Ravine Bench by Aderyn Studio
Novato-based designers and life partners Phil Vaughn and Chelsea Brown aim to create furniture which can be kept for a lifetime — and handed down — using locally-sourced materials and natural finishes in a soon-to-be solar-powered shop. Hand-made from an elm wood base in Shou Sugi Ban finish, and featuring a hand-carved texture and brass metal banding detail in bronze finish, this bench is a keeper. To the trade at hewnsf.com.
Tide by Mia Cullin for FilzFelt
Inspired by the water surrounding her home in Stockholm, Mia Cullin brings the ocean waves inside. Tide playfully divides space, while softening sound. Made from wool felt — a durable, inherently flame retardant fabric with thermal and acoustic properties, made from renewable and 100% biodegradable natural animal fibers whose origins date back thousands of years — these panels can be hung in continuous rows or stacked. Inquire at filzfelt.com.
Adeline Sofa from GUILD by LMI
This versatile piece can sit against a wall or float in the middle of a room or by a window. Eschewing disposable culture, interiors and furniture designer Lane McNab, created this sofa, and other pieces in the GUILD by LMI collection, with comfort and sustainability in mind. Artisan-made with sustainably-sourced materials, almost all production is by local craftspeople in the San Francisco Bay Area. To the trade at Sloan Miyasato, sloanm.com
Rocky Tabloa Side Table by Tronk Design
Whether solo or grouped, this piece takes centerstage as an imaginatively-named, visually appealing study of contrasts. The natural stone base is strong and earthy, while with matte black powder-coated steel top looks delicate and airy. Made by local Ohio craftsmen and fabricators. Starts at $399 at Tronk Design.
Uni Side Table by Jamie Young Co.
Designed by the California-based couple, Jamie Young Jeter and David Jeter — whose inspiration comes from their love of “art, architecture and adventure” — this eye-catching piece is artisan-crafted of fiberglas and hand-finished in India. Retails for $552 at jamieyoung.com.
IOI Table by GamFratesi
Stine Gam and Enrico Fratesi reimagine their geometric Art Deco piece with the warm tactility of a rounded edge top made from travertine in rippled beige, sourced in Italy. The structure of the table legs — twin metal tubes connected a sphere of brass — render the letters I-O-I three-dimensionally. Available as a side table (shown) or a coffee table starting at $1,299 at gubi.com or dwr.com.
Willy Faux Travertine Coffee Table by Leanne Ford
Elegantly earthy, this coffee table combines the beauty of flawlessly-replicated travertine markings with brawn of FSC®-certified engineered wood substrate from responsibly managed forests and non-porous, lightweight resin. Retails for $1,299 at Crate & Barrel.
Black Mamba Coffee Table by OSO Creations
Like its serpentine namesake, this striking piece is not as it appears on the surface: cast in blackened concrete, the table top is cast into a wooden mold, giving the concrete a heavily wood-grained texture. The truncated conical base is also cast in a blackened concrete taken to a high polish. Hand-crafted in Brooklyn by sculptor Eric Weil and his team. To the trade at hewnsf.com.
Wells Renew Vegan Leather 2-Piece Chaise Sectional Sofa
The only thing this handsome sectional off-gases is a rustic-modern vibe. Made from a leather alternative derived from sand, and featuring a slim frame from FSC®-certified engineered hardwood—supported by iron legs and tailored with topstitching and French seams on the arms—this investment piece checks off all the boxes: scratch- and UV-resistant, non-reactive, easy to clean and long-lasting.Photo credit: Crate & Barrel
