Oxley’s furniture have been displaying their outdoor furniture at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show for 30 years, demonstrating the company moto of sustainable luxury. Each piece of furniture they have ever made in all those years has been made from 100% recycled aluminium and the company is currently re-recycling furniture that it sold at its first appearance at the show back in 1993.

For this year’s stand Oxley’s have teamed up with JAB International® to promote their wonderful outdoor fabrics complimenting their luxury furniture. Over the summer months Oxley’s Furniture will be displayed at JAB’s London showroom in the Chelsea Harbour, beautifully paired with JAB outdoor fabrics for the cushions.

To further this collaboration between the two companies, Oxley’s will also be promoting JAB carpets. The purely elegant carpets generate fluent transitions between indoors and outdoors, creating a homely atmosphere on terraces, gardens and pool areas.

Simon Hudson, Managing Director of Oxley’s Furniture said: “This is the first time we have worked so closely with one of the world’s eminent outdoor fabric houses. We have put together a display that demonstrates what can be achieved when outdoor luxury fabrics and outdoor luxury furniture work in harmony”.

The RHS are committed to improving their sustainability practice, something that Oxley’s strongly backs. Sustainability is at the core of Oxley’s as a business. By using recycled aluminium, Oxley’s saves 95% of the energy needed to create new aluminium, and due to it being infinitely recyclable it can be used over and over again and won’t lose its quality.

To further their sustainable efforts, Oxley’s offers a unique buy back guarantee that allows customers to buy the furniture they want completely risk free. Once Oxley’s customers have owned their furniture for 12 months, Oxley’s will buy it back for half the original purchase price for the next 10 years. This is a wonderful example of a company working in a truly circular way and taking responsibility for the whole lifecycle of their products.

For 35 years, Arteriors have been proud to work with artisan craftsmen from across the globe to create the highest quality furniture, lighting, wall décor and accessories.

To cater for our extensive and always growing network of interior design clientele, each season we cherry pick pieces of inspiration from around the world, curating product collections tailored to a wide range of design led interiors.

For the past few seasons, we’ve taken direct inspiration from a range of global destinations to produce statement pieces that combine unique location-specific elements with our signature aesthetic.

Berlin Bauhaus

An architectural movement that proceeded to inspire art and interior design for generations, Bauhaus combines contemporary geometric shaping with unique materials. Material of choice for this collection is luxurious leather. This is seen across an assortment of upholstered furniture, as accent detailing on accessories, and as part of lighting designs. A variety of finishes and forms creates distinctive, design-led products that showcase the juxtaposition of using a material ordinarily associated with a more traditional aesthetic within sculpted and soft designs.

Meyer Desk, £5,403; Hoover Chair, £2,840
Sebastian Sofa Indigo Velvet £7,769' Santorini Chandelier £4,195

Bel Air Luxe, & Monaco Glamour

Collections that imbue luxury in the traditional sense of the word are inspired by Monaco and Bel Air. Both exude opulence and grandeur with highlight features such as sumptuous velvet seating and rich mahogany furniture with extravagant chandeliers to bring to life this vision of luxury.

Napili Naturals

Inspired by a true tropical paradise and timed to launch with the approach of the summer season, this collection sings with the use of natural rattan and raffia, and elegant use of lighter hues are reminiscent of such coastal destinations. We’ve strived to be innovative with material choices, incorporating open linen weaves, coconut shells and wooden beading within our decorative accessories.

Eleanor Lounge Chair, £2,824; Omega Cocktail Table, £1801
Misha Accent Chair, £2909; Newark Floor Lamp, £2,632

Shibuya Modern

The beauty of minimalism is redefined in a collection influenced by Shibuya. Striking, modern shapes and a muted tonal colour scheme are juxtaposed by a selection of woods and ceramics that break up an otherwise monochrome palette. The highlight product from this range that most imbues a sense of Tokyo’s architecture and cultural influences is the Stella cocktail cabinet. With a silhouette reminiscent of a Japanese kimono, fashioned from panels of oyster oak, epitomising the aesthetic of this distinctive collection.

