In Milan, Poltrona Frau introduced the GranTorino upholstery collection designed by Jean-Marie Massaud . Inspired by the world of saddlery, this modular sofa includes a combination of fabric with sleek, hand-cut, hand-shaped Saddle Leather. The leather molds the lines and structure of the seat, including the upper part of the backrest as well as the armrests and sides. My favorite aspect of this series is the leather cover the folds over and is fastened with steel rivets. The large box-like structure actually opens up and acts as storage, and functions as a table or oversized armrest when closed

The Leather Collection by Maarten De Ceulaer for Nilufar is a collection of artistic, sculptural storage pieces that reflect the designer’s great passion for traveling and exploring the world. Like totems to travel, these towers and piles of suitcases in various leathers were created in collaboration with one of the most renowned leather artisans in Belgium, Ralph Baggaley. Each suitcase looks to be intricately and carefully made, tailored to reflect the luxurious and sophisticated of all nomads. In the flexible Chest of Suitcases , every drawer can be positioned to any direction, so the chest can be placed against a wall or in the middle of a room, so that the drawers can open from all sides. The Pile of Suitcases , which was the first piece in the collection, was thoughtfully assembled to make sure each section housed a particular type of garment.

ACME Furniture uses a large amount of products from Malaysian factories. Some other factories provide additional features and material, including those located in Brazil, China, Taiwan and Vietnam. Due to the long term relationship ACME has with the different factories, it is possible for ACME to receive a significant discount on the furniture, and this is reflected in the price and the consumer is able to save a good amount of money by buying ACME Furniture, instead of going with a different brand.

A large supply of mattresses are available, California King bedrooms and sets give the largest available size of mattress and bed style, while ACME Furniture also sells Eastern King bedrooms, queen size bedroom sets, twin bedroom sets, bunk and day beds and full size bedrooms. This way, no matter the size and no matter the overall style, it is all found right here at ACME Furniture, so there is really no reason to look anywhere else.

New York City-based textiles and design company, ZAK+FOX  is headed by Zak Profera, with help from his trusty Shiba Inu, Shinji. The textile collection, composed of 10 designs, is defined by an aesthetic that is warm, modern, and eclectic. His work draws influence from his early studies of conceptual art at the San Francisco Art Institute, as well as his recent international treks — from the outskirts of Istanbul in search of vintage finds, to the depths of the Black Forest for an open-air expedition. As for “Fox,” he says, “I loved the idea of a boy and his dog traversing the globe, unearthing ancient treasures.” In this week’s Friday Five , we can see where the pair finds inspiration

Sometimes I geek out over more than one piece of furniture in a collection, as is the case with Miniforms , which has just been added to the Leif Petersen showroom in High Point. I pretty much love everything in the entire collection. I won’t be going to the October High Point Market this year, but you can bet that this would be at the top of my list of must-sees.

Modern design has spread through home furnishings over time and over the last few years, planters are finally getting their dues. Landscape designer Shannon Lester started Steel Life and has come out with a line of bold and bright planters as part of  The Desert Collection . The pieces are individually made using salvaged and upcycled metal. The Shallow Root Vessel (first image also) eliminates the need for lots of soil and water due to its shallow depth, making it perfect for succulents. I love that you don’t have to use them exclusively as planters – the various-sized Mod Dish designs ( Mezzo Mod Dish above) are a great dish to hold fruit or any of your collections.
