At IHFC, I’ll be stopping by Co.House Design to see their debut collection with AD PRO Directory firm Button Atelier, incorporating reclaimed finishes and bullnose edges into its old world-inspired furniture, lighting, rugs, and vases. A few floors up, designer Leanne Ford joins the good company of Jeremiah Brent, Brigette Romanek, and Carrier & Company as the latest Loloi collaborator. Comprising more than 25 rugs and pillows, the garden-derived designs layer natural jute and thick-cut wool in a cultivated palette of moss, bark, rose, and smoke. Elsewhere in the building, Chicago-based AD PRO Directory practice Park & Oak lends its refined heritage perspective to a mirror collection for Cooper Classics, while Detroit-based home brand Regina Andrew dips into its vast materials library and doubles-down on statement marbles, whipstitched leather, and studded nickel for this season’s lighting intros.
Across the street at Showplace, Four Hands’ whole-home collaboration with Amber Lewis has consistently impressed me with its European sensibilities, elegant silhouettes, and effortless mixed materials. Lewis adds to her collection this season, coinciding with the manufacturer announcing its new made-to-order upholstery program.
After skipping the Caracole showroom at the Markor Art Center for a few seasons (there are only so many hours in a Market trip!), I paid a visit to the building this spring and was pleasantly surprised. The showroom settings were some of the most compelling that I’ve seen at Market, ranging from delectably color-drenched to polished and poised. I’m looking forward to seeing what the label has in store.

Designer Amanda Lindroth’s 8.5-foot-tall rattan canopy bed may be my most anticipated launch at Fall Market. The fretwork-framed piece—back by popular demand courtesy of Lindroth’s new partnership with Chelsea House—numbers among the collection’s 40-plus pieces of furniture, lighting, and accessories in rattan, bamboo, and caning. For the last few seasons, Wildwood has highlighted its stable of artisans by favoring small-batch launches that encourage region-specific craftsmanship. Spring of ’24 brought us the striking Shiga collection of Japanese stoneware table lamps, followed by last season’s stunning Italia collection, featuring hand-sculpted ceramics and mouth-blown Italian glass fixtures. This fall, the manufacturer adds 30 new pieces to the line, promising deeper forays into glazed ceramics and impruneta terracotta.
At 200 Steele, AD PRO Directory designer Benjamin Johnston welcomes nine new pieces to his stylishly versatile line at Chaddock, which will also be unveiling a quick-ship program with a choice of 70 in-stock fabrics. And AD100 designer Corey Damen Jenkins adds to the sophisticated seating in his Hancock & Moore collection. I loved the ram’s horn motifs, animalistic chair legs, and brass horsehead handrests in the original series and look forward to seeing what Jenkins spawns this season. Nearby, AD PRO Directory designer Adriana Hoyos introduces her label’s largest collection to date with the Origen collection, 30-plus pieces of furniture featuring the designer’s signature quilted leather upholstery and comfortably modern POV.
