Magellan | KUZCO LIGHTING This statement piece was a multiple award-winner this year, including a Red Dot Best of the Best in lighting design, and Most Innovative Product of the Year at LightFair, and deservedly so. A dramatic focal point for any large interior, multiple spun-aluminum shades surround a hollow core in a static orbit. Indirect light is cast onto the shade interiors, creating an even, ambient glow, and each shade is an individual light source that can be mixed or exchanged. www.kuzcolighting.com
Lily | EUREKA This ceiling suspended luminaire has a flexible 180° vertical pivot and 350° rotation around the vertical axis, controlled by a friction hinge ensuring the selected angle is maintained without slipping. Lambertian-type diffusion is delivered using an optical grade translucid acrylic lens and internal reflector, with outputs of 900 or 1,200 lumens. The organic shape is finished with architectural grade matte fine textured paint in one of five standard colours, and comes with an adjustable single cable suspension, but also has canopy mounting or track system options. www.eurekalighting.com
Hollowcore | LUMINIS This reinterpretation of the traditional high bay pendant shape comes with a unique circular LED light engine and open centre concept and is available with either a high-efficiency diffuser or aluminum reflector. The pendant model features either an elegantly sculpted tripod interior stem or clean cable mounting. An independently controlled uplight component is available to provide additional upward illumination or to highlight ceilings. www.hollowcore.luminis.com

the goods Halo | VALERIE OBJECTS Palomar | FOSCARINI Ludovica and Roberto Palomba’s interconnecting design brings to mind a chic telescope: the upper metal ferrule acts as a traditional illuminator projecting intense upwards lighting, while the two translucent compartments at the bottom bring diffused ambiance lighting downwards to seating level. www.foscarini.com
Designed by Brussels-based Maarten De Ceulaer, this collection is composed of a half circular rounded element of glass and a rounded metal base. Light travels through the glass invisibly and only illuminates the sandblasted rounded edge, creating a glowing halo effect that seems to float in space. Available in a range of typologies, including a table, wall, floor and suspension lamp; all in black aluminium and brass. www.valerie-objects.com
Coordinates | FLOS This dramatic lighting collection, originally designed by Michael Anastassiades for New York’s Four Seasons restaurant, features a series of interlocking linear LED luminaires inspired by the mathematical precision of the Cartesian grid. Illuminated and expanded to three dimensions, the luminaire comes in an array of set configurations, including four suspended chandeliers of different sizes and three ceiling-mounted luminaires, and also features a repeatable module that can be suspended or ceiling-mounted, ideally suited to impressive, large-scale installations. www.flos.com
Y | KARMAN This wall mounted fixture designed by Lennart, Edmondo Testaguzza and Matteo Ugolini for the always-irreverent Italian lighting brand Karman is intended for “classy contract environments,” although they admit it is versatile enough to go anywhere someone may want three black aluminum lines quietly watching over them. www.flos.com 8 DESIGN SOURCE GUIDE 2021

Peggy | MODO LUCE Studio BMB Progetti clearly have a love for basic archetypal shapes — in this case the cone, sphere and disc — and their strict adherence to the rigorous lines and dimensions of their combination are admirable. Available in metal pendant or ceiling versions enhanced by a wide range of colours, there is also a fabric option that turns the disc into a functional element that helps reduce sound reverberation. www.modoluce.com
Keglen | LOUIS POULSEN Born out of a successful collaborating with BIG Ideas (Bjarke Ingels Group’s product division) on the Tirpitz Pendant, created for the Tirpitz Museum in Blåvand, Denmark, this new lamp series was launched with four pendants as the key pieces. Exceedingly simple in design, the diffusion of light is created using a curved, organically shaped glass insert which is built into and adapted to each version of the shade, available in black or white. www.louispoulsen.com
Vollmond | GANTRI
Jefferson | LODES This Venice-based lighting brand was originally known as Studio Italia Design, and to coincide with the rebrand the company has introduced three new lines, the most notable being the Jefferson suspension lamp. Designed by Luca Nichetto in celebration of the company’s 70th anniversary, this reinterpretation of a vortex pattern typical of Bohemian crystal is created through a special pressing technique that imprints details on the crystal surface. Standard sizes include the mini, which consists of two elliptical crystal diffusers joined on the black chrome frame so that when lit, the undulating pattern on the crystal bodies appear to spin. www.lodes.com
Cologne-based industrial designer Peter Otto Vosding drew inspiration for this table lamp from the “unique silhouette cast by a full moon rising over the German Alps” (hence the name: German for “full moon”) and the result is clean and simple: a spherical, exposed diffuser casts a warm glow while supported by a crescent base available in three colours. www.gantri.com

