3. Roberto Lazzeroni for Lema

Product: Orion
Standout: Both fun and functional, this versatile coffee table has a sturdy lacquered-MDF top with a slight circular recess holding a painted-metal tray ideal for corralling decorative objets d’art.

4. Cristina Celestino for Gervasoni

6. Luca Nichetto for Ethimo

Product: Canto
Standout: The modular seating system by the cofounders of Valencia, Spain, studio Mut Design was inspired by (and has the look of) carved stone blocks—but boasts all the soft, cosseting comfort of upholstered furniture.

Standout: The brand creative director celebrates the company’s 90th anniversary with new innovations that include a glossy indoor/outdoor side table crafted entirely of ceramic and named for a resilient Arctic evergreen spruce.
