Designed by Giulio Cappellini, the Bong Table is a round coffee or side table that is made of a matte-finished fiberglass. The beautiful piece is almost a perfect sphere—the bottom is slightly truncated so that it rests flat on the floor, and the top is cut to create a flat surface for a stack of magazines, a cocktail, or—in a pinch—a place to sit. With a faux marble finish, this verion of the table has a sculptural quality.

Isanka occasional pieces by EOOS for Walter Knoll. Austrian design trio EOOS debuted this collection in 2014, and while the objects may seem run-of-the-mill (an upholstered ottoman-meets-table, a basket for periodicals) the materials are the prize. Saddle leather—a supple portion of the cowhide to which we devoted a special portion of our March 2015 issue design issue—joins pure wool, linen, and cotton textiles.

Lauren and Brittan Ellingson, the owners of Notice Snowboards, a custom snowboard and wakesurf company in Whitefish, Montana, approached Workaday Design and builder Mindful Designs to concoct a new lake home for their family. The brief was, perhaps unsurprisingly, focused on getting the family outdoors as much as possible.

The Lofthouse is built one of the many hills separating it from the couple’s main residence. "Excavation was a challenge, as we wanted to maintain as much of the existing landscape as possible, but needed to clear out trees for the foundation," says Tarah.

Parota wood continues in the spacious kitchen. Marisa and Christopher found the blue tile that runs throughout the home on a trip to León, Mexico. "It called out to us," says Christopher. Festooned with small stars, its tone matches the color of the ocean perfectly.

The architects designed the home’s expansion with the knowledge that the owners plan to continue the renovation when their budget allows it. "We wanted to put everything in the right place so it doesn’t have to be undone later," says Corti.

Saddle bar and counter stool by West Elm, from $369 Upholstered chairs offer more cush for your tush but take up more room. It’s 20 inches wide, so you won’t be able to squeeze in as many stools, but those who manage to snag a seat will be rewarded with a plush perch. The back rises 11 inches from the seat (set on a swivel) and offers contoured arm rests. westelm.com

Houston-based designer Barbara Hill is known for a stripped-down aesthetic that blends art-world cachet with Texas modernism. Vitra’s Slow chair sits in front of a powder-coated-steel bookcase made by Hill’s go-to fabricator, George Sacaris; it was originally built for the Houston house.

When architect Antonio Monserrat transformed an old 800-square-foot Brooklyn loft into his new home, he imbued his love of colorful, multifunctional design into an eye-catching renovation. Once used as a bakery in the early 20th century, the postindustrial space came with great bones—original exposed timber beams, 12-foot ceilings and large windows—that Monserrat used as a backdrop for his playful color choices, small-scale studio prototypes, and contemporary furnishings. From the emerald-green entryway with a hot-pink ceiling to the sunshine-yellow Kartell storage pieces, the Spanish architect’s loft beautifully blends creative inspiration with functionality.

At Under, a Snøhetta-designed restaurant balanced on the Norwegian coast, guests dine 16 feet below the ocean’s surface. The tilted concrete tube gives the impression that it’s sliding into the sea. “The idea was to make a tube that would bring people from above sea level down under the sea,” lead architect Rune Grasdal told Dezeen. “That transition is easy to understand, but it’s also the most effective way to do it. It also feels secure, but you don’t feel trapped.” The angle was also designed with the building’s aquatic neighbors in mind. Over time the structure will become part of its environment, acting as an artificial reef. Marine research tools like cameras have been installed outside the restaurant to help scientists learn about the population, behavior, and diversity of the species living in this part of the North Atlantic.
