Simple and sleek: Four beautiful designs for the home that do more with less

From upholstery to bronzed brass, these makers explore a range of elements in their designs, creating a unique story for each.

These items would bring a sophisticated flourish to any living room, through their mixture of luxurious textures and materials.

MOODLUM COLLECTION

A finalist in the category of furniture design for this year’s Design Files Design Awards, the Moodlum collection by Dean Norton features the Mood Coffee – a sculptural table with a moulded steel body.

The piece also features recessed metallic smoke-grey mirror top and contrasting, curved matt white base.

SEDIS CHAIR

Inspired by the art deco era, the Sedis Chair collection by Anaca Studio balances sculptural curves with strong, minimalist lines.

The range is offered via Stylecraft in six sizes, from low stool to chair and bar stools, with or without backs.

WALL STACK 3

Designed by Volker Haug Studio, as part of their newly launched Pyramid Scheme collection, the Wall Stack 3 features tiered conical forms atop a slender base.

Providing ambient lighting, the design comes in polished or bronzed brass.

WILFRED SOFA

Relaxed and inviting, the Wilfred Sofa by Jardan welcomes you with open arms.

Blending traditional craftsmanship with contemporary design, the sofa features a subtle timber frame, loose upholstered cushions, and fabric-slung arms mimicking fallen tulips.
