4 Furniture Studio Faves from AD Home Design Show
Janet Ramin - Whenever I visit the Architectural Digest Home Design Show, I make a beeline for the furniture displays. The AD show has everything a home design addict would love: artwork, furniture, lighting, tabletop displays, kitchen, and bath – so much so that it can be overwhelming. But furniture is the heart of every room, so I love to check out the latest furniture lines from the big, established firms to the new work from the smaller furniture studios.
Just as bold bright colors were the top trends in fashion, brilliant colors were also seen in many furniture designs. The cabinet on a stand – seen above - from Bart Niswonger is a perfect example with its red-hot and yellow colors and floating yellow-green flowers. Made of ash, cherry, and cast urethane, the cabinet provides that pop of color and touch of unexpectedness to any interior. Another whimsical piece is the ball side table. Floating orange urethane tops the table as red balls pop out from its sides.
