drawn in even more with the uncomplicated details that are found in the arms and back. Such a great entry way bench or even an end-of-bed bench for a more traditional room.
Norwalk Furniture
Paris Sectional
Although this has shown at Market before, I was surprised that I had not heard more about this. With its standard sectional layout, I felt like this piece could be the next iteration of what curved furniture could be. Rather than having a spherical end we are met with a rounded triangular edge, offering a geometric design while remaining approachable and inviting. Paired with the two rounded ottomans, the sectional still feels fresh but mature.
Kenneth Cobonpue
Limbo Hoop
Quite possibly my favorite piece, this art piece captures a spontaneous moment of an aerialist in mid-flight. Made of gossamer wires handwoven in a lattice pattern, this dramatic design is both an art piece and a functional lamp! If you get to see this in-person, be sure to note the intricate floral designs that make up parts of her body!
Classic Home
Wave Outdoor Dining Set
This product came as a complete surprise to me. When walking their enormous showroom, I initially thought this dining set was for interiors. But when finding out that this is an outdoor dining set, I nearly gasped! With its soft curves, concrete-like composition, and fluted base details, this 79 outdoor dining set is the perfect example of indoor-outdoor living.
SUNPAN
Ionic Sofa
Not yet released to the public, I think this sofa is going to be a major hit for Sunpan. The Ionic Sofa is the perfect approach to this new wave of modern design. The open center base offers a fresh and airy feel while the connected arm+base combo, grounds the left and right.
Vanguard Furniture Co Inc
Nest Sectional
This was definitely the coolest piece I saw at Market! Imagine a collection of interchangeable ottomans, bumpers, floating pillows and arms that can be mixed and mingled to create infinite configurations--this is what I found!! The Nest sectional pushes the boundaries of design and explores a new approach to seating that can be customized to the space and driven by your imagination. This would be perfect for family rooms, basements, and even commercial spaces. Also, while the backs were mobile, they still provided a great sense of security when positioned, which gave me confidence that this design really does work!
Caracole
Bustle Chair
This was a surprise find in Caracole! Not quite knowing what to expect, I was quickly met with this rosy tint beauty that was delightedly unexpected. With a gentle curved back and waterfall skirt, the chair had a softer look to contrast the gold metal corner appliques all around. Th small kidney pillow, to match the accent fabric in the corner skirt, provided just the right amount of support, while the castors added the perfect amount of function to this chair!
Woodbridge Furniture
Atrium Bed
Inspired by late 19th century French provincial originals popular in the Normandy region, this bed was an immediate YES! Never had I wanted a canopy bed so much! This bed felt like such a departure from the standard canopy beds we always see while still remaining accessible and familiar. The metal frame supports a removable upholstered headboard panel, which also offered more function than a standard canopy. This was such a highlight in the Woodbridge showroom--great job, Lauren!!
Noir
Sheila Dining Table
Noir is a showroom that always offers inspirational and visually appealing furniture--and this Market was no different. Introducing the Sheila Dining Table, here is another great example how an ordinary dining table can become a piece of art.
Abbyson
Santino Swivel Armchair
Here is another find that has shown at Market before but I had never seen. While this may look like an ordinary outdoor furniture piece, this is a deep-seated rocker AND swivel chair. Now, maybe Im behind on the times but this was definitely something that caught me off guard. This is another great example of how we can introduce furniture that has a real indoor/outdoor feel. Great job, Abbyson!!
Studio A Home
Cabriolet Media Cabinet
There was more than one thing that caught my eye about this piece--the tambour sliding doors, the long and narrow footprint, even the interior functional drawers. But what was most interesting was the deep charcoal Italian porcelain top surface and the replicated finish detailing at the base. This piece feels like a throwback to the 70s but in a fresh and modern way!
Hickory Chair
Block Cocktail Table
Hickory Chair is known for timeless and elegant pieces and this is no exception! Set on three poetically-placed marble legs with Browned Steel dowels, the asymmetrical, material-driven piece resonates with a contemporary yet timeless aesthetic. The chevron patterned American Walnut top is the perfect surface for serving and entertaining. The base is a Honed Royal White Marble supporting metal uprights with Browned Steel finish.
