The Three Little Pigs — $1,350.00
The timeless children’s story takes a modernist slant in Steven Guarnaccia’s version of The Three Little Pigs (2009). Instead of just standard, everyday pigs, these three build houses of architectural masters. The pig protagonists include Frank Gehry Pig, Le Corbusier Pig (you can tell by the glasses) and Frank Lloyd Wright Pig. Their iconic modernist homes are furnished with familiar classics. And it turns out in the end that concrete and stone are the best protection against aggressive, anti-architectural...
Cheese Slicer — $15.40
Create clean, uniform slices of soft cheese with this well-resolved tool. With just a stainless steel wire and cast aluminum roller – and simple tilt of the slicer – cut slices of varying thickness. Or leave it on the cheese plate and let your guests choose their own portion. Made in Germany.
Cortina Table Lamp — $2,500.00
Defined by a structural and material simplicity, the Cortina Table Lamp and Floor Lamp (2000) by Pablo Pardo simultaneously contain and diffuse light. The compact polycarbonate shade is virtually architectural, a thin rectangle of transparency that delineates the form and filters light through an external fabric diffuser, which is stretched over the top, down to the base. The floor lamp may be tucked beside a sofa, or placed in a corner, being well suited to today's versatile environments in which...
Mortar and Pestle — $220.00
A simple take on a traditional tool, this Mortar and Pestle (2004) has a clean and modern aesthetic. Consisting of just an indented oak block and spherical stoneware grinder, it can be proudly left out on the countertop. The Mortar is attractive enough to be used a serving vessel for salt, pepper or other spices. Use the set to crush, grind or mix salts or spices, even guacamole and pesto.
Water Pitcher — $200.00
Using Iouseki stones and Binchotan charcoal, the Charcoal Water Pitcher creates filtered, mineral-rich water. The stones come from the mountains in Kanazawa, the capital city of Ishikawa Prefecture, on the Sea of Japan coast. The charcoal is specially prepared for potable water use, and also works as a deodorizer to create odor-free water. In place of filters that need monthly replacement and add to landfill, Iouseki stones and Binchotan charcoal last up to six months (depending on use). In addition...
Platner Coffee Table — $225.00
If you combined the work of I.M. Pei and Eero Saarinen, the result might very well look like the Platner Collection (1966). Warren Platner worked with both of the industrial and organic design giants before turning his attention to steel wire furniture, for which he devised the structure and production method. Requiring as many as 1,000 welds and crafted out of wire and space, the Coffee Table demonstrates Platner's belief that there is room in modernism "for the kind of decorative, gentle, graceful...
Risom Lounge Chair — $1,700.00
The Risom Lounge Chair (1941), by Danish designer Jens Risom, is testament to the simplicity and ingenuity that is so often found in timeless modern designs. Widely known as the first chair to be designed for Knoll®, it brought the natural materials and understated form of Scandinavian design to large-scale U.S. production. The streamlined maple hardwood frame is expertly joined with mortise and tenon construction. A deep seat pocket and tall backrest allow for comfortable and supportive reclining...
Canvas Tote — $17.50
Filson luggage is built to withstand mid-winter in the Klondike, which means their Canvas Tote (1991) can easily handle the rigors of modern travel in the lower 48 and beyond. This durable luggage collection is made with industrial-weight rugged twill that’s densely woven and soaked in paraffin wax. The result is a strong material that’s highly water repellent, even in arduous conditions. Brass fittings resist corrosion in fresh or salt water and full-grain, vegetable-tanned bridle leather provides...
Play Time — $29.96
Play Time (1967) is French director Jacques Tati’s fourth major film, and generally considered to be his masterpiece work. Play Time is notable for its enormous set built especially for the film, as well as Tati’s trademark use of subtle, yet complex visual comedy supported by creative sound effects; dialogue is frequently reduced to the level of background noise. Tati’s character Monsieur Hulot and a group of American tourists attempt to navigate a futuristic Paris constructed of straight lines...
Sense™ Media Cabinet — $1,199.00
The simple and intuitive design of Sense (2008) is the work of Korb + Korb for Herman Miller®, Inc. The top of the Media Cabinet can be used to hold a printer, fax or other office machine, while supplies and files are neatly stowed below.

