Alexander Joseph have just launched the world’s first luxury cordless lamps. The decision to create the range of lamps came following a fruitless search by the founder, Mark Robinson. He explains, “around a year ago my wife and I looked for decorative cordless lamps, all we could find were entry level or novelty varieties with very limited endurance. I spoke to several interiors’ organisations, lighting companies and retailers, then decided there was a place in the market for Luxury Cordless Lamps”. The patent pending technology used to power lamps provides at least 50 hours of continuous use before the need for recharging. Put another way, 3-4 weeks of normal use. Hidden in a sealed base, the technology is discrete and robust. The company have designed their own LED bulb, preferring to house the drivers in the base rather than within the bulb itself. This allows Alexander Joseph to provide a consistent soft light equivalent to a traditional 60w bulb. The idea has always been to hide the technology so lamps look as decorative as other luxury brands, but without the cord and plug.

Atelier MIRU delivers to daring individuals with an artistic flair and appreciation for the mastery of hand-made craftsmanship. The Resurrection Collection of bespoke, painted furniture by Atelier MIRU was born from a poignant moment in the artist’s life, which became the main inspiration in her creative process. All Eyes on You was created exclusively as part of this collection. Hand painted in oil, the mirror is reminiscent of the human iris and alludes to its various anthropological symbolic values. The eye is not only a gate to inner realms and spaces of higher consciousness, but also enlightenment and mindfulness among many. Through its magnified and in-your-face quality, the piece emphasises and deliberates these connotations. By enticing both the visual and emotional, this mirror will easily become the focal point of any luxury interior.
German bathroom product manufacturer, Bette, will be exhibiting its ‘30 year warranty’ glazed titanium-steel baths, shower floors and washbasins; showcasing the latest in bathroom design, colour and safety at Sleep + Eat (November 20-21). They will be giving live demonstrations on the durability of its products, which are finished in BetteGlaze; a glass-like surface which is harder than marble, plastic or epoxy granite, is non-porous, scratch-resistant and easy to clean.
Products are available in both gloss and matt finishes, in an extensive range of colours, with the opportunity to colour-match ceramic items, such as tiles. Bespoke colours can be created to fit with interior themes, as well as bespoke sized products to fit the desired space perfectly. The latest edition to Bette’s range of baths will be exhibited with the freestanding bath in one of their new stand-out shimmering colours; welcoming the BetteLux Oval Silhouette bath in new ‘Blue Satin’ finish. What’s more, is Bette baths, shower floors and washbasins are made from entirely natural materials and are 100% recyclable. Bette has also invested heavily in green technologies at its factory in Germany to create 2/3 of its energy requirements from renewable resources!
Since 2006, eggersmann has been busy realising the idea of manufacturing and further developing a collection of kitchens and equipment which can hardly be matched for its timelessness and minimalism. The name UNIQUE really says it all. The focus is on individuality, also exceptional and exquisite materials. A decisive and fundamental idea for this system is the homogeneity of all relevant surfaces. Front and side surfaces, also handles and working surfaces are made of just one identical material, creating this very unique and stunning style for the discerning clientele.
Next level functionality meets flawless design in Zip Water UK’s latest HydroTap, the All-in-One Celsius Arc. The brand behind the world’s most advanced drinking water systems brings homeowners the very best in style and substance with this high-performance multi-functional tap. The new HydroTap instantly dispenses five different water types from a single tap and under-counter unit, including highly filtered boiling, chilled and sparkling water, plus unfiltered hot and cold water for washing up. Available in Zip’s expansive range of stylish finishes, including rose gold, brushed gold and gunmetal, all this functionality is also wrapped up in the Arc’s elegant ‘swan neck’ and dual-lever design making it perfectly suited to both modern and period kitchens.
As well as offering interior enthusiasts huge design scope, the HydroTap also boasts filtration 25 times more powerful than a water filter jug. Eliminating the need for still and sparkling bottled water, a kettle and additional mixer tap, owners can de-clutter countertops at the same time as reducing their household’s single-use plastic waste. By specifying the Zip HydroTap All-in-One Celsius Arc, clients can also be confident that they’re contributing to the energy efficiency of their home. With advanced energy saving features and best-in-class air-cooled technology, the tap performs to the highest standards of environmental responsibility and sustainability.