Four Hands
Ping Pong Table
Its a dining room and ping pong table all in one! How can you now love this?! With so much emphasis of the home and our rethinking what home entertainment looks like, Four Hands did an excellent job of creating this multi-functional piece of art. This beautiful blend of hand-finished Guanacaste wood and metal that’s been aged through a manual, month-long process using natural elements to bring unique character to each piece, really creates a one-of-a-kind piece. The game table includes a removable net that attaches and detaches with built-in magnets, plus 4 wood paddles and 4 balls. Seats up to 10 as a dinner table; designed for 2-4 players. How amazing is this?!
Eichholtz
Chair Novelle
The Novelle chair in Bordeaux Red Velvet is a sumptuous, bold yet sophisticated statement piece, and such a personal favorite! The ombre effect offers any room a more striking but inviting touch. This swivel chair feels modern, hip, but still timeless and fun!
HURTADO
Coral Console
I was honestly shocked that this had not been spotted earlier. But seeing that Hurtado is a stand-alone building, and this piece was tucked in a corner--it comes as no surprise that this piece is our hidden gem of the season! This console table, with its metallic details and wooden surround, is a uniquely luxurious occasional piece that can fit in any design style and aesthetic! With sleek lines and the optional drawer, it feels like a functional piece of art!
Union Home
Kebab Console Table
Playful in form, the Kebab side and cocktail tables make a bold, geometric statement in any living space. Turned, solid wood legs support a solid wood top with a subtle wire brushed finish, to highlight the individual character of the grain. This table caught my eye immediately as I was strolling through the first floor of IHFC. So clever, unique, and intriguing!
Chaddock
Antonia Desk
Debuting his inaugural collection, Benjamin Johnston is a designer who knows what great design means. This four-drawer desk comes with beautiful triangular fluting on its front and can be finished in the back with a myriad of painted finish options. It can also be turned into a vanity table by removing that bottom right drawer, leaving the three top drawers for storage. The top and waterfall legs are made of quartersawn oak and has lovely rounded brass edge pulls for the drawers. It includes a pencil try in center and full-extension hardware for easy access. Love this piece!
Kravet, Lee Jofa, Brunschwig & Fils and Kravet Furniture
Georgica Bar
Here is another great product that was conceived by an interior designer--my favorite types of products! Mabley Handler did an excellent job of combining form and function! With its metal accents and geometric design, this bar cabinet can function as a piece of art when closed. And to make things even better, the interior contrasting finish, the glass shelf, mirrored back, recessed LED lights, and pre-catalyzed shelving makes the interior equally as stunning, while offering maximum function. We could all use this in our homes! ^_^
Sherrill Furniture Company
SW1398 Swivel Chair
Im aware that this may look like another ordinary chair, but this swivel by Sherrill offered an ease and a slightly industrial approach that I havent seen in their collection. With these optional channeling details, this curved arm and back structure offers a modern approach while still keeping its traditional roots. In different fabrics and textures this is a piece that could transition so well into an assorted number of design styles!
Arteriors
Keegan Chair
Although this collection had been shown before, this Keegan Chair felt super fresh. With the traditional design of the high-back, the solid ebony beech wooden frame, and the newly introduced ivory leather, this chair was a stand-out piece. We loved how the leather wrapped the back in a sling-like fashion and pillowed the seat. And of course, how could we not obsess over the intricate stitched details in the front and back!
Uttermost
Boomerang Pendant
This is a piece that is best understood in person. This beauty is actually 30H and is such creates such a statement, when seen. Unlike any other pendant shown in their collection, Uttermost really knocked it out of the park with this one. With its retro-inspired metalwork in rich brass finish surrounding the white linen crafted into an hourglass shape this feels new and familiar all at the same time! To make sense of the function, one large light shines downward while three lights in the top cone illuminate upwards giving soft warmth overall.
Harp & Finial
Swindell Floor Mirror
Who doesnt love a great floor mirror. But finding one that felt original and graphic was such a lovely find! This matte black finish on a metal framed mirror creates a more visually interesting approach to this functional piece. Upon seeing it, it felt more like the gateway into the next horror film, all the while inviting to the senses! This is definitely more picturesque in person. So pretty!
