Toogood's Bread side table embodies the interplay of everyday life and art with a creative and playful design. Inspired by the pillars of happiness - bread and butter - this collection brings the studio's experimental spirit into your living spaces. Made from high-quality ash wood, the surface highlights the natural grain, while the gently primrose-toned maple inlay creates a visual effect reminiscent of freshly buttered bread. Ideal as a stylish highlight in your home, the table harmoniously blends into various interior styles while also adding a unique accent.

Further description and details

This side table fascinates with its analogy to freshly baked bread – a poetic connection of form and material. The construction of solid, walnut-stained ash creates the characteristic dark "crust," while a light maple inlay in the tabletop is reminiscent of the inside of a buttered bread roll. Organic, flowing contours meet Italian craftsmanship and precise workmanship. A piece of furniture that subtly unites nature and artistry.

Design Faye Toogood

Faye Toogood, like few other designers, stands at the intersection of craftsmanship, architectural documentation, and artistic reflection. Her work stems from an unmistakable sense of material-based poetry, functional clarity, and a deep connection to the history of furniture making, while simultaneously boldly charting new paths. Through research, sketching, and experimental modular construction, she creates spaces and objects that are both captivatingly stark and sensuously appealing.

What distinguishes Toogood's work is her ability to tell stories – from the skilled handling of ancient materials like wood, metal, or textiles to contemporary forms of expression that dominate spaces with character rather than consumption. Her designs often seem to come directly from a noted idea, a sketchbook, or an archaeological excavation: raw, honest, full of potential. At the same time, they resonate as thoughtful, precise, and culturally reflected, so that each piece possesses a clear, unique identity while still communicating with its surroundings.

Toogood's design practice is characterized by an open, inquisitive spirit: she works across disciplines, combining fashion, art, craft, and architecture into a coherent whole. Her collections reveal a preference for robust materials, spontaneous forms, and subtle cross-references to historical designs, without succumbing to nostalgia. Instead, she generates new meanings by deliberately staging contrasts – rough vs. refined, massive vs. light, traditional vs. contemporary.

In her engagement with textures, proportions, and spatial impact, Toogood reminds us that design is more than function: it is a way to create atmosphere, tell stories, and inspire people. Her work invites us not just to own furniture, but to experience it; not just to use spaces, but to feel them.

Faye Toogood remains a prominent voice in the contemporary design landscape: courageous, nuanced, fearless in her curiosity, yet sensitive to context, materials, and environment. She shapes a design language that sharpens both sight and sense – an enduring invitation to create spaces with dignity, wit, and warmth.
