Blu Dot is all about smart, modern design that’s as thoughtful as it is beautiful. Every piece they create is designed with real life in mind—how we live, how we work, and how we move through our spaces. Their furniture doesn’t just look good—it serves a purpose, has personality, and is built to last.
What really sets Blu Dot apart is their commitment to sustainability. They’re constantly rethinking materials, refining their processes, and holding themselves to high standards—because good design should be good for everyone, including the planet. With a long-term focus and a whole lot of heart, Blu Dot continues to create designs that feel as good as they look

We’ve had a longtime love for Umbra—we were actually their very first customer when they launched in 1979! Since then, they’ve grown into a global brand, all while staying true to their Toronto roots and their mission to make modern design accessible to everyone.
Umbra is known for reimagining the everyday—think wastebaskets, kitchen tools, bath accessories—and turning them into pieces that are functional, stylish, and a joy to use. Their commitment to affordability means you don’t have to spend a fortune to surround yourself with great design. Plus, we especially admire their dedication to supporting young Canadian designers and bringing fresh ideas to life.
