Pick of the Week ✨
Castore — a study in visual balance ⚪
Designed by Angelo Mangiarotti , this glass and marble dining table (130cm, via Karakter) creates a striking illusion: a round glass top appears held in place by nothing more than a small marble bowl resting on its surface.
Rounded edges soften the marble's natural weight, while the bowl doubles as a functional piece on its own — or stays put, its reflection tracing another curve across the glass.
Zig Zag Chair — icon in balance ⚡
Designed by Gerrit Thomas Rietveld, the Zig Zag chair remains one of the earliest examples of a cantilevered solid wood chair — four flat wooden planes joined in rhythmic sequence, creating a striking, sculptural sense of instability where there is none.
Radical then. Iconic now.
Domo Lamp — light, reimagined 💡
Originally designed by Joe Colombo, Domo was one of three lamps born from a single core shape — a study in the curvaceous, functional forms Colombo favoured over sharp edges and straight lines.
Colombo designed for real life: flexible, convertible pieces that adapted to the user, not the other way around. His "machines for living" pushed materials and technology to create furniture that still feels futuristic today. Domo is one of his enduring icons.
