The new era of art is here!

Ah yes, we all love art to some degree. But are you willing to furnish your entire home with it? The answer is probably no, and that's mostly due to practical reasons—or maybe you just think it's a bit over the top. But I’d like to be the voice of reason. It may take some convincing, but I’m a firm believer that adding even one curated piece of art into your home can completely transform the way you live.

I remember the first time I visited the MET with Ben and his family. It was one of the most magical experiences of my life. Not only was I meeting incredible people for the first time, but I was also surrounded by breathtaking art. I found myself wishing I could live inside that museum. But of course, I can’t—and neither can you. However, we can bring a little art into our homes, so that when we walk past it every day, we feel that childlike excitement and the magic that art provides.

And here's an idea: instead of just adding traditional art, like paintings and sculptures, to your space, what if you added art you could actually interact with? Yes, I’m talking about art furniture. It’s here, it’s having a moment, and I truly believe this trend is here to stay. Functional beauty is an investment, elevating the way we live and evoking positive emotions like nostalgia, joy, love, peace, and so much more. After all, isn't that why people create art in the first place? The way art impacts us is, in itself, a beautiful thing.

With all of this in mind, below (and in the image above) you’ll find a selection of stunning art furniture pieces, along with their makers and/or showrooms that represent the artists. I hope this inspires you to invest in furniture that not only serves a functional purpose, but also brings art and beauty into your home.
