Not often does furniture actually make you dribble, but the images on Al Que Quiere’s stylish site had half the editorial team open-mouthed and more hypnotised than the Podlings in The Dark Cyrstal. Drawing influences from the Doric pillars of ancient Greece, this Los Angeles furniture and object-making collective have some of the most original and mystically beautiful pieces we’ve seen for a long time. No detail spared, even their info page, which can notoriously be quite lifeless, is genuinely engaging and fascinating. Bravo, Al Que Quiere! Bravo. Beware though, Prices on request.
