Inspiration

Putting design in its place means even a small space. The small salt box houses of Outport Newfoundland were tight on space but big on creating a welcoming and social home with space that brought people close together. The kitchen was the heart of that home with friends and family dropping in from dawn to dusk.

The Kitchen Table, Chair, Bench and Stool by Swiss designer Anthony Guex has human-scaled proportions and fit into an urban loft as easily as a salt box house. The Kitchen series by Swiss designer Anthony Guex are enduring essentials, a timeless range for the everyday. Connecting past to present to future, each piece features wide horizontal slats inspired by the exterior of homes, sheds, and stages, and Fogo Island’s vernacular forms, in general.

Fabrication

Made using regionally sourced birch by our craftspeople at Fogo Island Workshops. Available in a range of finishes including hand-buffed Danish Oil, which deepens the amber colour of the wood, and White Oil, which neutralizes the amber tone for a raw matte look. Both absorb into the wood and richen the grain. A variety of coloured lacquers are available. Custom colours and sizing are available on request.
