A New Collection By a Dream Team of Canadian Designers

When we introduced you last month to Thom Fougere, creative director of the Canadian furniture brand EQ3, we had no idea this was coming down the pike: At next week’s Toronto Interior Design Show, the brand will launch Assembly, a capsule furniture and accessories collection featuring designs by 10 of Canada’s most exciting emerging designers, including Fougere himself, MSDS (who we featured last year) and Sight Unseen OFFSITE alum Zoë Mowat (whose beautiful geometric dressing table can be seen above). We always get excited for lines like these, which tend include a mix of our favorite designers as well as introducing us to never before-seen talents, but this one is even more impressive for the quality of work on display. I mean, let’s say it again: THAT DRESSING TABLE. We got a sneak peek at the first five designs in the collection, with five more designers being announced next week at the start of IDS16.
