Here’s what’s new in furniture and homewares over the past month.
Tapware brand Meir and concrete basin brand Nood Co, have collaborated on the new Alchemy collection of coloured concrete and metal taps, available from November. The collection offers 12 considered pairing combinations across three product types, from the light touch of champagne hued metal paired with the palest of pinks, to a sumptuous lustre bronze with a deeper olive statement, each creating a distinct mood. What truly defines this range is the way it feels, as a tactile encounter.
Keep Collections’ new range, Secrets, evokes a sense of late night dinner parties, where guests linger to the early hours. It features sculptural vases and objects and oversized statement serveware in rich berry tones, matte espresso and deep green. This is offset with touches of orange, lavender and bright coral.
