The Spine Quilt from MatterMade is as much a work of art as it is a functional blanket. The quilt includes carefully placed, digitally printed graphic fabric over an organic cotton base with a machine-stitched overlay for added texture. Centered along a vertical column, the quilt’s design resembles a spine and ribs, although it is artfully abstracted. The quilt can be used as a blanket or as a wall hanging, and is a statement-making gift for a textile or art enthusiast.
The Segal Coffee Table was designed for someone that appreciates thoughtful organization—it features a lower shelf that can be used for storing books, magazines, and other objects, without adding clutter to the tabletop.

The seasonal change probably means more inside time, and we think there’s no better way to pass the time than to play a classic game with family members and friends. This chess set came out of a lifelong friendship with chess enthusiast friends Marcel Duchamp and Man Ray.

The Albers Stool was originally designed as a sitting stool for the Josef and Anni Albers foundation gallery. The stool features a contrasting wood inlay for a refined aesthetic, and it can easily be used as a side table or as extra seating. Poritz has also designed the stool as a barstool, available in Frijolillo and Nogal woods.
