Bookmark This: Consoles

A console is the perfect piece to bring personality into any interior. This week’s selection showcases ingenuity in both form and material. The curved forms of Vonnegut/Kraft’s Mesa Console transcend the materiality of hardwood, while KWH’s Repeat/Arc Console features a layered arc detail, an element also found in M. Pei Studio’s part-column, part-arc Portico Console Table. Meanwhile, Scheibe’s Cumberland Console Table takes a more elemental l form, with a beveled edge and dual triadic legs. Last but not least, inspired by line drawings, Phaedo’s Lexan Series captures the movement and playfulness of the artist’s sculptural work, adding a whimsical feel to any interior.

Spec Sheet: Pisces Ottoman

Designed by Sarah Sherman Samuel, the Pisces Ottoman is a study in material, form, and unexpected detail. A faceted solid wood base is softened by an upholstered seat. Handmade ceramic tears punctuate the wood like small pieces of jewelry, introducing a tactile element to an otherwise elemental form. The Pisces Ottoman is available in a range of wood finishes and can be further personalized with custom ceramic pieces and glazes.

Introducing: Coil + Drift

Led by modern dancer-turned-designer John Sorensen-Jolink, Coil + Drift was founded in 2016. Based in New York’s Catskill Mountains, the studio works with a wide range of materials, including brass, sand-cast metal, hand-blown glass, and sustainably-sourced domestic hardwoods, shaped into forms that feel simultaneously sculptural and deliberate. Coil + Drift sees design as the process of choreographing objects and space; making objects with material honesty, curiosity, and a deep spatial sensitivity. Every piece is created by their team of in-house artisans and local craftspeople.

“John has created something truly special and lasting with Coil + Drift. Over the many years I’ve known him, I have watched him consistently, tenaciously, and poetically push his studio into new creative territory. It’s my honor to welcome Coil + Drift into the permanent Colony roster.” – Jean Lin

Vibes Only: The Testament of Ann Lee

Directed by Mona Fastvold, The Testament of Ann Lee (2025) follows Ann Lee herself, a member of the Shakers in 18th-century England, as she leads and expands their movement to the United States. It is an epic musical and, while it does not focus closely on the furniture our industry so reveres, the film does trace how Shaker values were embedded in their labor, craftsmanship, and use of materials.

Inspired by the minimalist ingenuity of Shaker furniture, we’ve pulled together a selection of work that shares the movement’s emphasis on functional beauty.

Spec Sheet: Off-Grid Credenza

In the spring of 2023, we presented Colony’s final group exhibition in our second floor Canal Street loft: The Knockoff Show. The show invited our roster of designers to explore the line between dupe and inspiration. It felt personal and passionate—unfortunately they’ve all been knocked off at one point or another. 

Grain‘s Off-Grid Credenza was an absolute standout, highlighting how a reference to craft and history can make a contemporary design all the more nuanced. The credenza’s checkered pattern and swinging doors take inspiration from the distinctive checkerboard and functional pivot hinge of a door made by an unnamed Baule artist in the late 19th century. The Off-Grid Credenza was produced in a limited-edition capacity and has reached the end of its run. The original will be the last one available and we would love for it to find a permanent home in the right collection. Please reach out for pricing and delivery information. 

“We know that the work that we make is never just ours. We know this first and foremost because we have always worked in partnership with each other, our employees and even the expertise of our vendors. We know this because we often can’t remember where something started or whose idea initiated the conversation. It is always a result of our collective lived experience and often it is hard to pull apart where inspiration stops and origination begins.” –Chelsea Minola of Grain

Each edition of Colony Presents will pop-up with a week-long installation in our Tribeca storefront window. The series continues what we consider our most imperative work: introducing the limitless spirit of the independent designer to the American market. 

“I am constantly seeking out work that breathes artistry and ingenuity into every detail. Through our new “Colony Presents” program, we can support a larger, even more diverse network of talented makers.” —Jean Lin