Another month, another round-up of the latest products, design concepts and collection launches from this October! With new, collaborative meeting solutions for office spaces, a kitchen design scheme which acts as more than just a kitchen and the return of vintage-inspired trends in bathrooms and surfaces…
The MX POD was created to meet different types of meetings and to integrate the new collaborative technologies. This solution is totally suitable for open plan offices. Thanks to its seating capacity up to 4 people, you can easily arrange meetings, whatever its use : face-to-face meetings, interactive presentations or videoconferencing. Designed in order to integrate the AV and collaborative technologies : this solution includes a table with a connection panel and it can accommodate a screen from 32’’ to 40’’. It creates an intimate meeting space while suiting to the new collaborative tools : presentation on screen, videoconferencing system, network connection… Its acoustic correction absorbs noise and contributes to the comfort and the concentration of attendees.
Launched with 35 taps which form the Atrio Collection and sharing one unified look of elegance and precision, Atrio is symbolic of a new era of design that challenges conventions in order to create something truly iconic. The fundamental, consistent design is inspired by GROHE’s original best-selling ATRIO collection incepted more than 10 years ago. Atrio’s sleek, cylindrical design gives a timeless elegance, enhanced by a form that measures the same diameter from the base to the top. This design feat is replicated across all taps within the collection. This is a first for tap design which required technical experts to achieve new levels of engineering perfection, to ensure both form and function worked in harmony. The spout itself curves in the perfect arc of a semi-circle.
From the bold cross handles with subtle ‘H’ and ‘C’ markings, to the slim cylindrical shape made possible by GROHE’s super-slim cartridge technology, the considered details add up to an object with a reassuring air of design permanence. The Atrio collection delivers versatility in its design, with a number of different sizes and configurations for bathroom basins, baths and showers. The Atrio range is available in three beautiful finishes; Chrome, Supersteel and Brushed Hard Graphite.
Heralding new heights for Brighton’s coastline, the new British Airways i360 observation tower is designed by Marks Barfield Architects, who also designed the iconic London Eye. Working with the architects, Inside Out provided a full furnishing solution for the attraction’s dedicated food and beverage offering, the West Beach Bar & Kitchen. Inspiration for the venue has been derived from the vibrant local culture of Brighton and Hove, channelling an eclectic beach hut vibe which includes art from local artists.
From Inside Out’s UK workshop, existing full circle booths have been reupholstered in ocean-hued blue fluting and refitted with weathered-style limed oak wooden panels, which are reminiscent of the seaside. Bespoke marshmallow stools also handmade in the UK feature in an array of red, purple and yellow, dotted around the bar with Cocktail lounges and sofas in matching fabrics to the local art on the walls. From the main dining room, Thea and Karavan chairs mingle with Italian made Jeeves armchairs in a mixture of natural oak and white-washed wood stains. Complementing the dining chairs, the solid wood table tops continue the weathered look with limed oak finished table tops upon black metal bases.
Poggenpohl’s innovative +Venovo kitchen is designed for how we live our lives today because the kitchen of today is more than just a kitchen. It is a room in which everything can – and should – take place. Demanding flexibility and freedom, +Venovo is a living sculpture that enriches its environment and moves with you as you move, grow and adapt through life. The contemporary design is freestanding on elegant metal legs, eliminating the boundary between kitchen and living space and the +Venovo island incorporates everything necessary to cook and prepare food.
+Venovo can be located anywhere in the home and even taken with you when you move. The units are available in the full range of Poggenpohl finishes, with the metal frame in the option of matt black, polar white, gloss chrome or gloss grey.
The Carmen bathroom collection is synonymous with a vintage style that can be appreciated by generations to come. Its soft, classic lines give the entire ensemble character and poise – from vitreous china to bathroom furniture, from taps and brassware to accessories, every detail tells a captivating story. Carefully designed and refined rectangular shapes are used to give distinction and definition. This can be admired in the basins (choose from wall-hung, pedestal, in countertop or vanity options in a variety of sizes) as well as the style of the lower part of the WC toilet.
Committing to a vintage style bathroom doesn’t have to mean compromising on functionality! The new Carmen collection comes with a multitude of storage possibilities. Should you need additional space, add the elegant Carmen column unit, where glass doors add grace and definition. The height-adjustable shelves also make a statement, along with the unit’s LED interior lighting. All the pieces in the Carmen vintage style bathroom collection are made from Roca’s exclusive high quality vitreous china. Its robust enamel provides great durability and resistance and a brilliant shine and white colour that will remain flawless through the passage of time.
Hand-silvered antique mirror glass, made in-house by Saligo Design will enhance your interiors with an authentic, vintage-esque aesthetic. The vintage style of antique mirror is a distinctive product and, being hand-finished in their workshop, is even more versatile. Hand finishing the mirror allows them to control the level of antiquing, creating lighter or heavier levels of distressing overall, and more specifically, when required, around the edges. Vintage comes in a number of different glass types. For the authentic looking drama of antique mirror, they use hand-silvered clear float glass. With bronze and grey glass, they create reflections which are subdued behind a warm or neutral tint; this finish has less contrast and is elegant and understated.
The key to success in the contemporary design industry is to always stay one step ahead. Check out the latest products, collection launches, technology innovations, new releases from this September!

