Analysis

At Focus 2026, Tollgard presents new work from Tollgård & Castellani - the design duo of Staffan Tollgård and Filippo Castellani - for its Italian house, Riva1920, at the heart of a stand shared with De Castelli,  Jeroen De Ruddere and Ceccotti Collezioni.

Solidity and softness runs through every piece: functional sculpture, made in the studio's own hand, where architectural forms have their edges quieted and their presence softened.

Wood - Older Than Architecture

Join us at theTollgard Showroom for Wood, Older Than Architecture - a conversation exploring the enduring language of wood indesign, with product designers Jeroen De Ruddere, Staffan Tollgård and FilippoCastellani, hosted by Pip Rich, Executive Editor of Livingetc.

‍Date: Wednesday 16th September, 4.30pm

Location: Tollgard Showroom, Unit 115, Chelsea Harbour Design Centre, London SW10 0XE

Please email rsvp@tollgard.com to confirm attendance.

Suiseki, for Riva1920

Suiseki (水石) translates as "water stone" - the Japanese art of appreciating a naturally formed stone for the landscape it evokes, held in miniature and contemplated for tranquility and longevity. Offered as a low table, a console and a dining table, the Suiseki collection moves Riva1920's language toward something more sculptural and fluid. Sharp edges are eased into organic shape. Monolithic, soft, harmonious.

Heiko, for Riva1920

Heikō (平衡) means balance and equilibrium. The Heiko dining chair is built around exactly that: structure and aesthetics in quiet dialogue. Sculptural and iconic, it is also grounded and refined, holding visual lightness alongside a chair that is genuinely comfortable to sit in.

De Castelli

De Castelli works metal until a hard column eases into rhythm and light, in Francesco Forcellini's Dorica sideboard and Adele Martelli's Light&Shade wall light.

Jeroen De Ruddere

Belgian designer Jeroen de Ruddere rests a softly diffused light on solid, turned wood, with his FL4 and FL5 floor lamps. The FL5 is a fitting close to the story. Its silhouette is drawn from a tree trunk: a solid, tapering wooden base in oak, mahogany or American walnut, carrying a softly diffusing fabric shade. Handmade and dimmable, it is architectural in presence and gentle in the light it gives - solidity and softness, in a single object.

Ceccotti Collezioni

Alongside the shared stand, Tollgard brings forward five new pieces from Ceccotti Collezioni, the Italian house at its Centre Dome showroom. The standout is the Captain Hook wall clock by Guglielmo Ulrich - a piece of design archaeology recreated from a single archival photograph of his 1940s original. A perpendicular beam in solid American walnut holds a brass dial, its numerals enamelled by hand, hands and fixings in burnished brass. Part of Ceccotti's Masters Tribute, it honours the overlooked design objects of the last century - the solid, softened, in its most literal form.

One idea, several houses

From Italy to the Netherlands and Belgium, Focus 2026 makes the case for a single thread running through very different materials and makers. It is the same instinct Tollgard brings to every project: finding the röda tråden, the creative DNA, at the point where environment, architecture and identity meet.

We look forward to welcoming you to the showroom soon.

It's always such a pleasure to see our partner brands featured in print! November's issue of Homes & Gardens featured the charming and charismatic Théros Ceramic Edition Small light by Studio Aristotelis Barakos.

Studio Aristotelis Barakos brings together storytelling and craftsmanship, merging modern elegance with a respect for heritage. Collaborating with a network of skilled artisans, each piece is handmade from carefully chosen, high-quality materials, designed to achieve enduring beauty. Based on the concept of the Théros family of lighting objects, ceramicist Giannis Zois was commissioned to reinterpret the lighting objects using materials and techniques of his own craft.

‍

‍

‍

The lamps' sweet figures evoke in all their simplicity the image of a person in the sun, narrating a timeless story of peaceful holidays basking in soothing, milky sunlight. The deep red colour of the ceramic bases is a reference to terracotta, a material that is widespread around the Mediterranean, and therefore was a natural addition to the project.

Bieke Casteleyn

Fueled by a vision to redefine the dining experience, Bieke set out to create a table that breaks boundaries and challenges tradition. With its skillfully designed organic contours, Out of Line soon became an icon of Belgian refinement and craftsmanship. One that has been translated into a carefully considered collection of functional objects. We welcome a selection of unique new pieces to our showroom this spring, each with a natural and imperfect character.

OKHA

OKHA is a boutique furniture design studio based in Cape Town. Recognised for its exploration of organic form, texture and noble materiality, OKHA’s aesthetic inspiration echoes African topography, terrain, and iconography in designs that are a hallmark of Creative Director, Adam Court’s vision for an abstracted or sculptural interpretation of Africa’s natural order. The Cut Forms Side table is a bright and beguiling addition to OKHA’s side table collection.

Bocci

Bocci is a multidisciplinary design studio, research lab, and factory built around the core design principles of Omer Arbel. As makers, Bocci push the boundaries of design through experimentation and research. Unforeseen outcomes are at the heart of their process, embracing the beauty of unpredictability. This spring we welcome a selection of new beautiful designs to the showroom, which explore innovation and natural beauty.

Giopato & Coombes

Architects and designers Giopato & Coombes are known for their bold, ambitious approach to design. Their boundless creativity is evident in every fixture, transforming marble, brass, and glass into extraordinary works of art. Through material and technical innovation—including 3D printing and aeronautical-grade stainless steel—their designs achieve an ethereal, floating quality. We’re delighted to welcome some of their latest creations to our showroom, including the exquisite Maehwa Chandelier.

Giorgetti

Another new addition to the Tollgard showroom, Tollgard & Castellani’s exclusive first works for fine furniture maker, Giorgetti. The Chanterelle collection of low tables evokes the graceful upward flow of the forest gold from which they take their name. A slender base balances a generous top, expressing lightness through equilibrium. An iconic, contemporary, and rigorous design finds form in Giorgetti’s masterful hands.

Alabastro Italiano

After years of experience in the family business, which specialises in design and lighting, Riccardo and Alberto Ongarato found the brand Alabastro Italiano. Each project is conceived and designed to give a strong sign of recognizsability and uniqueness. The Aura is a unique pendant light made from alabaster, and inspired by the idea of wind, a whirlwind emblematic of its circularity in perpetual motion.
