La Nonchalante, Gildas Berthelot
Canadian cabinet builder and visual artist Gildas Berthelot turns organic shapes into works of functional art. His bleached maple La Nonchalante lounge (75 inches by 34 inches by 41 inches) could just as easily recall sun-weathered driftwood found in the Ten Thousand Islands as a crawling cephalopod. Either way, we’re hooked. gildasberthelot.com

With handblown glass and its netted layout, the piece makes you feel like you’re lounging beneath a web of bioluminescent forms.

Newton Golden & Myrtle Limited Edition Table, BocA do Lobo
A dining table laden with golden bubbles may seem like an enormous flight of fancy, but when you consider that life is short and dinner parties can be long, you might as well set the expectations for a fun affair with this whimsical furnishing, reminiscent of the bubbling incoming tide. The base is made of fused gold-plated brass spheres covered in a high-gloss varnish, while the top is no less dazzling thanks to cut circles of myrtle burl veneer. bocadolobo.com