Roundhouse was founded over 20 years ago by architects with a passion for beautiful, functional design. Roundhouse is a multi-award-winning, design-driven, luxury kitchen company made up of independent British designers, architects and craftsmen. Roundhouse creates bespoke kitchens and furniture with a discreet aesthetic, using a huge range of innovative materials, textures and colour. Because Roundhouse brings design vision and architectural perspective to bear on every detail, there’s a much greater scope to what can be achieved. Their team work on a wide range of residential projects, from small but perfectly formed London apartments to grand designs in large spaces.

Each mount in the range offers different features designed to provide improved visibility and functionality of the iPad in both domestic and commercial environments.
Intended as an iconic element within the office, this armchair designed by ITEM Designworks aims to be the differentiating factor in work spaces. Thanks to its dynamic and open conception, it enables conversation, reading and the use of electronic devices without falling into a relaxed state which impedes your concentration. To maintain the active attitude, we have removed its arms and set at 180 degrees which favours privacy for the user due to its high degree of sound proofing. Badminton invites you to sit, change space and position, leave the independent work desks. “It is a kind of throne that impresses you with its size and shape. The aim is to feel well and comfortable, but always with an active attitude”, explains Javier Cuñado, director of ITEM Designworks. A piece that responds to the changing needs of work spaces, more friendly, illuminated, ventilated and one that promotes communication and work together.
With two types of different bases (in saltire and the other peana with a 70 cm diameter) which enable a 360 degree turn and two different height models (armchair and seat), Badminton was a new challenge for Actiu. In its manufacture it employed new injection techniques and materials never before used in its factories. In short, it is a safe product which will not leave anybody indifferent and where the creation, inspiration and design feel with you.

The Riverside Walkway will showcase a series of outdoor installations, whilst Oxo Tower Wharf and Bargehouse will host brand activations, talks, exhibitions and experiential events.
On the first floor of the Doon Street site, STILL BY FORM is a unique restaurant installation designed with a palette of harmonious layers of colours and texture to provide a setting for quiet contemplation; allowing visitors to disconnect for a moment of observation and reflect away from the bustle of the show.
Curated by design consultancy and procurement specialists BY FORM, the pop-up restaurant serves as a backdrop for exciting interior pieces that are yet to be showcased in the UK. STILL is influenced by simple Danish design and organic Japanese aesthetics, showcasing a selection of hand-picked collaborations with brands and designers. The pop-up restaurant installation features a refined collection of design across lighting, textiles, surfaces and furniture, and new materials, including brands like Anour, &tradition, KABE Copenhagen, Zilenzio and Atkinson & Kirby. The menu will be provided by 26 Grains, from Neil’s Yard London.
STILL utilises Caesarstone‘s newly launched Topus Concrete surface design for the restaurant’s main bar. Developed as part of the Caesarstone design team’s wider exploration of industrial finishes and weathered patinas, Topus Concrete’s gentle linier pattern is reminiscent of Jupiter’s rotating cloud bands, while its warm blush pink colours sit harmoniously within the calming palette used across STILL.

This year, designjunction will not only be returning with an abundance of the latest design innovations, product launches and trends for the forthcoming year, but will be bringing with it an inspirational troop of thought-provoking outdoor installations on the Riverside Walkway. British designer Steuart Padwick will be among the few to make a dramatic addition to the London skyline during designjunction in support of mental health with his project, Head Above Water. With its panoramic views of St Paul Cathedral and the iconic city skyline, the 9 metre high sculpture on Queen’s Stone jetty is designed to initiate the vital discourse about a topic which is all too often swept under the carpet.
The ‘Head’ is deliberately gender, ethnicity and age neutral and stands as a symbol of hope, bravery, compassion, positivity and change for those who have or are still confronting mental health issues. Steuart Padwick first sculpted a head in clay and then developed the concept into its current form using precision engineered, renewable and sustainable cross-laminated timber panels, provided by Stora Enso. To realise the structure Steuart Padwick worked with structural engineering expertise, Ramboll. It is a model of sustainable, smart design and build.

