We’re thrilled to welcome the new V4 Kitchen from Vipp to our Belgravia showroom - and trust us, it’s worth seeing up close.

With the V4, Vipp reimagines the kitchen as the true heart of the home: where timeless design meets honest materials and durability that doesn’t flinch at real life. Think beautifully engineered steel, tactile surfaces, and craftsmanship that’s built not just to impress, but to endure.

With more than eight decades of experience in metal craftsmanship, Vipp has designed the V4 to age gracefully and take daily wear in its stride, made for years of cooking, clattering, gathering and living. This isn’t just a kitchen, it’s a steadfast companion to everyday life, wrapped in very good design.

Softened corners, a worktop folded from a single sheet of steel, and welds so precise they practically disappear - it’s the kind of metal mastery Vipp has quietly perfected over decades. Sculptural yet unfussy, seamless yet strong, the rounded profiles bring a touch of softness to the steel, proving that great craftsmanship doesn’t shout - it simply shines!

Four kitchens, one modular concept

Since 1939, every new Vipp product has been born from the same dream; to manufacture long-lasting tools for everyday life.

Vipp kitchens are no different. At its heart, the Vipp kitchen is a modular concept - a series of precisely engineered units designed to slot together seamlessly. Flexible, functional and beautifully resolved, it’s a kitchen that adapts to the rhythm of daily life while holding its own as a piece of enduring design.

Discover the full collection of Vipp kitchens.

Here, light doesn’t just illuminate, it measures distance, traces movement and tests the elasticity of perception.

Another feature for Studio Aristotelis Barakos. The latest edition of Elle Decoration sees Aristotelis Barakos highlighted, amongst other design stars such as Thomas Heatherwick, as the focus is on distinct, atmospheric lighting.

Lighting plays a major role in creating character within a space. As ELLE outlines in the article, it's in these winter months that lighting becomes the star of the show and everyone scrambles to find the perfect glow. It's because of the instrumental impact that lighting has, that Tollgard only partners with brands that embody a true passion for creating artisan, high quality and something a bit out of the ordinary, so it's no wonder that Studio Aristotelis Barakos is one of our favourite brands.

The article touches on Barakos' unassuming journey into the lighting design industry, to the Studio's partnership with Tollgard. However, the main spotlight is on the unparallel quality and fostering of craftsmanship that Barakos instils in his studio.

Tying together the exclusive UK launch of Man of Parts, featuring some of the most recent and innovative pieces from A-N-D, Indigenus and Rakumba, a collection of Peter Weber's iconic art works will be on display. Weber's work further transforms the Tollgard, Belgravia showroom into an enchanting world of sculptural elegance and tactile storytelling.

Explore these masterful pieces in person, being completely transported into an art and design haven and come visit the pop-up at our Belgravia showroom from the 12th September to 18th December.

Discover more about the artist and his process below.

Peter Weber was born in 1944 in Kollmar/Elbe, Germany. He lives and works near Munich, Germany and in Vignale / Monferrato, Italy

Work in Progress, Peter Weber

"The folding material is transformed from a flat surface into a three-dimensional, architectonic structure, which, when unfolded, glides back into a flat relief. It is the idea of wholeness that fascinates and entices me to persevere to the limits of what is technically feasible in order to resolve the problems connected with the complex structure.”

Area Penetration, Peter Weber

Using the most varied techniques and materials, Peter Weber has developed a system for folding the entire surface of a single piece of material without cutting it. His folded works of undyed or dyed felt, which has been Weber’s dominant material since 2001, exhibit a strong materiality. Discover more about the artist and his process below.

The pieces in this show called “Vernetzung” show clearly how complex a pure folding is. In addition to felt and paper, Weber also uses materials such as handmade paper, canvas, cotton, high-dense polyethylene and even steel. In late 2017, he created his first folded steel reliefs.

Triptych Triangle, Pentagon, Square, Peter Weber

Weber's work, perfectly ties together and echoes the collection of furniture that will be on display throughout the exclusive UK launch of Man of Parts. From Rakumbas, Big Glow, the felted lights made from Australian wool and plant-based compostable fibre, reflecting Weber's use of soft materials, to Man of Parts' Via Bernina Round table, which mimics the strong graphic forms which Weber's work transforms into.

