The Ava Chair is a handcrafted accent chair, expertly made in the USA by Cisco Home. The curved back and wood plinth base add both comfort and style to any room. The chairs are shown in Bonn Birch with a sealed Walnut exposed wood base.

I love the look of this chair and how comfortable it is. With the tight back / tight seat offering, it makes it easy to add fun accent pillows or a cozy throw blanket. Also, the exposed wood on the base of the chair adds an extra detail that makes the chair stand out. It is a wonderful option to include in any design since it can look more traditional or contemporary depending on the fabric and wood finish selections.

The Alternatives Sectional by Burton James is my favorite find this month. The pairing of a loveseat and “cuddle pod” creates such a fun, unique overall shape! Burton James does a nice job of combining softness with support, and that combination makes this sectional a real pleasure to relax on.

Burton James’ Alternatives program allows designers to create the perfect piece that complements their vision and fulfills their client’s need for comfort, function, and stylish looks. The designer chooses the piece’s overall style, sizing, arms/base shape, cushion “fills,” and decorative accents. This allows the designer to call the shots rather than having to use a standard furniture piece that might limit their vision and cause unwanted workarounds.

Burton James recently updated their fabric selection, and it’s gorgeous! A perfect combination of beauty and durability. Of course, COM is an option as well.

The Buoy Double Cone Pendant by BOMMA is my favorite find. The collection was designed by Václav Mlynář, Creative Director of BOMMA. The fixture features an unusual light rod that runs through the entire core formed by a monumental hand-blown glass body.

When seeing this fixture in person, one is taken by the sheer size of the glass. The mastery to create hand blown glass at this scale is beautiful. The simplicity of the design with the ombre of a soft white color is understated and impactful. The method of using a sandblasted light core perfectly distributes the light throughout the entire glass form.

The Roxy Swivel-Tilt Tub Chair by Thayer Coggin is a contemporary creation with a timeless design. Initially designed in 1965 by Milo Baughman, the Roxy swivel-tilt chair is a modern classic. Featuring wood, metal, or upholstered base options, button tufting, and a unique swivel tilt mechanism, Roxy is as timeless as it is comfortable.

Not only is the Roxy swivel-tilt chair very comfortable, it is also the perfect scale for spaces needing a slightly smaller swivel chair without compromising on comfort for people of any height. They are perfect to pair up at the end of a bed, or can easily be added to any space as an accent chair.

The Ardesia Circular LED Pendant by Hubbardton Forge is my favorite find.

Mixed materials are not only on-trend, but show both the organic nature of slate from a Vermont quarry and the metalwork of skilled Vermont artisans. Illuminated by a LED light-guide platform, the Ardesia is the apex of where technology meets nature. A natural element, slate has slight variations in size, color and texture. Also available as a large, linear pendant.

The Ardesia lends itself to a modern mountain luxe aesthetic so loved by our area designers. The even distribution of light across a textural element is unique and because Hubbardton allows for customization I have seen this fabricated using both a white alabaster and the black slate. 

As a company, Hubbardton Forge has a strong ethos of sustainability. Working with local artisans and providers their materials and technology are sourced in the US. For fixtures that utilize an integrated LED light source, they can be replaced without disposing of the entire fixture, not typical of many manufacturers.

The Theo Occasional Chair by Verellen is bench-crafted with a sustainably harvested hardwood frame. A firm, yet comfortable, tight seat available in a stationary club chair or as a swivel! Expert craftsmanship goes into every aspect of this exquisite piece. This generous chair abounds with an eco-elegant design that can only be described as the perfect fusion between Belgian and American traditions.

I love how comfortable this chair is and the way my arms relax on the thoughtful curves. The fabric we have the chair shown in is super cozy as well.

Designed by Rick Lee, the bold and whimsical Playing Hooky Sectional by Thayer Coggin features eighteen modular units that can be combined to create a customized sectional sofa to fit any space. The collection takes its name from the design silhouette of the back support which resembles a curved hook when the sections are combined. Versatile yet playful, Playing Hooky is a collection that’s dedicated to comfort by offering generous seating proportions and exquisite spring down cushioning.

Playing Hooky offers the perfect balance between style and comfort. The collection is incredibly tailored but still has a very comfortable Spring Down seat and plush Trillium back. I love the way you see the peek-a- boo wood detail in the front and have the upholstered to-the-ground arm and back. The 404 Chaise is the perfect cuddle pod.

The Selene 65 Pendant by Fine Art Handcrafted Lighting is a sculptural linear pendant inspired by the Greek goddess of the moon, Selene. It features hand cast glass in Full Moon White & New Moon Clear.

I love the attention to where light is placed along this fixture; integrated LED illuminating the glass discs and the canopy light highlighting the uncompromising craftsmanship of the metal finish. The design itself can play in both a traditional or modern aesthetic. It is a conversation piece and stands out to me for that reason.