Montreal Fusion

A combination of traditional European influences appear to jostle with a contemporary aesthetic in our product range inspired by Montreal. The charm of this city is this combination of centuries-old architecture with elements of contemporary flair, recreated in product design through a mix of finishes including wood, blackened iron, and pale ivory.

Reid Dining Table £5,283; Ruskin Chandelier £2,175

Through decades of meticulous research, and by working alongside skilled craftsmen from around the globe, we’re continuously inspired to experiment with aesthetics, materials and techniques. A selection of location-inspired pieces are available in our Chelsea showroom, and form part of our Spring collection.

Focus SB® unveils a high quality low profile solid brass flat screwless plate featuring distinctive square corner detail entitled Renaissance, an evolution of a classic design and unrivalled on the luxury electrical hardware market.

Modern and crafted to last in-house from highest specification recycled solid brass, Renaissance products are available in bespoke sizes. The attractive low profile solution is achieved by cleverly conceived pocketed, clip and divot design details to the rear of the plate with hidden fixings for a superior flush electrical installation. Precisely machined switch and socket aperture details and craftsmanship are reinforced by reverse pressing blank brass plates for sharper edges, hand polished for consistent high quality.

Renaissance Sienna Socket
Renaissance Ochre Socket

A finishes palette comprises ‘Ochre’, ‘Sienna’, ‘Roma’ and ‘Umber’, with ‘Canvas’ offering primed and bespoke colour coated solutions for design story continuity. Plates are sprayed with matt lacquer in-house to retain lustre. Unbranded socket inserts and a lack of visible screws offer a minimalist design aesthetic.

Managing Director Focus SB, Gary Stevens says: "When I set our in-house technical design team the Renaissance brief in 2021, I knew it would be challenging because what I wanted didn’t exist! The concept was to design a true flat screwless plate with square corners, rather than a formed, or dished plate, or one that sits inside a frame in two pieces, or sits on a visible plastic frame, like the majority of available products on the market."

Renaissance Umber Socket
Renaissance Roma Socket

“I also wanted the ability to create bespoke sizes because that will be a prerequisite for most high end residential or hospitality projects. The team set about designing and trialling various solutions, taking inspiration from traditional and modern architecture, and the result is Renaissance, the rebirth of a classic design. A product like no other on the luxury market today – a true work of art.”

Available for projects in Hong Kong, the Middle East and the UK.

About Focus SB

Focus SB® is an award winning innovative British manufacturer renowned for the design, development and specialist hand finishing of premium electrical wiring accessories, blending traditional artisan techniques with the latest technology; specified for world class hospitality and leisure resorts, prime residential developments, heritage buildings, royal residences, superyachts and commercial projects both domestically and internationally.

CDUK, the Leeds-based supplier of solid surface materials and complementary products, including Corian® Solid Surface, PaperStone® and M|R Walls, announces a partnership with surface manufacturer The Good Plastic Company.

As part of the new partnership, CDUK grows its surface material portfolio with the addition of Polygood, The Good Plastic Company’s highly sustainable surface material made from 100% recycled and 100% recyclable plastic. Produced from a wide range of post-consumer and post-industrial plastic waste sources, such as refrigerators to single-use cutlery, electronics and industrial consumables, the material can be used to create contemporary and environmentally conscious furniture, as well as interior or exterior design elements.

The Good Plastic Company was founded in 2018 to contribute to solving the problem of the 400 million tonnes of plastic waste generated annually, and with the aim to substitute virgin plastic and other non-sustainable materials everywhere possible, making recycled plastic a new norm in design and architecture.

Polygood panels are manufactured using responsibly sourced waste from a single type of plastic (PS – Polystyrene) to ensure circularity, quality and durability, as well as being waterproof and hygienic to suit a broad scope of applications. Polygood can be used as a structural material, it can be thermoformed to create curves, and CNC routed to add texture and further design features.

