5 Fresh Furniture Designs for 2016
The latest and greatest furniture, now available at Toronto design stores
SHOW YOU THE DOOR
Blu Interni’s doorways transform the ordinary room barrier into a striking, richly textured canvas. Part of the Italian manufacturer’s B-Line collection of designs that close flush to the wall, this Pietra finish mimics the rugged look of stone. From $3550, at Italian Art Interior, 124 Laird Dr italianartinterior.com
BOOM BOX
The genius Cube side table–slash-stereo system by La Boite Concept is fully tuned into modern listening habits. Rest your laptop on the top shelf, or DJ wirelessly from a smartphone. Six speakers direct crisp audio to every corner of a room. $1795, at Stylegarage
TOP-TIER LADDER
Designed by Toronto’s MSDS Studio for Assembly, a concept collection envisioned in collaboration with industry breakouts, EQ3’s Rack props up against bathroom walls to hold towels and robes. It’s inspired by a design featured in the 1953 film Tokyo Story. Available in February. $300, at EQ3
SOLAR ECLIPSE
Named after Helios, the Greek sun god, Workstead’s table lamp casts a heavenly glow. A rotating brass dish sits opposite the dimmable light’s bare bulb to act as a deflector. Choose from Carrara, green marble and travertine bases. $2315, at Hollace Cluny
ME IN THE BENZ
Newly available at Klaus, Rolf Benz’s made-in-Deutschland seating is as well-engineered as German sports cars. The deep, über-comfortable Cara sofa is fully customizable, with hundreds of fabric and leg combinations to choose from. From $10,665, at Klaus
