Homeware To Lift A Room
Great design has the power to shape the way we live. Fill rooms with inspiring objects for inspired results.
Environment is a determining factor in our overall mood; rooms devoid of inspiring objects rarely yield inspired results. From wall art to rugs, lamps, and even incense, the right homeware and decoration affects first and foremost the aesthetic of a room, but also the moods that it provokes and the life that is lived within it. As such, choosing the right pieces holds great importance.
Spanning coffee table books on Bottega Veneta to organically shaped diffusers and shaggy cushions, the following homeware guide invites people to take a minute, lifts the mood, and provides the comfort that only great design can.

With contributions from the likes of Tim Blanks and Daphne Merkin, Rizzoli’s Bottega Veneta: Art of Collaboration is presented by Tomas Maier, who served as the house’s creative director from 2001 to 2018.

No thing in a home is too small or functional to be exempt from the need for beauty. This idea is proven by Dolce & Gabbana’s bold graphic take on Bialetti’s universally loved moka pot. Whether it’s in use every morning or simply takes pride of place on a shelf in the kitchen, this piece is worthy of space.

Fazeek’s bright and playful takes on everyday kitchen items epitomizes the idea that design touches everything in a home. From cutlery to glassware, the Melbourne-based brand imbues all of its designs with pastel hues and whimsical shapes.
Featured In This Image: Trudon candle.
Dating back to 1643, French brand Trudon is one of the world’s oldest and most respected candlemakers. Each hand-poured candle offers rich and long-lasting scents; in this case, a woody and complex base of vetiver, sandalwood, amber, and patchouli makes way for top notes of cardamom, incense, orange, and coriander. Seasonally relevant but timeless in nature, the Gloria candle is ideal for winter.

Aromatherapy is a long-researched mood-changer, and Vitruvi’s diffusers offer the benefits in a beautiful package. While many diffusers opt for cutting-edge, modern design cues, Vitruvi looks to organic shapes and neutral palettes so that its diffusers settle calmingly into any space.

While everything that carries the Mush Studios name is a standout by design, the New York label’s shaggy cushions act as particular highlights. Featuring the signature swirling colors that epitomize the rest of the collection, the Dandi cushion goes a step further with a textured alpaca wool case.

Once a regular fixture in homes, tabletop lighters have become almost extinct now. Edie Parker’s colorful combination of an ashtray and tabletop lighter fights to keep the design alive, offering retro style in spades.
Featured In This Image: Nordic Knots rug.
Rugs are some of the best examples of items that are both practical and beautiful. Nordic Knots’s understated Scandi design language makes for rugs that settle effortlessly into any room while never being meek. The Monolith 01 rug features an eye-catching woven composition, which brings pop to the neutral color palette.
