Does unexpected utility set your heart aflutter? Yeah, we’re right there with you. That’s why so many of our furnishings are designed to go the extra mile – from multitasking to space-saving.

Our Rimini Armoire showcases its versatility as storage for the dining room, as a convenient desk and as a wardrobe.

CHANGING FUNCTIONS

These pieces are like the Renaissance men and women of interior furniture: They can expertly serve different functions, depending on the need at hand. For example, the Dolcetto Secretary Desk brings show-stopping ornate craftsmanship with elegant functionality that even includes a cord management system. When paired with the Dolcetto Hutch, there is no function this duo can’t serve. Our Rimini Multifunction Cabinet is also up to multi-tasking and can be used a bar, bookcase, or even a small home office. Meanwhile, the Isadora Multifunctional Cabinet features a mirrored back, adjustable shelves and a plethora of drawers and cubbies, so it’s primed for storing and serving drinks.

And in terms of dramatic transformations, it doesn’t get much more impressive than our game tables – including Vercelli and Dax – that have a surface for dining as well as one for playing cards, pool or even table tennis.

HIDDEN FEATURES

We love beauties that are made all the more stunning by specialized features. Our Linwood Desk has a lift-up top that converts into a standing work station with ease.

Our Charlowe and Laurel Ultimate Vanities have customized drawers for holding hot styling tools, jewelry and even those tiny tubes of cream that are so easily lost.

With our Thalia Sideboard, no detail is left out; from two velvet-lined drawers, adjustable shelves and a power strip on the back for powering lamps or charging electronics – it’s up for anything.

For the office, the integrated power strip on our Hunter Executive Desk keeps cords wrangled and concealed, while a hinged door provides incognito storage for a desktop computer’s base unit. Pair it with the Hunter Storage Bench for the ultimate office. This bench has two drawers, two pull-out shelves, two adjustable shelves … and a comfortable seat with a cushioned top.

SMART STORAGE

Many occasional seating pieces – including the Clara Storage Vanity Stool, and the Berkeley and Benjamin storage ottomans – likewise maximize their utility. One stylish favorite? The Juliette, which incorporates soft storage pockets for up to 16 pairs of shoes. Other storage solutions that are packed with functionality from top to bottom include the Bradley Barmoire – which has specialized spots for holding bottles, glassware and bar accessories – and the Loren Jewelry Cabinet, which provides row after row of velvet-lined drawers as well as side compartments for hanging necklaces.

With thoughtful features like these, furniture becomes all the more attractive, inside and out. For more beautiful utility, read our post about multifunctional outdoor furniture.