See Peter Weber's mesmirising artwork, along with MAN of PARTS' exclusive UK show case at the Tollgard Belgravia showroom from 12th September - 18th December.

In addition to Tollgard's upcoming, exclusive UK launch of MAN of PARTS, where a world of sculptural elegance and tactile storytelling will be in store, the Tollgard space will be further enhanced, by exhibiting some of the most recent and innovative pieces from A-N-D, Indigenus and Rakumba.

This pop up exhibition, will be curated at Tollgard's Belgravia showroom from 12th September - 18th December.

Delve further into the ingenuity of these brands and be sure to come visit us at our Belgravia showroom to experience these designs come to life.

A-N-D


A-N-D investigates new design possibilities using innovative production methods while integrating the most current technologies in lighting. The result of that exploration puts forward honest products that transcend time and place. In pursuit of the visually poetic, they are inspired by the unexpected and the everyday; compelled by the capacity of light to shape and animate space.

Pace Pendant by A-N-D

Pace is derived from the notion of rhythm, tempo, and repetition. The interplay of light and material is evident in the gradients and reflections which occur as illumination passes through its consecutive layers of glass. Thin and lightweight yet voluptuous and stackable, the Pace series is an exemplary exercise of sinuous form. This piece will be on display throughout the full duration of the exhibition.

Indigenus


Each one of Indigenus’ creations is meticulously crafted – smooth, clean lines are drawn from raw, honest materials of hardwood, cork and concrete. A recognisable aesthetic runs through each collection created by Indigenus. Designs are strikingly pared-back and restrained, with bold, simple silhouettes contrasting against tactility and earthiness. Underpinned by a deep knowledge of both landscape design and plant care and maintenance, Indigenus’ planters are not only aesthetically uplifting, they are also crafted to be lightweight and easily transportable, with removable linings and water reservoirs to ensure they function beautifully too.

Aarde & Petra by Indigenus

The Petra has proven to be the most complex design to bring to life. It is eclectic, pushing the boundaries of what Indigenus has previously created. The result is a far more demanding aesthetic and ultimately a disruptive design for a planter. Petra is designed for interiors, exteriors, hospitality, residential, and corporate settings. It works well as individual statement pieces and is striking when grouped.

Sebastian Herkner, was inspired by all the aspects, elements and shades he encountered across so many areas. The Aarde (which means earth) is a representation of this; of the layering that exists culturally, demographically and in the nature and light of Africa.

This piece will be on display throughout the full duration of the exhibition.

Rakumba

From an engineering viewpoint, Rakumba describes its design ethos as ‘effortless complexity’. Under the skin, they strive for products that are technically advanced and bring unexpected performance, whilst remaining intuitive, meticulously detailed and visually uncompromising.

Big Glow by Rakumba

Designed by Studio Truly Truly for Rakumba, Big Glow redefines lighting for the modern era. Its groundbreaking design marries luxurious Australian wool with plant-based compostable fibre, creating a luminaire that’s as eco-friendly as it is beautiful. Supported by Woolmark, this innovative collection showcases the versatility of wool whilst elevating the archetypal glowing sphere.

See these beautiful pieces come to life, along with MAN of PARTS' exclusive UK show case at the Tollgard Belgravia showroom from 12th September - 18th December.

Tollgard is proud to share some of our favourite pieces that will be on sale, in our upcoming Summer Outlet Sale. Taking place from the 28th July - 8th August. This sale will feature pieces ranging from Finn Juhl's icon 'Cheiftain Chair,' which is the pinnacle of Danish design, to De Castelli's dream-like 'Painting' theatre curtain. Read more about some of our favourite brands on offer at our Outlet Sale below and be sure to come visit us at our Belgravia showroom.

1. Ceccotti Cellezioni:

Based in a small Italian town nestled between Pisa and Florence, the Ceccotti workshops draw the most skilled artisans from the local ‘School of Art’ and hone their craft. Ceccotti Collezioni creates exquisitely made beds, tables, chairs, desks, shelving and lighting that is unmistakably special and is the definition of luxury Italian furniture. Ceccotti's vision is to offer an original point of view, anticipating the shapes of the future to give character to homes, offices and inhabited spaces worldwide.