From understated to overblown, there is a piece of furniture to match the moody twists and turns of this crazy year.
BOMBOM Collection | ROCHE BOBOIS To celebrate the company’s 60th anniversary, Roche Bobois tapped Lisbon-based Joana Vasconcelos to design a line of seating and decorative accessories as the flagship collection of the year. The sofas are clearly the centrepieces: fluid, organic shapes can be reconfigured at will, and a colour scheme of tart, deep shades outlined by black stripes makes one feel they’d be lounging in a field of liquorice allsorts. www.roche-bobois.com
Captain’s Tables | HAMILTON HOLMES This simple yet solid coffee table group is both three-legged and three-materialled: a course grained wooden frame, with a version where the legs are hand painted in a spiral form; a marble top which has recently evolved to include a bullnose edge detail; and hand-woven Danish Cord shelf, all speak to the Hamilton, Ont.-based furniture maker’s love of texture in scalable and contemporary design. www.hamiltonholmes.com

Bell Chair | MAGIS It may look like other stacking chairs, but the real story here is a Konstantin Grcic-designed monobloc chair made entirely from recycled polypropylene obtained from waste generated by Magis’ own furniture production and from the local car industry. The patented material excludes almost all “virgin or new” materials and can be fully recycled after use, making the chair an almost closed material cycle. At just 2.7 kilograms, the chair is 1½ kilos lighter than average plastic chairs, plus Magis has developed a reusable delivery pallet, which can stack up to 24 chairs, all testaments to less material use and waste. www.bell-chair.com
Spalla Bar Stool | STUDIO MUNGE Inspired by the soft curve of a shoulder drop, this stool was originally developed with a metal base for Michelin-starred chef Andrew Carmellini’s Westlight at The William Vale in Brooklyn, then refined multiple times before reaching its final development stage in 2020. Contract grade and available in a variety of colours, with and without a back, Spalla is made in Canada and can be spotted in restaurants including the recently opened Amal Toronto. www.studiomunge.com
Chester Line | POLTRONA FRAU Among the numerous new products in the 2020 Poltrona Frau collection are a couple additions to the large Chester Line family in the form of twoseater curved sofas in versions with or without armrests. A classic since Renzo Frau presented it in 1912, the new interpretations are deconstructed and multiplied, becoming a genuine system of modular sofas with various elements: chaise lounge and armchair, pouf and two corner sofas. The two curved sofas now expand the number of possible combinations. www.poltronafrau.com
Cape Chair | NEA STUDIO Designed by Nina Edward Anker, this chair is part of the Arctic Line, influenced by Anker’s years of living in Norway where she was inspired by organic forms found in the ice and snow. Named for the double-curved shape of its back, a single front leg is countered by a cape-like back. Available in both wood and 3D-printed recycled plastic powder versions. www.neastudio.com DESIGN SOURCE GUIDE 2021 11

Crafted from a powder coated steel frame and matching polypropylene seat and backrest, and available in 14 colour finishes with an optional upholstered seat cushion. www.sandlerseating.com
Archè | IMPERFETTOLAB Named after the Greek word for “origin” and designed by Verter Turroni for the 2020 Limited edition line, this dramatic new fibreglass armchair is, like almost everything in Imperfettolab’s catalogue, a statement piece par exellence. www.imperfettolab.com
Blend | STELLAR WORKS This Shanghai-based furniture brand unveiled its first collaboration with heavyweight studio Nendo on three distinctive collections this year: Blend, a threelegged bar stool; Frame, a steel frame system; and Kite (shown), a compact armchair designed for particularly narrow commercial and hospitality spaces such as corridors, elevator lobbies, and entrances. These spaces normally mean eliminating a chair’s backrest, but here the backrest is the star and leaning is the implied movement of the user. www.stellarworks.com

together In a fatigued world where people are looking for nurturing and comfort, paint companies have presented colour palettes that turn the home into a big hug.
Aegean Teal | BENJAMIN MOORE This blue-green shade is the 2021 Colour of the Year and according to the company began in the kitchen, where home-life is centred. “The colours we surround ourselves with can have a powerful impact on our emotions and well-being,” said Andrea Magno, Director of Colour Marketing & Development. “Aegean Teal and the corresponding Colour Trends 2021 palette express a welcoming, lived-in quality that celebrates the connections and real moments that take place within the home.” www.benjaminmoore.ca
Be Well | DULUX
2021 Colours of the Year | VALSPAR
“Even before the pandemic hit, Canadians were longing for more simplicity and restfulness after decades of overstimulation and overconsumption,” said Mitsu Dhawan, PPG marketing manager, Dulux Paints by PPG. “The coronavirus strengthened consumers’ cravings for a slowed-down lifestyle, where human connection and mental and physical well-being are priorities.” The Be Well collection features three main hues infused with soft, nostalgic neutrals: Transcend, a mid-tone sandy brown; Big Cypress (shown), a shaded ginger with persimmon undertones; and Misty Aqua, a watercolour cerulean blue.www.ppgpaints.com
For Valspar, it is not one but 12 “livable shades” that represent 2021, blending “home improvement with self-improvement,” says the company. “Our homes have become offices, entertainment centres and classrooms,” said Sue Kim, Valspar Colour Marketing Manager. “These lifestyle changes coupled with a surge in DIY home activity helped guide our selection of a range of colours that can not only transform your space but also elevate your mood.” www.valsparpaint.ca