In the back, a slot left in the walnut casework provides an exit for cords. This original...
Nelson Platform Bench — $75.00
George Nelson's Slat Bench is one of the great icons of mid-century modernism. For Herman Miller's® influential design director, utility was as important as beauty. His spare rectangular bench is proof. It serves equally well as table, platform base or seating, depending on need and situation. No wonder it's been called timeless, something this functional never dates. This original is an authentic, fully licensed product of Herman Miller, Inc.
Eames® Walnut Stool — $375.00
Charles and Ray Eames first designed the stools in 1960 for the lobby of the Time Life Building in New York City, but they soon became popular products and with time, one of the more charming classics of modern design.
Eames® Chaise — $1,755.00
Just 18 inches wide, this lightly scaled chaise fits in a study, an office - even a hallway. Its soft foam cushions rest atop a gently sloping frame and two loose cushions give added support under the neck, back or legs. Remarkably comfortable, the development of the chaise was inspired by Hollywood director Billy Wilder. In a conversation with friends Charles and Ray Eames, Wilder mentioned that he often took his afternoon nap on a foot-wide plank slung between two sawhorses in the Nova Scotia lighthouse...
Eames Lounge and Ottoman — $6,106.00
In continuous production since its introduction in 1956, the Eames Lounge Chair is widely considered one of the most significant designs of the 20th century. It was the culmination of Charles and Ray Eames' efforts to create a club chair using the molded plywood technology that they pioneered in the '40s. In Charles Eames' words, the vision was a chair with the "warm, receptive look of a well-used first baseman's mitt." The result has become the consummate lounge set, timelessly blending old-fashioned...

Veneto Rectangular Coffee Table — $520.00
The Veneto Collection (2006) uses the durability of teak wood to create a uniquely modern outdoor furnishings collection. Contract quality, the Coffee Table’s clean lines and natural coloration suit applications from pool to patio and beyond.

This teak is taken from the inner part of the tree’s trunk, where the wood is rich in oils and devoid of knots. Like...
Noguchi Table — $145.00
Following his apprenticeship with the legendary Constantin Brancusi, sculptor Isamu Noguchi began to experiment in environmental design, theatrical sets and later, product design. Noguchi created his first furniture prototypes for Herman Miller® in 1942 and went on to work with companies such as Steuben and Zenith. The Noguchi Table (1947) conceals nothing; revealing everything about the nature of simplicity. Two simple, smoothly shaped pieces interlock to form a tripod that supports a .75" thick...

Costanza Table Lamp — $131.25
Paolo Rizzato's Costanza Lamp (1986) has been copied so frequently, it's become an archetype of modern lighting. Costanza's square, brushed-aluminum base firmly holds a telescoping stem that is adjustable from 30"-43". The innovative power switch/dimmer is a sensorial aluminum bar - a light touch adjusts the light intensity and turns the lamp on and off. The polycarbonate shade, which is held together with eight aluminum rivets, offers a warm, diffused light and is easy to clean. Costanza is made...
Panton Chair — $260.00
Verner Panton's cantilevered stacking chair (1960) was the first single-material and single-form chair to be made and has been produced by Vitra through three decades of development in plastics technology. This version consists of a single piece of strong, flexible polypropylene with integral color that will not fade over time. As striking as modern sculpture, this classic piece is appropriately durable and easy to clean in cafés or restaurants, and is comfortable enough to use as an occasional chair...
Nelson™ Swag Leg Armchair — $2,800.00
George Nelson began with the legs when designing his Swag Leg Group (1958). He insisted that they be made of metal and machine formed, and discovered his solution in "swaging," a method of using pressure to taper and curve a metal tube. For the Swag Leg Chair, the question became how to connect the four legs, and through Nelson's own engineering the resulting base appears deceptively simple. To create the chair shell, Nelson got permission from Charles and Ray Eames to use a patented process they...
Goetz Sofa — $1,120.00
While aesthetically pleasing with its clean, crisp lines, the real story of this piece is its comfort. Through his own research and consulting with ergonomic experts, Mark Goetz determined the ideal seat depth that provides comfortable support for seated postures while also leaving enough room for stretching out and napping. Uninterrupted wrap of walnut required Goetz to design a complex miter joint for the corners. Matte-finish steel legs; walnut veneer on a plywood frame; leather upholstery...
Eames® Soft Pad Management Chair — $800.00
When Charles and Ray Eames designed the Eames Aluminum Management Chair and Side Chair (1958), they created a revolution in seating that has lost none of its edge. These chairs were originally developed as a special project for a private residence being designed by Eero Saarinen and Alexander Girard. Moving away from the Eameses’ shell forms of the 1940s, the designers combined a newly affordable aluminum frame with a sling seat that subtly conforms to the body's shape. This original is an authentic...
Chadwick High Task Chair — $1,880.00
Like its abbreviated counterpart, The Chadwick High Task Chair for Knoll® (2005) is designed for comfort to last through a day of reaching, leaning, and the micro adjusting our body does without even realizing it. This is even more true for designers and architects and the large format they work in. Designed by Don Chadwick, a pioneer in workspace seating, the High Task Chair is intended for use in the home studio or anywhere a drafting table or café-height table takes the place of a desk. It features...
20-06 Round Bar-Height Table — $1,848.00
The 20-06 Round Bar Height Table (2006), one of several Emeco seating and table options, was designed to provide a tabletop surface for the 20-06 Barstool, but it’s anonymous enough in design to work with most any barstool. The hand-welded seamless construction is the result of a 77-step process developed in 1944 when Emeco first manufactured its 1006 Navy Chair for use on WWII submarines. The Bar Height Table is part of a collection that began with the 20-06 Chair designed by architects Foster ...
Zola Six Drawer Dresser — $1,200.00
The Zola Collection (2008) has a simple and clean aesthetic that suggests the influence of Eastern minimalism. The case goods, including the Six Drawer Dresser, feature unadorned drawer fronts, echoing the visual lightness and minimalism of the bed. Finger holds on the sides of the drawers provide ease of opening, and a silent vacuum-closure mechanism renders drawer-slamming impossible. Hidden aluminum feet give the Dresser the appearance of floating and contribute to the lightness of the collection...
Wine Opener — $18.75
A sturdy update of a classic 1879 design, this professional-grade wine puller has two prongs to break the seal around the cork, thus avoiding unsightly cork debris floating in your Cabernet due to an extraction gone awry.

