Fetching Yet Familiar: Yarn Collective

yarn collective

Stepping into 2026, Yarn Collective is excited to introduce its latest collection, which brings together bold new ideas with the familiar, dependable qualities their work is built on.

They’ve expanded offerings with expressive patterns, innovative constructions, and deeper explorations of color and texture, while also refining the essential plains that designers reach for time and again. The result is a considered mix of the new and the trusted – a toolkit of textiles that broaden creative possibilities without losing sight of what truly works. While their inventory presents versatile staples that can work comfortably across a wide range of interiors, they are also introducing a little of the unexpected, whether that be a sheen where we have previously been matte, or a color explosion of new blues, this collection embodies both the vibrancy and refinement of Yarn Collective.

Introducing Workshop Collection

workshop collection

For over 25 years, clients have sought out award-winning, multidisciplinary design and architecture firm Workshop/APD for its holistic modern residences, characterized by an extraordinary attention to detail and subtle, livable luxury. For its initial Workshop Collection, the firm has applied its considerable expertise in design at every scale to furnishings refined and perfected over the decades to suit a wide range of spaces and uses.

Workshop/APD’s reverence for craftsmanship and materiality are evident in the pieces, which are crafted by trusted partners regularly tapped to bring even its most complex bespoke designs to life. “In all of our work, regardless of typology or scale,” said founding principal Matt Berman “we hope to breathe life into modern design by revealing the hand of the maker. Here, we’ve reimagined classic forms and design elements, exploring material connections, the interplay of positive and negative space, and a soft, organic palette and architectural language. The result is a collection that is both forward-thinking and timeless – we’re less concerned about setting or following trends than creating something beautiful, functional, and enduring.” Offered in an array of standard finishes and fabrics as well as COM/COL options, many pieces may also be customized in collaboration with Workshop Collection’s product experts.

Each piece – formed from quartz, brass, and glass – acts as a bridge between celestial imagination and human craft.

The Spirit of the Renaissance: The Galileo Collection by Pierre Augustin Rose

the galileo collection – pierre augustin rose

The Galileo Collection by Pierre Augustin Rose unfolds a language of fluid curves and organic gestures, where each piece appears as if drawn in a single continuous motion. At the heart of this visual vocabulary lies the woven wood backrest, a detail both sculptural and poetic that defines the identity of the line. Inspired by the intricate, multi-dimension inventions of Renaissance mastermind Galileo.

A Bit of Pixie Dust: Collection Particuliere at Milan Design Week

Pixie Dust by Collection Particuliere

Collection Particulière returned to Milan Design Week 2025 with VELOURIA, the title taken from American rock band, Pixies (Bossanova, 1990).
No point in looking for it in the dictionary, it isn’t there.

VELOURIA is a resonance, an intuition, a touch. Or perhaps it’s a name? Imagine her, an erudite, demanding, passionate woman. A collector of emotions, desires, textures. She enthuses about the shade of a wood, the way a fabric falls, the subtility of a patina. She loves stories, those told to her and those she invents. She likes hot and cold, velvet, of course, but also mahogany, walnut, ceramics and bronze. Her tastes are constantly developing.

You won’t meet VELOURIA, but you’ll feel her presence everywhere – in the way the space is organized, in the way the pieces of furniture are presented and dialogue with each other. And sometimes in the way they oppose each other.

Cultivating Terrain: The SYLVATICA Collection by ERDEN

As the farm has expanded in scale and spirit, so too has ERDEN’s creative vocabulary, rooted in the rhythms of the land, and with it, a name: Sylvatica. Sylvatica continues the dialogue begun with Terra, drawing from the varied environs ERDEN calls home. Here, form emerges not from observation alone, but from immersion and impressions shaped by lived terrain. It reflects a deepening understanding of cultivation as a discipline, and the ordering that underlies all living systems.

Well Placed: XXV Years of Alexander Lamont

alexander lamont

At R HUGHES, we’ve long admired Alexander Lamont for the poetic rigor he brings to furniture, lighting, and objects. Now, as Alexander Lamont marks 25 years of remarkable craftsmanship, we’re honored to present XXV — a collection that distills the studio’s singular vision into a series of striking new works.

XXV feels like a quiet triumph: forms that are monumental yet refined, with every surface shaped by the hands of artisans who have mastered age-old techniques. In materials like parchment, shagreen, and vibrantly hued straw, the pieces echo architectural fragments — primal, sculptural, and deeply tactile. There’s a tension in the work that is uniquely Lamont: the ancient and the urbane coexisting with quiet intensity.

Rooted in the myths and materiality of ancient Britain, XXV reminds us that every object is a continuation of history — shaped by time, nature, and human touch. We invite you to explore this milestone collection, and to witness the depth of care, vision, and soul that continues to define Alexander Lamont after a quarter-century of excellence.

Erden: A Symphony of Texture

In 2021, Erden acquired 22 acres of pasture and woodland in rural Illinois, which has since expanded to 92 acres, along with a growing herd of alpacas. Inspired by the patterns and themes found there, Terra – Erden’s fourth collection – explores the communion between man and earth, with raised textures, linear structures, and patterned forms created in a careful balance of the organic and orchestrated. To promote the launch and provide contact for the designs, Brian Erden enlisted his friend and design colleague Jack Andrews, partner of the renowned furniture and lighting collection Caste, to lend his urban sanctuary in the heart of Chicago as the backdrop for Terra’s debut. This collaboration beautifully illustrates how the gravitational force bringing man to the earth is relevant even in the most urban environments.

Between Erden’s rugs with intersecting lines of metal inlay and natural alpacas, playful suri and soumak edges…each woven brings us closer to bringing nature inside.

R HUGHES Welcomes Chaaban Designs

Brian Chaaban, a Los Angeles native, began his design journey in 2016, curating premium bronzewares and home furnishings under his label, “CHAABAN DESIGNS.” Inspired by nature, his work reflects organic forms and intricate details, drawing from his deep connection to the outdoors.

Initially focused on lost wax-casting bronze, Brian’s collection now includes brass, cast glass, marble, upholstery, and lighting, showcasing his evolving versatility. His influences include Paul Evans, Harry Balmer, and Barbara Hepworth, blending sculpture with functionality in each piece he creates.

“I like to think that juxtaposing forms of beauty is at the heart of Chaaban Designs.

My work is all handmade in Los Angeles and with every piece made to order, I can offer custom sizes, finishes and commissions on request, ” says Brian Chaaban.