With the annual capacity to produce more than 50,000m2 of recycled plastic panels in two factories in the Netherlands and Ukraine, the newly formed partnership provides architects and designers with a sustainable material that can be widely rolled out for large-scale projects in the commercial, office, hospitality, and healthcare sectors. Polygood is suitable for many vertical and horizontal applications, for both interiors and exteriors, including residential and commercial furniture, bathroom surfaces, washrooms (shower enclosures & vanity units), retail and exhibition plinths, counters, booths, signage, and lighting. With a Cradle-to-cradle certification pending, Polygood will help to achieve project credentials such as BREEAM and WELL.

In line with its current commitment to support designers and architects in their design journeys, CDUK delivers Lunch & Learn or informal CPD sessions for the A&D community to provide them with all the tools, product training and inspiration needed to design and create with its portfolio, including Polygood, as well as technical specification support and advice throughout the whole design process.

Andy Noble, Managing Director at CDUK, comments:

"This partnership marks another important step in our company’s journey, as it further demonstrates our commitment to providing architects, designers and fabricators with the best and most innovative materials on the market to deliver outstanding projects. Over the years, we have built a reputation as a trusted partner in the design process by offering our 40-year knowledge and some of the most durable and innovative surface materials on the market. As the industry moves into the next phase of sustainable design, we are proud to be the sole distributor of Polygood in the UK and Ireland to actively contribute to reducing waste and achieving net-zero targets."

As part of the new partnership, CDUK and The Good Plastic Company co-curated two ranges of colours to respond to the market’s needs – the Core Range and the Bespoke Selection. The Core Range is a collection of twelve naturalistic and modern patterns available in a range of colour palettes. This range is designed to be aesthetically pleasing and sustainable, reflecting current trends to ensure the designs are stylish and modern. The Bespoke Selection includes 12 unique and bolder patterns, some of which are transparent or translucent and can be backlit or specified for applications including lighting or shower screens amongst others.

William Chizhovsky, the founder and CEO of The Good Plastic Company, says:

"We're thrilled to start this partnership with CDUK. With 43 years of experience and a strong reputation to leverage, CDUK is a perfect match for our high-quality and capacity manufacturing and our diverse range of patterns. Together, we'll continue to evolve the Polygood range to meet UK and Ireland customers' needs in a key and fast-growing market for sustainable surface materials. We look forward to reaching more customers who share our vision of a sustainable future, and to making further steps towards achieving a circular economy."

Polygood is available exclusively through CDUK in the UK and Ireland markets from 24th April 2023. All colours, panel sizes and thicknesses are available in stock.

About CDUK

CDUK is a supplier of surface materials and complementary products to the specification market in the UK and Ireland, including architects, interiors designers, kitchen designers, fabricators and contractors.

About Welltek Ltd

The Founders of Welltek feel strongly based on their own experiences that it’s not enough to design interiors that look amazing. Obviously, everyone wants to live and work in an environment that looks great but whether a space is healthy is often overlooked. Welltek believes that the built environment should do us good, not harm. So we provide solutions that enhance air quality and natural light, as well as award winning, *multi-functional* furniture designed to reduce noise pollution and everyday stress – the elements which we believe most affect human health from the moment you step into the building.

Modern minimalism at its most pure: A radical reworking of Dornbracht’s Meta.02 kitchen fitting has produced the new Meta Square. A consistent reduction in form underlines the elegance and versatility of the classic design. The series is complemented by new finishes and additional variants.

In this kitchen, organic forms encounter strict geometry, experimental colour combinations meet neutral tones. On the left: Meta Square in Brushed Champagne (22kt Gold) as a single-lever mixer, on the right as a Bar Tap.

Meta Square is delicate and contemporary

“The design refinements give Meta Square an essentially more delicate and therefore contemporary appearance. We have minimised the diameter of the body of the fitting, without having to use a rosette. The additional height of the fitting, the lack of a groove in the lower part of the lever and the integrated flow reducer in the spout, make Meta Square seem sleeker and more noticeably minimalist. At the same time, the right-angled bend of the spout underlines the clarity and succinctness of the fitting, as in the previous generation. A culture of fine differences,” says Michael Sieger from Sieger Design, who is the designer responsible for the refinements.

