Autumn tends to feel like a fresh start, with a bit of briskness in the air a sense of reprieve from the tumult of summer. It can be a great time to make some changes around the house, mixing warmer tones into your interior, and introducing one or two impactful pieces to bring renewed life to the space. We’ve selected a few high-impact designs that are sure to bring a shine to the home and put a bit of bounce in your step as we stride back into some semblance of routine…
The Papillon Screen makes a strong impact that will continue to captivate as the years roll on. Dichroic glass brings a sense of mutability to the design, filtering and reflecting light in an ever-changing opalescent spectrum of colours. It’s a functional piece that helps to define space in an open plan or create a strong focal point.
Our Lily is a materially rich coffee table with a nature-inspired form. A top of White Onyx ripples out over a base of polished bronze, creating a beautiful contrast between soft, organic stone and hand-hewn metallic form. It’s another design that truly comes alive in the light as it seeps through the Onyx to expose hidden patterns within.
The Cloud Mirror has an irregular, slightly off-kilter shape to it, which sings in our colourful Butterfly finishes. It’s got a distinctly contemporary feel to it, with crisp edges and a clean look. It’s also very effective in its Floor-Length format, which stretches out to longer and leaner proportions.
Our Berlin Easy Chair makes for a clean-cut and categorically cool interior addition. The water-cut steel frame set against a sweeping swathe of bridle leather creates a contemporary look with an inviting quality to it. The oak bark tanned leather will develop its own patina with enjoyment but will never lose its enduring strength, leaving you with a piece to be kept and savoured for generations.
Sleek lines and crisp finishes bely the complexity behind this design, with handcrafted cabinetry hidden within the carefully calibrated form. The Odessa Cabinet is inspired by the work of Russian Constructivist artists who harnessed geometric shapes to create a sense of dynamism and modernity. It wears its artistic origins on its sleeve, with slashes of metallic light radiating energy out into its environment.
Avalon is a sculptural rectangular dining table that can be made on an entirely bespoke basis. We can tailor both the dimensions and the finishes to your taste, casting flames across the surfaces of its bronze bases to produce a unique patina. We can even cap them with hand-polished bronze plates which catch the eye through a crystalline glass top. No matter the finish, it’s a highly impactful and distinctive dining table that’s sure to elevate your next dinner party.
The Lily Cocktail Table is a small but mighty impact piece. It delivers a touch of colour with a tinted Venetian glass top – or an arresting display of pattern with a rich marble like Rosso Luana Verde. To create an artful display, arrange a few Lilies in a cluster of colours. They can then be separated and dotted around the space to suit your needs, thanks to their light composition and compact footprint. They’re the perfect companions for a blustery night spent reading with a glass of something warming perched at your side.
