Sebastian Wrong Carpet and Tiles by Sebastian Wrong, produced by Fletco Carpet Tiles A/S.

Milan saw the launch of wrong.london, an offshoot of HAY that's run by creative director Sebastian Wrong. The lighting-focused division released these veneered-oak lampshades, dubbed 30degree, among other designs.

Over in St James's Park, the highly anticipated collaboration between London-based designer Sebastian Wrong and Danish design brand HAY is on display inside an ornately decorated Georgian townhouse. The opulent interiors provide the perfect contrast for the collection's sleek and contemporary lines.

Hackney Sofa by Wrong for Hay The real magic of this wood-frame, foam-stuffed sofa comes to the fore when you’re moving: It breaks down and packs flat to make navigating narrow doorways and stairwells a cinch.

The Spun Table Lamp ($995-$1,195)—designed by Sebastian Wrong for Flos—comes in a variety of sizes and finishes, including the polished aluminum seen here. Made it Italy, it features a 0-100 percent dimmer that gives you ultimate control over of illumination.

Sebastian Wrong's font clock for Established & Sons symbolizes to a tee the era of design since 2000. We're living in an internet age in which typography has become a part of pop culture no longer relevated to kerning-happy designers. The Font Clock isn't terribly expensive, and it's quirky yet massively appealing.

Ingeniously imagined by product designer Gaspard Tiné-Berès, the Re-Done Appliances project consists of a coffee maker, toaster, and kettle made entirely of cork, borosilicate, and electrical components. The Paris-based designer envisioned "a system that would bring together concepts such as, local manufacturing, re-skilling of European labour, and up-cycling, in order to produce a range of electrical devices with a new aesthetic and extended life, that could be made with simple and low cost tooling solutions."

London-based Sebastian Wrong’s Studio Chair is made of acrylic paint and ash. At Qubique, the co-founder of Established & Sons will launch his new personal venture, "The Wrong Shop," with a charity auction.

HAY's pop-up with Wrong for HAY, by British designer Sebastian Wrong, was the toast of the town. They installed a mini-market for cash-and-carry purposes (props to the Nathalie du Pasquier tote bags) and showed a few upcoming pieces, including modular shelving and a series of household goods by Shane Schneck.

Here's IM Pei's Meyerson Symphony Center done up for the holidays.

In the kids’ room, Jack climbs the bunk bed he shares with his little brother, James. The paintings on the wall were done by their mom.

Kevin Conger, project director and principal at CMG, shows how it's done.

Lucky Diaz spent three and a half months on this project, working all hours to get it done. “It was worth it,” he says. “To have Ella grow up in an original space is a gift that is beyond measure.”

The mid-section of the siding was done in a shou-sugi ban method. Custom brass was used for the awning, alongside a standing-seam metal roof.

Danish brand HAY delved into Memphis designer Nathalie Du Pasquier's archive to reissue a series of printed cotton textiles as part of its "Wrong for HAY" collection. Shown here is Sebastian Wrong's "Curve" chair upholstered in a blue, green, white, and black pattern called "Ice".

The custom steelwork seen throughout the home was all done by Identity Construction, including the bar in the loft space that overlooks the living area.

Rather than a lush garden, the architect opted for a singular green expression. This was done by planting a sole Caesalpinia ferra tree at the atrium - a natural sculptural at the heart of the home.

The overall home is constructed with larch timber, a British wood, and features a central ridge beam that gives it a butterfly-shaped roof. Shou sugi ban was done on the wood to give it a charred finish.

Homeowner Jay Longtin served as the general contractor and performed the majority of the remodel work, aside from the outdoor floors, concrete, and pool, which were done by Architectural Blue.

The charred-wood facade on Silping Wong and Jon Friesen’s house in western Canada was hand-done by Jon and his father. They used Douglas fir, a thick, corky wood that is local to the region.

Among those in the audience (and among the designers celebrated that evening): Sebastian Wrong, of Established & Sons.

“Everything out here has been something else,” designer Barbara Hill says of Marfa, Texas. It’s certainly true of her casita, which was formerly a grocery store: The 1,200-square-foot home is filled with reworked pieces, including the Elvis artwork she embellished with pink lights fabricated by the Neon Gallery in Houston and the refurbished Bertoia chairs from Cast + Crew. The minimal color palette is echoed in the freestanding Malm fireplace and the concrete floor sculptures by William Vizcarra from Wrong Marfa.

In the kitchen, minimalism prevails. Jared notes that the use of plywood was loosely inspired by design seen in the 1960s Sonoma County Sea Ranch community. "It's something that one of my heroes, [architect] Barbara Bestor has done very well," he says.

"Most of the carpentry built-ins were done out of plywood with birch veneer, chosen for its very raw finish and inexpensiveness," says Amanda. "For more structural items like the adaptable bed platform, we used Baltic birch instead for its superior structure and planarity."

Here are a few others stamps that I have done. Strangely, they’re all flora or fast food. Hrm.

All the metalwork was done by Kin & Company.

Black accent pieces create the illusion of a black and white kitchen in the home of San Francisco architect Cass Calder Smith. A black reading nook coordinates perfectly with the stainless steel countertops and white cabinetry.