Nelson Ball Clock — $60.00
George Nelson often collaborated with other designers, and in the case of the Ball Clock (1948), Nelson was at a dinner party with Isamu Noguchi, Irving Harper and Bucky Fuller. As the story goes, they were all sketching and "we'd had a little bit too much to drink," said Nelson. In the morning, they saw a drawing of the Ball Clock on a roll of drafting paper. "I don¹t know to this day who cooked it up," said Nelson. "I know it wasn't me. It might have been Irving, but he didn¹t think so. [We] both...

Costanza Floor Lamp — $980.00
Paolo Rizzato's Costanza Floor Lamp (1986) has been copied so frequently, it's become an archetype of modern lighting.

Harvest Table — $400.00
DWR Design Studio created the Harvest Drop Leaf Table (2008) using the design principles that embody the Shaker approach to furniture. This table has a sturdy and symmetrical form that’s defined by its functionality. Simple and austere, two drop leaves increase or decrease the footprint depending on immediate needs. Wooden pegs fold out to support the leaves when they’re raised and act as stoppers when the leaves are folded down. The modern maxim that form follows function was phrased by the Shakers...
Inox Toilet Paper Holder — $770.00

Its lightweight parchment shade emits a warm, diffuse glow, creating a compelling contrast to its sleek aluminum frame.
Nelson™ Coconut Chair — $3,750.00
George Nelson once said that "total design is nothing more or less than a process of relating everything to everything." So it makes perfect sense that, in 1955, Nelson related a lounge chair to a coconut. Intended to combine comfort with freedom of movement, the shape of the Coconut Chair's white molded shell was inspired by the shape of Eero Saarinen's Kresge Auditorium at MIT. Echoing both the auditorium's triangular shape, as well as a portion of coconut shell, the Chair's unique form invites...
Cast Iron Fire Bowl — $36.00
Inspired by a Danish coastal way of life, back when fires were used to help ships navigate shores, the Fire Bowl was designed to gather people outdoors by creating a focal point on the patio or beach. Made with an efficient conical shape, the lower bowl collects ash and elevates the flames off the ground to better dissipate heat. The cone grate in the upper bowl creates an air pocket from which the fire can draw, while also creating a more efficient burn by focusing the fire into the center. The...
Eileen Gray Side Table — $70.00
This height-adjustable table from 1927 is one of Eileen Gray's most rational designs and reflects her desire for functional perfection. Originally conceived as a bedside table for the guest room in Gray's famous E. 1027 house in Cap Martin (her sister was fond of breakfast in bed), it is also useful as a side table in living rooms, office reception areas or, (thanks to durable materials), on the terrace. Its purist aesthetic complements a wide range of furnishings and settings. Simple assembly required...
Drink Floor Lamp — $1,120.00
A modernist revision of the halogen torchiere, the Drink Floor Lamp (2004) represents both functional and aesthetic advances. Inspired by the simple, iconic form of a long-stemmed wine glass, the lamp's tall shade effectively protects the halogen bulb while still allowing for efficient light-shedding. At nearly six feet tall, the design provides bright, crisp white uplighting for spaces with average ceiling heights of 8 to 12 feet. A touch-sensitive dimmer, located on the stem, adjusts light to suit...
Eames® La Chaise — $4,600.00
The voluptuous organic form of the Eames La Chaise was an evolution of plywood chairs developed a year earlier in collaboration with architect Eero Saarinen for the "Organic Design in Home Furnishings" competition at the Museum of Modern Art, New York. A startling innovation in chair design, its expressive outline was made possible by technological advances in molding fiberglass to create free-form shells for flexible seating. It is a dramatic piece for office reception areas, galleries and museums...

