Inspiration
The small salt box houses of outport Newfoundland were tight on space but big on creating a welcoming and social home that brought people close together. The table was the heart of that home, with friends and family dropping in from dawn to dusk.The small salt box houses of outport Newfoundland were tight on space but big on creating a welcoming and social home that brought people close together.

The Bridge Series by Swiss designer Anthony Guex has human-scaled proportions and fits into urban lofts as easily as salt box houses. The contemporary collection presents an appreciation of the ‘super normal’ with quiet aesthetics that prioritize utility and tranquility desirable in modern life. Connecting past to present to future, each piece features wide horizontal slats inspired by Fogo Island’s vernacular structures.
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.Bridge Bench