Pedestal Table designer by Roberto Lazzeroni for Ceccotti Collezioni

The pedestal table is a handcrafted coffee table designed for elegant and modern living rooms. The frame is made of solid ash wood in various finishes, embellished by a handcrafted gouge work. In our Summer Outlet Sale, we have pieces ranging from these elegant Pedestal Tables (featured above), to their T-Bone cushioned chairs and Vossia Mid Desk Chair.

2. Finn Juhl

Today, the House of Finn Juhl by OneCollection exclusively manufactures his sculptural and iconic furniture. More than 40 of his classic masterpieces are crafted to the most exacting standards, with the utmost respect for their original heritage. Finn Juhl prides itself on upholding the highest standards of craftsmanship which is reflected in the fact that, for a few select models that require special expertise, the designers at Finn Julh collaborate with a Japanese joinery with whom they have had a longstanding and close partnership.

Chieftain Chair by Finn Juhl

Among the pieces available at Tollgard's Summer Outlet Sale is the Chieftain chair. This is one of the designer’s most celebrated pieces, designed at the peak of his career. When it was presented in 1949, it marked a renewal of Danish furniture design. Today, it is perceived as one of the most important exponents of the Danish Modern movement in the US during the 1950s. Inspired by modern art and foreign cultures, the Chieftain Chair with its organic shapes, liberated itself from traditional Danish furniture design and strict functionalism in both shape, construction and materials.

3. Gabriel Scott

Gabriel Scott pride themselves on blending exceptional craftsmanship with innovative design principles, ensuring every piece reflects their commitment to quality and artistry. Bearing all the design hallmarks and handwriting of their custom work, the collection features furniture and lighting that is conceived and produced entirely in-house, by a close-knit team of designers, engineers and manufacturers in Montreal, Canada. Their designs, striking and contemporary, draw on artisanal materials and often industrial techniques to great effect; balancing character and hand-made charm with a self-assured sophistication that attests to the pair’s industry experience.

Luna Sconce with Glass Beads by Gabriel Scott

Luxurious and elegant, the Luna Sconce with Beads is handmade using an alabaster white glass tube and mouth-blown glass beads. Diffusing a warm glow, the luxury wall light is the perfect addition to a residential, hospitality or commercial environment. A lighting system with infinite interpretations, the Luna is a synergy of colour, shape and refracted light, inspired by a lunar halo. This along with the graphic and geometric Harlow Chandelier by Gabriel Scott is available in store at our Belgravia showroom.

4. Vipp

A byword for the best in Danish industrial design, the world of Vipp presents a vast and exciting contemporary collection. This library includes elegantly minimal furniture, lighting, kitchen and accessories. Founder and skilled metal smith Holger Nielsen laid the foundations of the brand in 1932 and even though it has since grown into a global brand, Vipp is still family owned and operated with Holger’s daughter, Jette Egelund, and grandchildren, Kasper and Sofie, continuing to adhere to the brand’s founding principles.

Sculpture Table Lamp & Chimney Cab

The Chimney Cabinet is made to provide functionality, while also being a stylish piece in itself. Perfectly matched, the Vipp Sculpture Table Lamp is ideal as decorative lighting, suitable for the living room or bedroom. Both designs are available at the Summer Outlet Sale, whether used together to build a sophisticated, contemporary space or separately as elegant statement pieces.

5. Tacchini

In 1967, the Tacchini family began their journey of design. Nestled between Como and Milan, they called Brianza home. Rooted in the magic of an idea, this family of Italian furniture-makers continues to excite architects, designers and creatives across the globe with its unique perspective. Each of their talented artisans continues to refine their skills and preserve ancient techniques honed over generations. Working with the creators of new and future design classics, Tacchini’s works offer a dialogue with imaginative and dynamic design. Throughout their works, Tacchini presents a sense of perspective and engagement, ensuring each design works in unison with its environment.

Julep Armchair by Tacchini

The playful Julep Armchair is influenced by the 1950s Avant-Garde movement, drawing upon its simplicity and grandeur, refined by a contemporary, romantic, feminine allure. Fully upholstered, the seats look ample and full, yet convey a sense of lightness, thanks to the recessed base that invisibly lifts them off the floor. Designed for home décor, their inviting appeal encourages cosy comfort and relaxation, making the Julep seating options also ideally suited to contract venues.

Discover more from these brands and many others at our Summer Outlet Sale from 28th July - 8 Augusrt 2025, 9am - 6pm.
