Buzz: Canvas Launches Website

Filed under: Your Home, Design, etc, News & Trends, Furniture

Now you can buy your favorite Canvas pieces online.

New York City's design aficionados have been heading to SoHo for drool-worthy homewares with a simple, organic feel since 2006 when Harriet Maxwell Macdonald and Andrew Corrie opened Ochre. The shop's global wares include Christiane Perrochon and Daniel Smith ceramics, Kirsten Hecktermann cushions and throws, and Miller Harris fragrances.

In 2009, Andrew Corrie decided to take his vision and create a line of products in keeping with the Ochre aesthetic and Canvas was born. The line made an instant splash in the design community for its artisan-made quality, natural style and versatile color palette. Canvas wares have been gracing the rooms of stylish homes and pages of design magazines ever since.

Today, Canvas lovers can browse the company's wares and shop online at the newly launched CanvasHomeStore.com, an online shop housing all the lovely Canvas goodies. We checked out the site, and it's almost as good as a visit to the store itself. Here are some of the amazing items we saw:

We're crazy for all of the Canvas line, but some of our favorite items include the Corkscrew Collection of solid wood tables and stools, ($340 to $670), and the perfectly simple Mila Hanging Pendant Lamps ($198 each).


Ceramics are another staple of the Canvas line, with a hand-thrown dining set and pitcher by ceramicist Judy Jackson, organically-shaped Belgian plates and bowls, and a simple bistro collection of dinnerware and serving platters.



If money were no object, we'd immediately kick our IKEA dining table to the street and replace it with Canvas's minimally elegant Wooden Trestle Table ($1220), but for now, we'll save our pennies.



Canvas's selection of textiles reflects the company's love of craft and artistry from around the world. The company's cotton Indian Blankets ($115) and their hand-woven Kantha Quilted Blanket ($220) would both be great summer bedspreads.
