LIFE/DESIGN

Whether you're scrolling Insta or enraptured in an opus, we've got some suggestions to snuggle up with in the Sula: 

Sula by Toni Morrison

For a pseudo eponymous moment, Morrison’s 1973 punchy novel is ripe with her signature rich lyricism.

Colony Classics: Puffer Chair by Moving Mountains

Initially it's the plush curves, the wisps of inviting Alpaca Bouclé that draw them to take a seat. Then there is the jolt of glee on the faces of clients who find themselves swiveling in the Moving Mountains’ Puffer Chair on our showroom floor. Originally conceived in 2016 with a kiln-dried solid Maple frame, and eight-way hand-tied coil spring, this Colony Classic simultaneously evokes lounge interiors of the 1970s and what designer Syrette Lew calls laid-back West coast living. Fabricated in a playful Alpaca Bouclé or suave golden mohair, this chair is also available COM.

Passages: Winter

WINTER
Sudeep Sen 2014
 

Couched on crimson cushions,

pink bleeds gold

and red spills into one’s heart.

Broad leather keeps time,

calibrating different hours

in different zones

unaware of the grammar

that makes sense.

Only random woofs and snores

of two distant dogs

on a very cold night

clears fog that is unresolved.

New plants wait for new heat —

to grow, to mature.

An old cane recliner contains

poetry for peace — woven

text keeping comfort in place.

But it is the impatience of want

that keeps equations unsolved.

Heavy, translucent, vaporous,

split red by mother tongues —

winter’s breath is pink.
