Opened late last year, Standard Equipment is a Toronto based product/furniture company that produces simplistic decor for your home. Primarily fabricated from steel, SE has a wide range of bold products like sofas, incense holders, and ceramic mugs, which have this beautiful steel ring around them, it’s such a cool detail. Everything they create has a timeless feeling to it, there’s nothing trendy or fad-ish about them. Just a great series of iconic pieces that should last the test of time.
Finding seating that can be playful and comfortable can be a challenge. The Filicudi Armcair manages to accomplish both those things. Designed by Marcantonio Malerba, the chair’s prickly pear cactus-esque shape is meant to “evoke a magical place of holiday and wild nature,” which I think it does perfectly. I feel like one could easily sink into this chair, maybe even take a little nap with big hat on in the sun.
Clothing and lifestyle brand Noah has launched a collaboration with Copenhagen-based furniture brand GUBI on a bold, colorful version of the iconic MR01 Outdoor Lounge Chair. Designed by Mathias Steen Rasmussen, the chair has been updated in new colorways — yellow, royal blue, navy, and gray — which brings a new personality to the chairs.
Along with the release of the chairs is a capsule collection of five pieces of clothing — a beach towel, water-resistant 5-panel hat, swim shorts, a tote bag — and that very beautiful sweater you see below, which feels like a contemporary take on Pendleton’s iconic Glacier National Park blanket.
