Things to Covet- March 2025

Objects to add a unique sense of playfulness and personality to your space

1. Deneb by Guch Design

Deneb evokes the perfection of seashells and the divine proportion, merging nature and sacred geometry in its design. Each curve invites contemplation, creating a space where the timeless beauty of the sea comes to life, offering serenity and balance with every use.

2. Stone rug by Illulian

Designed by Japanese designer Naoto Fukasawa, the Stone rug draws inspiration from the arrangement of stones – whether randomly stacked or carefully placed. Reflecting the dual craftsmanship of nature and artisans, the rug features irregular geometries and soft tones contrasted by darker joints, evoking the look of a paved road.

3. 70s Ceramics at HK Living

Add a touch of retro to your contemporary space with a selection of sustainably sourced and playful ceramics. These wide range of ceramics have become true collectables – and from floor jugs to butter dishes, there’s a wide selection to jazz up your home. Available at Urban Nest.  

4. Islas by Draw Studio for NEUTRA

This table has a sharp, light top, characterised by fluid curves and taut arches, which contrast with a monolithic base made of solid marble and expertly handcrafted metal wedges. Proposed in a high-quality Cipollino misto marble version and metal legs with a hand-polished and burnished brass finish, Isla can be customised on request with different marble variants, thus adapting to specific stylistic and design requirements.

5. Anemos by Pedrali

Anemos is the new table designed by Pio & Tito Toso, characterised by simple and architectural shapes designed to enhance the materiality of concrete, giving it a new expressive style. A versatile, universal table that perfectly fits indoor and outdoor environments, its distinctive feature is the base, composed of two separate concrete shells secured to the top. Like a structural membrane, these elements free themselves from their image of intrinsic weight and, through a double curvature, take on a flexible and sinuous shape.
