The W* House / Hall

Riuku bench

Mika Tolvanen / E&Y

€180

Tokyo-based editor, developer, manufacturer and retailer E&Y doesn’t feel the need to scream and shout about its designs. An impressive stable of designers has been busy creating stunning pieces since it’s inception in 1993. And while they may have caught the eye of those in the know like MOMA New York, London Design Museum and the Musee des Arts Decoratifs in Paris they have refreshingly stayed clear of the need for attention-seeking installations or come-look-at-me peculiar design/art creations. A highlight from their recent Greenland collection was this charming Riuku bench by Finnish designer Mika Tolvanen, which sits perfectly in a narrow hallway.
