Photography by Paul Wright.
Product: Colonna
Standout: A terra-cotta side table made in Italy nods to art history— namely, the evolution of columns, flutes, and capitals, which the Toronto designer strove to render in a form “both contemporary and compelling for today’s context.” Through Holly Hunt.

Photography by Cualiti Photo Studio.
Product: Onigiri
Standout: The cofounders of Spanish firm Dibloo Estudio have crafted tasteful ottomans in oak plywood and Ultraleather that sport a black elastic band—akin to the seaweed strip wrapping the titular Japanese rice balls—that doubles as a handle. Through Annud.

Product: Flex Tube
Standout: Create your own gallery-esque light art with the cofounders’ 1⁄2-inch-diameter, LED-lit silicone tube—in warm white, warm red, blue, or bright pink (shown)—that can be bent, shaped, or draped any which way. Through Teak New York.

Product: DP1
Standout: Constructivist buildings on piles informed the DA Bureau architects’ kitchen island, with columnar supports clad in glazed, hand-molded ceramic. The cabinetry’s wood veneer was reconstituted from furniture-manufacturing scraps. Through Palaty.
Alexandra Burr and Allen Slamic of AlexAllen Studio

Product: Cane Cluster
Standout: Hand-assembled in AlexAllen Studio’s Brooklyn workshop, the chandelier sprouts a trio of brass-finished steel curves. Surfacing them with flat LED downlights maintains the fixture’s minimalism while emitting a warm glow.

Photography courtesy of Knots Rugs.
Product: Subiksha
Standout: Although the artist is based in Barcelona, Spain, it was her time spent working—and the girls she met—at an NGO that provided the name of the hand-knotted wool, silk, and linen rug, its pattern derived from her abstract calligraphic canvases. Through Knots Rugs.
