Modern Mastery

Design thinking at the source

Il Fanale enlisted a host of product designers to create new works in lighting; among them is Cristina Crestino who found inspiration in the shapes and craftsmanship of the iconic Savarin cake molds for her aptly named collection Babette.

Koncept adds Rise to its modernist Z-bar Pendant collection, featuring light bars that rotate on the top and bottom tiers of each square or rectangular shaped metal frame, which are suitable for both residential and hospitality design applications.

Metal, wood, and a stone finish mix to modern perfection courtesy of Phillips Collection, when an inverted pyramid shape translates to an almost floating accent table top, in juxtaposition with the base’s open frame, which is available in two heights.

Furniture designer Sergio Bicego devised a flexible seating system with correlating occasional tables, naming the new collection for Saba Italia Rendezvous with today’s consumers in mind, be they at home or in commercial settings.

A thoroughly modern color palette in the Cadence collection of Crypton Home® fabric for Thibaut Fine Furniture actually consists of six small-scale patterns and textures that deceive the eye, so raspberry may reflect to coral, and aqua mutes from blue to grey.

Furniture designer and maker Daniel Lefkowitz of 9 & 19 makes his High Point Market debut with a range of occasional items like the Sloop chair, named for the rope used to weave the seat, sourced from the sailing industry.
