THE STORIES THAT INTRIGUE

We believe that each room, building, environment, and piece of furniture — along with the character and individuality of the people who inhabit these spaces — can be brought forward through the creativity of the mind, the critical taste of the informed eye, and the craft of the skilled hand.

Journal


Rakumba's stand at the Fair was truly (truly) exceptional. Unlike pretty much every other stand at Euroluce, they focused on a single piece of design, using the cumulative effect of their new Big Glow light to create an unforgettable experience and cementing the transformative effect that great functional sculpture can have. At the heart of Big Glow lies its pioneering use of Australian wool. Inherently luxurious, beautifully soft and enduringly relevant. We see Big Glow as a must-have piece of design for commercial projects big and small.

Vancouver-based lighting studio A-N-D made a bold impression at the fair, unveiling a dynamic and distinctive range of new creations. In a compelling collaboration with BOON_EDITIONS, A-N-D presented a curated collection of design treasures at the iconic Milan Stock Exchange, brought to life through a shared creative vision.

De Castelli unveiled a striking new chapter in its design journey, introducing fresh creations and refined interpretations of its iconic pieces. Seamlessly blending art with innovation, the brand continues to shape timeless works that blur the line between craftsmanship and contemporary design. The purity of curves and the dialogue between positive and negative space find new expression in the coffee table versions of Sinestesia, alongside new surfaces and wall cladding.

An ode to Milan, Molteni delves into the city's rich tapestry of history and innovation, honoring its storied creative legacy while offering a forward-looking reflection of its design future. At Salone Molteni showcased two significant additions to their collection: a new sofa by Christophe Delcourt and a desk by Vincent Van Duysen.

Linteloo
Linteloo unveiled a collection that seamlessly blends artisanal craftsmanship with contemporary design, emphasising comfort and sustainability. Standout pieces were the Willow armchair, designed by Yabu Pushelberg and the Palm Beach sofa, a modular masterpiece designed by Jan te Lintelo.

Bieke Casteleyn
Where cocktails meet craftsmanship. Bieke Casteleyn's Salone collection redefines the intersection of art and function, offering pieces that are both visually striking and supremely comfortable. Her work continues to push the boundaries of contemporary design, blending sculptural forms with everyday elegance. Complementing the armchair, Bieke introduced a new cocktail cabinet that embodies sculptural elegance.

Tollgard x ELLE Decoration Design Discussions
Join us on Wednesday, 12th March, at 2pm for ELLE Decoration’s latest Design Discussion. Renowned designer Bieke Casteleyn joins Ben Spriggs, Editor of ELLE Decoration, to explore her creative journey, unveiling the influences and craftsmanship behind the collections. Afterwards, stay with us in the showroom for something sparkling.
Please email rsvp@tollgard.com to confirm attendance.

Bieke Casteleyn
Fueled by a vision to redefine the dining experience, Bieke set out to create a table that breaks boundaries and challenges tradition. With its skillfully designed organic contours, Out of Line soon became an icon of Belgian refinement and craftsmanship. One that has been translated into a carefully considered collection of functional objects. We welcome a selection of unique new pieces to our showroom this spring, each with a natural and imperfect character.

OKHA
OKHA is a boutique furniture design studio based in Cape Town. Recognised for its exploration of organic form, texture and noble materiality, OKHA’s aesthetic inspiration echoes African topography, terrain, and iconography in designs that are a hallmark of Creative Director, Adam Court’s vision for an abstracted or sculptural interpretation of Africa’s natural order. The Cut Forms Side table is a bright and beguiling addition to OKHA’s side table collection.

Bocci
Bocci is a multidisciplinary design studio, research lab, and factory built around the core design principles of Omer Arbel. As makers, Bocci push the boundaries of design through experimentation and research. Unforeseen outcomes are at the heart of their process, embracing the beauty of unpredictability. This spring we welcome a selection of new beautiful designs to the showroom, which explore innovation and natural beauty.

Giopato & Coombes
Architects and designers Giopato & Coombes are known for their bold, ambitious approach to design. Their boundless creativity is evident in every fixture, transforming marble, brass, and glass into extraordinary works of art. Through material and technical innovation—including 3D printing and aeronautical-grade stainless steel—their designs achieve an ethereal, floating quality. We’re delighted to welcome some of their latest creations to our showroom, including the exquisite Maehwa Chandelier.

Giorgetti
Another new addition to the Tollgard showroom, Tollgard & Castellani’s exclusive first works for fine furniture maker, Giorgetti. The Chanterelle collection of low tables evokes the graceful upward flow of the forest gold from which they take their name. A slender base balances a generous top, expressing lightness through equilibrium. An iconic, contemporary, and rigorous design finds form in Giorgetti’s masterful hands.

Alabastro Italiano
After years of experience in the family business, which specialises in design and lighting, Riccardo and Alberto Ongarato found the brand Alabastro Italiano. Each project is conceived and designed to give a strong sign of recognizsability and uniqueness. The Aura is a unique pendant light made from alabaster, and inspired by the idea of wind, a whirlwind emblematic of its circularity in perpetual motion.

On Wednesday, Beautiful design was complemented by beautiful conversation as founder Monique Tollgård was joined by Elspeth Pridham of The Insider, to explore the ever-expanding narratives of automation and proficiency.

Alphenberg
Alphenberg believe that leather should look like leather. It’s a slow material: the buffalo skin the reflection of life in a rough terrain. Skin is not something that can be ‘made’, it comes into being through the process of living and growing. This Dutch company are at the forefront of working with leather in architectural and interior design, using leather to provide acoustic, aesthetic and architectural solutions.
Tollgard is proud to bring Broom, the most beautiful and bold expression of this technical expertise to London, straight from Maison et Object. Broom is elegantly fluted, tactile and luxurious.