The square bend in the spout is the primary characteristic of Meta Square.

Available in new finishes and variants

From now on, Meta Square can also be obtained in three new finishes: Champagne (22kt Gold), Brushed Champagne (22kt Gold), and Dark Chrome. While the latter lends an unobtrusive elegance to the kitchen fitting, the sensuous and warm gold colour of the first two, has a persuasive appeal. In addition to this, the classic design is now also available in a pull-down version or as a Bar Tap, for preliminary activities.

The kitchen is increasingly becoming the focal point of every home. Meta Square as a single-lever mixer.

Cosmopolitan fusion in the kitchen

By interacting with various colours and materials, Meta Square consciously creates different ambiences. It is the ideal component for contemporary concepts to turn the kitchen into the focal point of the home, perfect for expressing an individual lifestyle. “Cosmopolitan fusion” architecture is one such inspiring example. It combines contrasting elements into something totally new: Eye-catching Pink and expressive Dark Green make a stylistically assured combination. An experimental liaison, it is complemented by coloured glass and ceramic accessories, as well as soft rosé textile elements.

“Cosmopolitan fusion” is an expression of the individual lifestyle of the occupants. Meta Square as a Bar Tap.
The “cosmopolitan fusion” kitchen inspiration: Meta Square in Matte Black harmonises subtly with the expressive terrazzo natural stone, and the pink wooden fronts of the kitchen units.

Meta Square demonstrates versatility and variability in this world: The Matte Black fitting blends in subtly, harmonising stylishly with the identically coloured Dornbracht sinks, and the expressive terrazzo pattern of the natural stone backdrop. The exciting contrast created by the Brushed Champagne (22kt Gold) finish, on the other hand, accentuates the kitchen design with exceptional elegance.

Curated shapes for hyper-personalised flooring. A reshaped Bolon concept, now with endless possibilities.

"Our relaunched Bolon Studio is creativity at its best. Playful, and clever! Introducing new shapes – making this concept a designer’s tool with endless possibilities for hyper-personalised flooring. Very Bolonish as we say", says Klara Persson, Head of Product Management.

Simple shapes at first glance… But when put together these curated tiles build mind-blowing immersive expressions, by mixing and matching textures and colours from the Bolon collections! A woven flooring renaissance making use of the direction of the weft and warp to reflect light while playing with spatial intelligence.

Bolon Studio is stepping onto eternal geometry. At Bolon dreamers and innovators come together to reinvent – big bangs are ever only created when worlds collide. This time geometric, graphic, and organic shapes resurface as super creative flooring.

"In reality, all shapes already exist out there in the universe. Creativity is the ability to combine existing ideas and make new ones. What we have created with the Bolon Studio concept is a tool to reshape the world of flooring", says Lisa Jarhult, Product Developer and Designer at Bolon.

New dimensions to shape things up and make any floor a fantasy-come-true. See for yourself!

The bedroom is one of the most important spaces in any project, whether residential or hotelier.

Considering the design of the room and ensuring that each element works effortlessly to create somewhere that promotes rest and enjoyment is key. Working closely with our global clientele over the past year, we’ve seen a noticeable shift in how designers are approaching each project, with a focus on creating a space of sanctuary. Each stage of the design process is an opportunity to create a space that evokes calm via colours, materials, furniture and accessory choice resulting in the perfect room layout.

As the centrepiece to all bedroom specifications, bed choice is key, and comfort is king. Think about both bed frame and mattress choice, as a deep slumber will be pivotal to guests not only feeling refreshed but recommending their experience to friends and colleagues.

Although we’ve seen hints over the past year or so that interior designers are becoming more experimental with colour, a calming selection of beiges, earth tones and off-whites remain top choices across our upholstered bed range. Texture is used as a way to add interest without opting for colour, with tactile fabrics such as sumptuously soft velvets, or comforting boucle offering the perfect starting point to create a neutral décor scheme that does not lack in design detail or impact.

