The design world moves quickly, and sometimes exceptional pieces can slip past us without the attention they deserve. This week we highlight a selection of works that reward a closer look. Each one carries thoughtful detailing, strong material presence, and a clear point of view.  GA-2 Gunnar Asplund Gunnar Asplund, known as Sweden's "artist architect," designed the GA-2 Chair in 1931. Advanced for its time, the forward-looking shape and use of industrial elements give this chair a cutting-edge look that makes it relevant in today's interiors. The armchair is available with a chromed or painted steel frame and features a solid birch base and seat with hand-braided coil springs. Upholstered in fabric or luxurious leather options. CABINET 250 Alvar Aalto Cabinet 250, often referred to as the "Cocktail Cabinet", returns to the standard Artek collection. Designed by Alvar Aalto with creative contributions from Aino Aalto, this 1930s cabinet carries the warmth of birch veneer and the clarity of Aalto’s signature proportions. The interior shelving makes it suitable for small bar setups or compact storage. It is one of those archival pieces that can feel fresh when rediscovered, and brings quiet character to any room. ZENSO HIGH LOUNGE Formstelle Zenso High Lounge is a study in relaxed posture and upright support. The tall back creates a protective shape while the gently curved seat encourages the body to settle. Formstelle’s design relies on clear geometry and careful upholstery that keeps the silhouette refined. It is a chair that performs beautifully in quiet corners, reading niches, or any place where comfort benefits from a defined outline. MUSUBI Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec The Musubi Armchair from Koyori showcases expert woodworking and a refined sense of proportion. Designed by Ronan & Erwan Bouroullec, the chair’s name refers to the act of tying, and this idea is expressed through the chair’s gently intersecting backrest and arm elements. Crafted from solid beech, oak, or black oak, Musubi works well in spaces where a lighter touch is needed, and it offers a refined alternative to more familiar contemporary dining or side chairs. BOND COFFEE TABLE Märta Friman Märta Friman’s Bond Coffee Table deserves attention for its clarity of form and honest use of materials. The round top, available in oak veneer or white laminate, rests on a solid oak base that is sculpted with gentle precision. Two height options allow the table to work independently or in a paired composition. Bond is a quiet piece with strong versatility, ideal for settings that appreciate a Scandinavian sensibility.
