In just its second year, Katherine Morley, Erin McCutcheon and Ange-line Tetrault’s female-designer focused show has already become a must-stop on the Design Week circuit. Here are five favourite products making their debuts at Capacity.
1. For extra-organized fashion types, Heidi Earnshaw creates a white oak dresser with seven drawers for filing a week’s wardrobe.
2. If your dinner guests are prone to bringing along unexpected plus-ones, Katrina Tompkins’s (see designer profile, page 26) walnut chair is just for you. The single-seater folds open to become a spot for two.
3. All porcelain teapots don’t have to look perfectly proper. Krystal Speck switches up the traditional ceramic vessel’s form and function.
4. Morley’s own Capacity entry is a series of lamps and vases made out of duck, goose, chicken and turkey eggshells.
5. Inspired by the shape of brass bicycle bells, Suzanne Carlsen crafts this pretty pin cushion.
