Inspiration

The Premises collection connects the experience of living in salt box houses of the past with the needs of urban people today. Putting design in its place means even a small space.

Japanese designer Wataru Kumano brings the spirit of Outport Newfoundland aesthetics to a new interpretation with the Pins series. The table has a sturdy and practical table matched with playful and slightly off kilter base that mirrors the expressive and individual Outport Newfoundland aesthetic which borrowed from styles around the world but expressed it in a unique, individual, and quirky way that ignored the rules.

The table human-scaled proportions and fit into an urban loft as easily as a salt box house. Completely contemporary at the same time as being of the past, the collection presents an appreciation of the ‘super normal’ with quiet aesthetics that prioritize utility and tranquility desirable in modern urban life.
