These Statement Furniture Pieces Will Improve Any Space

Bo Concept Zürich Sofa

Bo Concept Zurich Sofa

Given the amount of time we’re likely all spending at home right now, compact is key. Fortunately for Danish designers Bo Concept, that need plays in nicely to the design of its new Zürich Sofa. Created to offer the same kind of comfort and features of Bo Concept’s main range but with dimensions more suited to a loft, the Zürich is perfectly proportioned for space-saving, without skimping on what matters.

As ever, the Zürich is customisable, offering 13 different modules to play with alongside 120 different fabrics and leathers, allowing it to fit in with any space or design scheme. It’s everything we love about Bo Concept’s unique Danish design, shrunk down to a manageable size – the best of both worlds.

From £1,899 for a 2.5-seater, BoConcept.

Lyzadie Tui Armchair

Lyzadie Tui Armchair

Sustainability is on the tip of everyone’s tongue in this day and age, but for Lyzadie Renault it’s more than a trend; it’s a mission statement. The New Zealand-based designer uses forms inspired by her native landscape while at the same time crafting them out of materials that respect it. Take as the perfect example, the TUI Armchair.

The black leather is actually Pinatex, a material made from pineapple fibres created as a byproduct from existing agriculture. The feathers on the back are actually upcycled bicycle inner tubes and even the wood is rescued river matai. Created by three separate makers across the country, the TUI Armchair is both a reflection of New Zealand’s natural beauty and a dedication to keeping it that way.

$15,000, Ly Zadie Design Studio.

Agapecasa Incas Dining Table

Agapecasa Incas Dining Table

Using a design originally created by Italian architect and industrial designer Angelo Mangiarotti, Agapecasa has turned what were originally prototypes into a range of furniture using organic, natural materials and a flair for the dramatic.

The Incas dining table is defined as much by its sleek minimalism as the pyramid-shaped legs originally found in the Eros collection, which use delicate eyelets to create a superb visual purity across its form. Available in natural, brown or dark oak, if you have the space to show it off the Incas table will make for an eye-catching naturalistic statement piece.

£7,999, Chaplins.
