EDIT

The design world this week: real makers, real collections, real conversations, and the people worth knowing. Curated daily, released weekly, everything sourced.

Devin Wilde Ceramics

Designer of the Week

Devin Wilde

Ceramics & product · Brooklyn, New York, USA

A Stanford-trained architect turned ceramicist, on Sight Unseen's 2025 Hot List and newly released with an eleven-piece collection for Design Within Reach.

Devin Wilde studied architecture before founding his Red Hook studio in 2023, and it shows. His hand-thrown vessels and tables carry classical columns, Art Deco geometries and delicate structural ribs where ornament and engineering become the same thing. Deeply saturated garnet and cobalt glazes have made him one of the most collected young ceramicists in American design.

De Le Cuona reaches for faded European grandeur with Rugged Revival

Rugged Revival is de Le Cuona's newest fabric collection for the American market, eight heirloom-quality textiles across the brand's Curtaining, Sheer and Upholstery weights, built from wool, linen and hemp into richly textured jacquards, cotton velvets and embroidered sheers in a faded, European-grandeur palette running from bleached chalk through burnt umber to a deep vineyard wine. The line worth carrying into a client conversation is the brand's own one, refined beauty meeting the bold character of a room that actually gets lived in, which makes this the specification for a brief that wants heritage weight without the stiffness of a period reproduction, and a collection wide enough to dress a whole room from a single story rather than piece by matched piece.

Morris & Co. reissues C.F.A. Voysey's own archive as Voysey House Volume I

Voysey House Volume I is Morris & Co.'s first collection built entirely around C.F.A. Voysey's own archive rather than William Morris's, nine wallpaper designs including Snake & Tulip, Dory and Squire's Topiary redrawn from the original blocks onto updated grounds, among them a metallic ground and a papyrus paper for Papyrus River. It matters because Voysey's flatter, more graphic hand reads very differently to a client than the denser Morris prints do, so this is the shelf to reach for on a scheme that wants genuine Arts and Crafts provenance without the density, and the archive story itself is a strong thing to hand a client who likes to know what they are buying into.

Studio Waldemeyer swaps the flame for patented electronics in Lumeable, its rechargeable candlelight

Lumeable is Studio Waldemeyer's rechargeable candlelight, a hand-formed glass vessel set over the founder's patented electronic flame, sold as a family of five sizes with several brightness levels and a replaceable battery, and it lit St Stephen Walbrook for London Design Festival on 15 September with a live jazz set played by candlelight. For a working scheme it answers a real brief, the client who wants the flicker and warmth of candlelight somewhere an insurer, a venue or a toddler rules out an open flame, and because it is designed to be repaired rather than replaced it earns its place in a hospitality or heritage interior rather than sitting as a novelty.

Khoy strips the folding mechanism out of the sofa bed

Khoy's flagship sofa bed does away with the usual folding mechanism altogether, two upholstered slabs of polyurethane foam that unzip and open flat like a book into a floor bed, sized single to king and shipped vacuum packed for easier handling up a tight stair or into a lift. Creative director Andras Kelemen's point is the honest one, that a conventional sofa bed is usually uncomfortable as one thing or the other because the hardware dictates the silhouette, which makes this worth knowing about for a guest room, studio flat or granny annexe brief where the client wants a piece that reads as proper furniture first and only confesses to being a bed when asked, in a choice of twelve fabrics running from soft neutrals to terracotta and ocean blue.

Sebastian Herkner makes Tubes a radiator out of Impruneta terracotta

Terre is the Italian heating brand Tubes' first radiator in terracotta, designed by Sebastian Herkner from the clay of the Impruneta quarry in Tuscany, and the clay is the structural body rather than a finish applied over metal, extruded through a special mould into one continuous vertical form of 1120 by 140 by 1400 millimetres, fired and glazed in five glossy options, Transparent Glazed Terracotta, Vitreous White, Bark Brown, Mineral Grey and Ocean Blue, with an integrated electric element in recycled aluminium and two accessories, a marble or lacquered shelf and a metal towel rail.

Kelly Wearstler's first H&M Home collection sells out within hours, and the trade should take note

H&M Home's first-ever collaboration with a named designer is Kelly Wearstler's, unveiled at Milan Design Week inside Palazzo Acerbi and landing online and in select stores on 3 September: modular lounge chairs, lamps, vases, side tables and trays in wood, ceramic, marble and metal, priced at H&M's own level, with several pieces already sold out within hours. It is worth clocking for the pricing signal rather than the pieces themselves, Wearstler's curved, high-gloss, materially rich silhouettes are now the reference language at the high-street tier, so a client is likely to arrive with this collection on their phone asking for the look at a fraction of the cost, and it is a useful thing to have already seen.

Seven London Design Festival pieces are built from what the workshop usually throws away

Dezeen's own edit of seven London Design Festival pieces gathers objects built entirely from offcuts and workshop scraps: Lewis Duckworth laminates leftover timber ends into the single-plank Dagwood Bench, Tom Golland bolts walnut and white oak offcuts together with zinc-plated steel for a tall Tissue Box, Audra Grays and Maxim Lester build the Fused sconces from glass offcuts, scrap metal and old LED strips, Carsten in der Elst carves a monolithic chair from quarry offcasts in the Graywacke Offcut series, and Duy Huynh, Oscar Warman and Spared each reassemble reclaimed timber, salvaged shelving or workshop sawdust into a coat rack, chair and collectible object.

Twelve names who do not usually make lighting take on the Murano chandelier

Venice Glass Week's headline show, Murano Illumina il Mondo, fills St Mark's Square with twelve chandeliers made by names who do not normally touch lighting, each paired with a Murano furnace and on view until 1 November: architect Norman Foster's Hydra for Salviati spreads twenty frosted-glass arms using the Rigadin technique, artist Cerith Wyn Evans threads neon through Idea Murano's glass for G=A=R=L=A=N=D, and designer Bethan Laura Wood works barrel-shaped filigree into Taiko with Gambaro and Tagliapietra, alongside nine further furnace pairings running from Componenti Dona to Seguso Gianni.
