Designer/brand: Studiocharlie for Salvatori, available from WallpaperSTORE*

Designed by Studiocharlie, Salvatori’s new ‘Balancing’ collection brings together various desk accessories that are crafted from Calacatta Vagli marble, and matched with burnished brass and leather.

Name: ’Flow Bowl’ table
Designer/brand: Nendo for Alias, available from WallpaperSTORE
Price: £610
The result of a collaborative effort between Nendo and Alias, the ’Flow Bowl’ collection is a series of tables and furniture accessories defined by table tops which appear to melt, forming bowl-like shapes as they slide towards the floor. An interplay of volumes, as well as the contrast between the perceived fluidity of the piece and its actual robustness — thanks to the use of steel and polyurethane — is what makes this large table noteworthy.
Name: ‘Gradient’ mirror
Designer/brand: Phillip Jividen
Price: $3,800
Clean simplicity defines Cleveland-based designer Phillip Jividen’s ‘Gradient’ mirror, which makes its 2018 return after its inaugural run in 2015. Jividen looked to the sky above as inspiration for the mirror’s design, and wanted to reflect the many colours of the atmosphere. Utilising the latest in glass manufacturing technology, the mirror’s colour changes depending on the viewing angle, and produces an illuminating effect when placed in a naturally lit environment.