Ball Fan — $279.00
Ron Rezek’s Ball Fan (2003) takes a clean, minimal approach to ceiling fan design, with all its components house in a simple sphere. Using a patented single-piece rotor with attached blades, wobbling is diminished on all three of the fan’s speeds (80/120/210rpm). The four 52" plywood blades and 120V motor move 6,000 cubic feet of air per minute at the highest speed. A reverse switch keeps warm air circulating during cooler months and the fan is controlled with either a wall-mounted unit or optional...
Costanzina Table Lamp — $28.00

Eames® Aluminum Management Chair with Pneumatic Lift - Vicenza — $2,200.00
When Charles and Ray Eames designed the Eames Aluminum Management Chair and Side Chair (1958), they created a revolution in seating that has lost none of its edge. These chairs were originally developed as a special project for a private residence being designed by Eero Saarinen and Alexander Girard. Moving away from the Eameses’ shell forms of the 1940s, the designers combined a newly affordable aluminum frame with a sling seat that subtly conforms to the body's shape. This original is an authentic...
Fog Linen Tray — $455.00
Japanese designer Yumiko Sekine uses raw linen from Lithuania to create the base for her Fog Linen Trays (2008), which is then coated in durable and dishwasher-safe melamine plastic. The coating allows the texture of the linen to come through, while providing a clean platform for serving snacks and appetizers. With basic, functional shapes, there’s an honest simplicity to Sekine’s work, which is also reflected in how the Fog Linen Collection began. When Sekine had her first small apartment, she decided...

Modular Shelving Unit Shelf - Small, Douglas.Fir - Design Within Reach — $25.00
Sabrina and Dylan Jones launched Studio North Design (SND) in 2001, bringing attention to an often overlooked material: forest-salvaged, old-growth Douglas fir.

The 100% wool construction is naturally dirt and flame resistant...

Flight Recliner - Fabric 3 — $14,670.00

Armed with experience designing ergonomic in-flight seating for Northwest Airlines, Bernett took us on willingly. He designed the Flight Recliner, in collaboration with Nicholas Dodziuk, to have none of the bulkiness or macho pretense of a traditional recliner. Upright, the Flight Recliner functions as a comfortable, streamlined club chair. Opened, using a patented conversion...

Matera Bed — $1,200.00
Created exclusively for DWR, the Matera Queen Bed (2007) is fashioned from thick walnut from its headboard to its case frame. The solid panels on either side of the bed are elevated slightly off the bottom frame giving a feel of lightness and breathing room to the sturdy construction. Solid ash bed slats were increased in number from the traditional 15 to a more stable 20, rendering a box spring unnecessary. “I don’t have pictures of sexy models on my walls,” says Matera’s designer Sean Yoo, “I have...

Egoa Armchair - Fabric Tonus — $56.00
The initial appeal of the lightly scaled Egoa Armchair (1988) is a clean, finely drawn profile that suggests Le Corbusier's "engineer's aesthetic." However, the chair's ultimate success lies in comfort-driven ergonomics. An ingeniously hinged seat and back move easily with the body, inviting users to adopt a dynamic sitting posture and allowing free range of movement. Every detail of the armchair has been carefully considered down to the glides that ensure stability and prevent the steel frame from...