Ready to Roll (RTR) | PREMIER 2021 Colour Trends | FARROW & BALL This paint brand sees the year ahead in four hue groups shaped by the new needs of the home: Rich and Warm; Clean and Timeless Blues; Natural Greens (shown); and Earth Colours, as identified by Colour Curator Joa Studholme, who sees a move away from dark charcoals and blues and towards the warmer colours of nature. www.farrow-ball.com
Available at Canadian Tire, RTR is Canada’s first ever “paint in a bag” that comes engineered with an easy-to-carry handle, built-in spout and easyopen screw cap. RTR’s pre-mixed paint line offers 14 colours, spanning neutrals like Eggshell and Latte to bolder ones like Poppy and Fresh Juice . www.canadiantire.ca
Fresco and Marrakech | PURE & ORIGINAL While exploring different suppliers of lime-based paints, the Montréal-based importer and retailer Ramacieri Soligo was impressed by Pure & Original, a family-owned Belgian company that makes natural, sustainable and environment-friendly paints in rich natural pigments and range of finishes. Two collections caught Ramacieri Soligo’s attention: the streaked or cloudy effects of Fresco, depending on brush motions during application; and the matte-concrete or soft tadelakt appearance of Marrakech (shown), based on a blend of lime and plaster. www.ramacierisoligo.com
Emerald Designer Edition | SHERWIN-WILLIAMS This launch isn’t so much about colour as finish. Formulated to enhance their existing Emerald line of paints, the new UltraWhite Base allows for brighter whites, excellent coverage, and a new gloss sheen for better finishes on trim, cabinets and doors. “Emerald Designer Edition is self-priming and provides excellent washability and protection against burnishing for lasting colour and sheen,” says Rick Watson, director of product information.www.sherwin-williams.com DESIGN SOURCE GUIDE 2021 15

Keynote | CERAMICA FONDOVALLE Composed of porcelain stoneware, Keynote tiles are made to resemble a heterogeneous mixture of cement, rock fragments, and other natural materials. The six colours of Pearl (shown), Amber, Cocoa, Arctic, Cool Grey, and Titanium have been designed as a complement to the brand’s Res Art collection. www.fondovalle.it
A collaboration with Ukrainian interior designer Daria Zinovatnaya, this new collection is playful and expressive. The 10”x10” porcelain floor and wall tiles come in a matte finish and 16 decorative patterns reminiscent of traditional cement tiles. The mix of colours and geometric shapes allow for variable layout schemes, and when combined with the complementary solid tiles in Ivory, Light Grey, and Dove Grey, they can be made to simulate a ceramic rug. www.ceramicabardelli.com

Designed for modern, avant-garde interiors, these porcelain floor and wall tiles feature an iridescent finish and dramatic streaks reminiscent of sheet metal. The collection is further enhanced by the MetalBrick format: inspired by an ancient Japanese pottery technique called Raku, these bricks come in five accent colours to complement the metallic slabs.
Wonderwall | COTTO D’ESTE Now available in a new 20”x40” format in five elegant decors, the graphics feature floral motifs and sophisticated patterns reminiscent of fabric. Measuring just 3.5mm thick, these ultra-thin, largeformat slabs are reminiscent of wallpaper yet with the high-performance benefits of porcelain stoneware. www.cottodeste.com
Chimera | CEDIT Designed by artist Elena Salmistraro and named after the mythical creature of Greek tradition, this exploration of colour and geometry features Art Déco graphic motifs, three-dimensional textures, and designs inspired by Gunta Stölzl and Anni Albers. The large format porcelain slabs measure 6mm thick and are available in 20 colourways spanning four graphic themes. www.florim.com/en/cedit
Summer | FAP CERAMICHE Modeled after handmade terracotta tiles, the Summer collection features 10 variegated colours inspired by those found in nature: Terracotta, Brezza, Sabbia, Sciara, Crepuscolo (shown), Vento, Sale, Mare, Oliva and Ombra. A 3D option, Slot, brings tactility to the wall tiles, while two decors – Flower and Track - feature glossy reliefs on a matte background, reflecting the light. www.fapceramiche.com
Marvel Shine | ATLAS CONCORDE
Concert Edimax | ASTOR
In collaboration with Savema, an international marble supplier, this new collection captures the purity of Italian white marble with authentic veining in a silk, polished, or matte finish, and a range of decorative mosaics, geometric formats and four colourways: Calacatta Delicato; Calacatta Prestigio; Statuario Supremo (shown); and Calacatta Imperiale. www.atlasconcorde.com
With black and white porcelain tiles resembling Carrara marble and Flemish bluestone, this collection recalls the peaceful setting created by Johannes Vermeer in his painting The Concert. The collection’s palette and formats, inspired by the chessboard and geometric floors typical of 17th century Dutch households, are available in square, rectangular, and hexagonal formats along with several coordinated mosaics for wall applications www.edimaxastor.it DESIGN SOURCE GUIDE 2021 17