Collaborating with our clients over the years, we’ve taken on board feedback on the importance of all the small details and our flexibility to fulfil bespoke requests means each element is considered, from bed height to access to switches, sockets and lighting.

Additional furniture should complement the overarching goal to create calm. Whilst acting as a decorative item and adding visual interest to a room, a well-chosen occasional chair at the right time of day can be either a relaxing additional space to unwind, or somewhere to sit and work. We’ve noticed an increase in designers’ incorporating seating at the foot of the bed, whether in the form of a chaise longue or decorative bench, again combining practicality that is tailored to the desired aesthetic. Bedside tables too should balance form and function, acting as a space to store personal items, while supporting stylistic factors within the room.

Often considered more by residential designers, incorporating elements of biophilia through the use of natural materials, and colours inspired by the outside environment has a multitude of benefits in hotel specifications. First popularised in the 50s to boost productivity in office design, this is a trend that has crept into hotel planning to promote a peaceful atmosphere.

Clerkenwell Design Week returns to the streets of EC1 for another year of exciting product launches, talks, presentations, and exploration of a wide range of international designers, makers, and manufacturers.

As part of this year’s event, KI will be taking space in the grade II listed building and CDW 2023’s festival hub, Old Sessions House, on Clerkenwell Green. The main feature this year is KI’s latest innovation, Clubhouse, a flexible system of acoustic frames and panels that can create a variety of private and collaborative spaces. From individual phone-booths to larger meeting areas with advanced tech integration, Clubhouse has been designed to revolutionise the way we work and interact in shared spaces.

About Clubhouse

Clubhouse’s clean and contemporary design provides a modern and innovative solution that is both visually striking yet supremely functional. Situated in this traditional backdrop will showcase its versatility, demonstrating how it can be seamlessly integrated into any setting. The crisp lines of Clubhouse’s chamfered edges throughout the structured framework paired with 10mm glass panels will juxtapose uniquely against the rustic, raw plaster walls and original chandelier of the room, creating a spectacular contrast between old and new. Clubhouse’s innovative design will offer a glimpse into the future of workplace, displaying how traditional spaces can be transformed into practical and productive environments.

Speaking about the installation of Clubhouse in Old Sessions House, KI’s President for E.M.E.A, Jonathan Hindle, said, “We are excited to showcase Clubhouse in such a beautiful and historic space. The juxtaposition of the old and new will create a visually stunning statement that highlights its adaptability. We believe this installation will offer visitors a unique and engaging way of experiencing Clubhouse’s unique features.”

KI's partners

KI has collaborated with Designers Guild to use their fabrics throughout the installation; chosen for their beauty, durability, and sustainability. A wide range of tonal neutrals, putty pinks, and accent crimsons in fresh linens and sheers have been selected to complement the modern design while adding warmth, colour, and texture to the space. Designer Guild’s commitment to environmentally friendly practices make them an ideal partner for the show.

Other products

KI will also be launching a Bruce Kenneth reclining chair and ottoman. Inspired by Brutalist furniture and architecture, the products have been designed with intentionally opposing smooth, organic curves and unnatural edges. Its realistic design doesn’t try to be too ‘statement’, but instead creates a timeless and practical product with seamless one-piece frame and legs.

Alongside this exclusive showcase there will also be a selection of KI’s most popular products to complete the scheme including Take5 Ottomans, 800 series storage, Grafton collection chairs, and Athens tables.

KI’s one-piece polypropylene Postura+ chair will also have focus on it as visitors are invited to explore its new colour palette and ongoing sustainability efforts towards a circular economy. The small gallery will also feature KIs process for a new bi-product wood chip mix for Postura+ stools that reflects their commitment to eco-friendly design.

Don't miss this opportunity to discover the future of open plan architecture and sustainable design with KI at Clerkenwell Design Week 2023.