Designed by Jonathan Hindle FCSD, KI’s new Take5 lounge seating collection is inspired by mid-century styling and designed for today’s workspaces. The collection’s single, two- and three-seater sofas with low or high backs are complemented by ottomans, coffee tables and side tables. Take5’s pillowed shapes and curved armrests are evocative of a teddy bear, instantly inviting the user to feel comfortable and relaxed. The space beneath the armrests also acts as legroom, allowing the user to pivot to the side. The flat top of the armrests double as both a secondary seating surface and a worktop for notebooks or laptops. Each sofa can be fitted with power and USB modules. Matching or contrasting upholstered high backs can be added to reduce distractions, increase a sense of privacy and for noise reduction. These elegant products help to create a more domestic atmosphere in the corporate workspace.
Coinciding with the launch of Take5, KI have teamed up with leading textiles designer, Natasha Marshall, as well as Bute Fabrics, to create exclusive print fabrics to further enhance the collection’s domestic appeal. Two new designs, ‘Vista’ and ‘Pompom’ have been produced in exclusive colourways especially for Take5. Custom colours can also be produced to match a specific project. Jonathan Hindle comments:
“Workplaces are increasingly taking cues from hospitality and domestic environments to create altogether more inviting, comfortable spaces. Untethered from our desks, we now seek spaces that support casual collaboration, or give us an opportunity to get away from the hustle and bustle of a busy office space. Take5 was created to allow workers to find an appropriate work setting for either individual or group tasks, or to simply take ‘5 minutes’ away from work and regenerate.”

Prepare for an Unexpected Rendez-Vous with MAISON&OBJET Paris!
MAISON&OBJET Paris (M&O) opens its doors this month with a new layout, new areas, new purchasing experience and even more design inspiration! From 7th – 11th September 2018 design professionals from across the globe will be descending upon Paris to see the best in creative excellence and innovation. The new layout focuses on inspiring designers with two main hubs and 11 different sectors.
Since 1995, M&O has been the world’s foremost event for professionals of the lifestyle, interior, and design industries. Every edition brings together some 3,000 brands and more than 90,000 unique visitors – of which 50% hail from outside France. Promoting new contacts and emerging talents, M&O presents twice a year the latest sources of inspiration by shedding insight into current and future industry trends. As a result, the event has become an effective catalyst for brand development and business growth – and SBID are delighted to offer SBID members complimentary tickets!
Fundamentally a multi-sector and cross-industry event, M&O provides a snapshot of the market twice a year in Paris. The broad, yet curated offering shown gives the fair a unique edge. This is why a pertinent structuring is strategic to attract brands and buyers, and keep them engaged. This year, M&O has taken on a new challenge: a complete overhaul of its structure. The new layout is the reflection of the organisers’ wish to go back to basics: Maison and Objet. Philippe Brocart, Managing Director of SAFI (the company that organises M&O) comments on this new approach:
“Since its inception, the fair has always seen two categories of visitors, each with very different expectations for their visits: retailers and specifiers. The definition of the new sectors was guided by practical criteria chosen to clarify the offering and make it more accessible for both visitor categories. On the one hand, retail buyers appreciate the great variety of products on display, but need a clear divide by product typology and price range to save time. On the other, specifiers tend to look for specific solutions for their projects, with a more style-oriented approach. With this in mind, the structure of the offering was entirely revamped to provide greater efficiency, especially important as professionals have grown accustomed to having easy access to whatever information they need since the development of online tools.”

Maison: new sections by style!
Interior design styles are just as diverse as fashion trends. The challenge for specifiers is scouting new ideas, finding new inspirations. For them, M&O have created a new Maison Hub, making precise and inspiring changes to achieve just the right balance. Four realms have been defined geographically and temporally: Unique & Eclectic, Today, Forever and Craft.
Objet: seven distinct families!
Highly regarded by French and international buyers – whether for novelty shops, concept stores, department stores, or online shops. Always in pursuit of accessories, ornaments and all sorts of decorative objects, these visitors organise their visit by product typology. The new Objet Hub has been expanded into include seven sectors: Cook&Share, Smart Gift, Fashion Accessories, Kids&Family, Home Accessories, Home Fragrance and Home Linen.
The Inspirations Forum introduces the theme, ‘Virtuous’
With every new edition, the professionals-only lifestyle and interior design trade fair calls upon the most highly respected experts to analyse new consumer trends and present them under a broad theme. Twice a year, the Inspirations Forum sheds light on the very diverse and cross-industry trends that impact the market and shape the future. This season, the trend forecasting agency NellyRodi will be taking over the Inspirations Space and Bookshop-Café to share its vision on the theme ‘Virtuous’.
