Five Companies Leading the Charge in Luxury Home Design
This year’s exhibitors showcase a rising emphasis on skilled craftsmanship, bespoke solutions, and statement-making pieces that never compromise on comfort. Visitors will encounter everything from lively outdoor seating and architecturally striking lounge chairs to handcrafted ceramic elements and one-of-a-kind furnishings, all influencing how modern interiors and outdoor spaces are conceived.
Among the standout participants are five brands each offering a unique perspective on contemporary luxury design.
Tidelli Outdoor Living Brings Lively Artistry to Outdoor Spaces
Renowned for its bold color schemes, detailed weaving techniques, and relaxed outdoor lifestyle approach, Tidelli Outdoor Living merges modern aesthetics with Brazilian artisan traditions. The brand’s offerings include lounge seating, sofas, dining sets, daybeds, swings, and complementary accessories—all designed to enhance patios, gardens, and poolside areas.
A hallmark of Tidelli’s designs is its signature nautical rope weaving, which adds dimensional texture, pattern, and color to outdoor furniture while meeting the durability demands of both residential and hospitality settings. Through customizable production methods, the company presents an alternative to conventional outdoor furnishings, proving that thoughtful color selection, tactile textures, and ergonomic proportions can infuse personality into refined outdoor environments.
Fireclay Tile Expands Into Bathroom Design with Handcrafted Precision
While primarily recognized for its handmade ceramic tiles, Fireclay Tile is broadening its creative scope with Fireclay Bath—a collection of faucets, shower systems, and bathroom accessories that applies the brand’s ceramic expertise to functional hardware. The lineup comprises four distinct series: Foundry, Emerson, Flatiron, and Contour, each interpreting contemporary bathroom design in its own way.
The Foundry Collection stands out by pairing solid brass fixtures with handcrafted ceramic handles available in multiple glaze finishes. This combination introduces an unexpected sensory dimension to bathroom elements, allowing designers to match fixtures with tile selections or create striking material contrasts. With its focus on handcrafted precision, adaptable finishes, and durable materials, the collection shows a broader trend of raising utilitarian objects to key design components.
Buster + Punch Raises Architectural Hardware with Geometric Cohesion
At the fair, Buster + Punch will unveil its upcoming HEX collection, which integrates architectural hardware, electrical components, and lighting under a unified geometric design system. Set to launch in January 2027, the collection ensures visual harmony across multiple home elements through deliberate design details.
Thomas Hayes Studio Emphasizes Timeless Craftsmanship in Custom Furniture
Founded by designer Thomas Hayes and currently led with Jonelle Hayes, the studio blends California modernist influences with Brazilian design principles and traditional woodworking techniques.
The studio’s portfolio features dining tables, seating, sofas, storage units, and accent pieces, many distinguished by dynamic shapes and an appreciation for natural material beauty. Collaborating closely with architects, interior designers, and private clients, the studio creates bespoke furnishings tailored to specific living spaces.
Innovative Design Takes Center Stage with FR33FORM
FR33FORM is redefining furniture conventions through unconventional, organic shapes that prioritize movement and user engagement. Founded by Jules Henry, a former Apple engineer, the brand merges engineering precision with automotive design aesthetics to create seating that defies traditional expectations. Key pieces like the Vibe chair, the expansive Volo rocking lounger, and the fluid Koza swing demonstrate this approach, offering shapes that encourage interaction and relaxation.
These innovative designs are particularly well-suited for modern terraces and outdoor areas, where their sculptural qualities complement natural surroundings. The brand advocates for furniture that actively shapes spatial experiences, promoting a design philosophy centered on fluidity and playful interaction in daily life.
Paulo Antunes Merges Contemporary Boldness with Artisan Techniques
Paulo Antunes merges striking modern forms with traditional furniture-making methods to produce luxury pieces marked by bold profiles, rich material contrasts, and meticulous construction. The studio’s collections feature seating, tables, cabinetry, and lighting, incorporating leather, wood, marble, and metal to create visually dynamic yet functional designs.
