The global, members-only phenomenon that is Soho House comprises a number of exceptional, design-led properties in major cities around the world. It is a brand renowned for the unique environments it creates, offering rest and comfort as well as meeting, working and entertaining spaces to its community of creatives.
And while we might not have our own Soho House here, tapping into its vibe has never been easier, thanks to the much-anticipated arrival of Soho Home in New Zealand. Available for the first time ever, exclusively from Design Central, design lovers can choose pieces from the brand’s luxurious furniture, lighting, textiles and dining accessories, allowing you to mirror the look and feel of Soho House’s international establishments, and infuse your spaces with some of the same kind of intangible magic.
Here, we round up some of our picks from the exceptional new Soho Home pieces to have just landed at Design Central.
Boasting a beautifully-curved shape inspired by mid-century Italian design and a cotton velvet cover in a deep cinnamon colour, the Lovett Chair promises to be a standout piece in any space. Taking inspiration from the Soho House’s Ludlow House in Manhattan, this chair is as comfortable to sit in as it is enchanting to look at.
Inspired by pieces found at Soho House’s original location on London’s Greek Street, the Swift Side Table boasts a sturdy, minimal profile, with an eye-catching, green marble top and a sturdy metal frame that will suit both modern and traditional interiors.
Cut from natural red marble with distinctive veining, the Alma Vase has been made to mirror the marble decor seen in 180 House in London and is the perfect addition to any bookshelf, table or sideboard.
Mirroring the kinds of styles you might find at Soho House’s Hong Kong chapter, the Oxley Coffee Table is a statement piece that demands attention. Made from dark emperador marble characterised by dark brown tones and white veining, this piece is the perfect anchor for any space.
The perfect addition to any bookshelf, the Prato Bookends are made from Rosso Le Vanto marble (renowned for its incredible, deep-cherry tones and white veining) and boast a clean, right-angle structure broken only by the spheres in the corners.
Destined to add drama to your space, the Juliana Chandelier is carefully crafted from Venetian Glass, and is reminiscent of the similar designs hanging at Soho House’s Dumbo House. The chandelier features dozens of rose-tinted, scalloped glass tubular sections which have each been mouth-blown and hand finished to spectacular effect in Venice.
Another piece inspired by the natural stone motifs at 180 House in London, the Tisbury Coffee Table is crafted from Fantasy brown marble (an Indian stone that is more durable than traditional white marble) and boasts three sturdy, cylindrical legs that give it a compelling, sculptural quality.
Taking style cues from Soho House Rome, the Marcel Media Unit is crafted from solid oak and is defined by sharp edges and square-cut ridges that deliver a unique, geometrical design. Fitted with two cupboards, this is the perfect piece on which to perch your TV or hide away tchotchkes or books.
Transporting us to Soho House’s White City House in London, the Kyoto Chandelier speaks to a more minimalist, Japanese-style aesthetic. Here, a muted palette has been employed via its soft, oatmeal-tone shade crafted from white linen.
An essential piece for anyone who loves to host at home, the Jermyn Chopping Board and Knife presents as a stunning set. Hand cut in India from weighty, forest-green marble, the rounded oval shape of the board is reflected in the handle of the knife, which has then been finished with a brushed-brass blade.