the return of Milan
Twelve days in late autumn showed the beginnings of a rebirth for the world capital of design.
As the first European city hit hard by COVID-19, some estimates put Milan’s economic losses at €10 billion: a deep hole to climb out of post-pandemic. But doing what Milan does best – investing in quality design – that climb began with Milano Design City, a program where from September 28 to October 10 more than 230 physical and digital events were organized with the participation of all design districts around the city and included exhibitions, showroom openings, new products launches or re-editions and debates. After the bruising of Salone del Mobile’s cancellation in April, it is encouraging to see the city regain its creativity.
GetLucky & Ruff | MOROSO These “sister” armchairs designed by Patricia Urquiola experiment with binary geometry to combine their seat parts and backrests to great effect. Created for dining, the soft backrest of GetLucky wraps around the back like a ribbon before interweaving with the comfortable seat. This dialogue between shapes becomes more solemn and sculptural in Ruff, designed for the contract and hospitality sectors. The wide armrests lie on the sides of the seat section and wrap around it firmly, even though they have just one single joint. Both are available in a variety of fabrics and leathers. www.moroso.it

Riviera Collection | TALENTI This outdoor collection of sofas, chairs, deckchairs, tables, coffee tables and sun loungers designed by Jean Philippe Nuel subtly combines fabric, ceramic and leather with an aluminum structure in a fairly sophisticated design. The lines can suit a contract, residential or even nautical context. www.en.talentisrl.com
Taba | MOROSO Swiss/Argentinian designer Alfredo Häberli has created an eight-piece collection that includes a sofa, two armchairs, a bench and four ottomans and is named after an old Argentinian rural game where a cow’s bone is affixed to two metal plates and then thrown. How that applies to the furniture is a bit of a mystery. www.moroso.it
Curl | SALVATORI Taking inspiration from Michelangelo’s remark that he only “chipped away at stone that was in excess,” the Piero Lissoni-designed chaise longue has been “revealed” from a block of natural stone using cutting-edge CAD/CAM technology to push the material to its limits. Both an engineering achievement as well as an elegant, simple interpretation of an established design. www.salvatori.it
Casilda Daybed | TALENTI Spanish architect Ramon Esteve’s daybed collection uses a natural palette of materials and shapes that merge quite cleverly with the play of the light and shadows, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. www.en.talentisrl.com

Mattonelle Margherita | MUTINA Working with artist Nathalie Du Pasquier, this complex tile collection is characterized by a duality of, on one hand, a simple, minimalist style evident in the plain-coloured elements; and on the other a courageous, creative approach characterized by a large variety of graphics composed of 41 different patterns, all designed by hand. An antislip finish is also available upon request. www.mutina.it
Android | ANTRAX Seen in Casa Cappellini during the fair, Daniel Libeskind’s first radiator is more a sculpture than technical product, appearing to be made from a sheet of paper and recalling Japanese origami, folded and folded over again. Available with electric and hot-water connections, the concept shows a major focus on sustainability issues, thanks to the use of recyclable material and requiring very little water content. www.antrax.it
Gong Circus | CAPPELLINI This variant of the Gong coffee table is characterized by thin, rigorous lines and represents a tribute to graphics reminiscent of the 1950s, in particular the designs of Alexander Girard. Designed by Giulio Cappellini, the collection is available in three variants: white/black; brick red/ orange; and green/dark green www.cappellini.com
Anima | SALVATORI The company’s first collaboration with Canadian powerhouse Yabu Pushelberg is a bathroom range with distinctly amorphic, organic form. Using four different stones including Bianco Carrara, Crema d’Orcia, Pietra d’Avola and Gris du Marais, Glenn and George applied, as they say, “the sensibilities of clay to marble” to express the material’s sensuous capacity. www.salvatori.it
