New for Design Month
We are thrilled to share our new range of design pieces from Japan!
Mushroom Stool by Yamanaka Design Office
This award-winning stool, designed in 1960, won the first Tendo Mokko Furniture Competition. The designers used strips of paper to conceptualise the form which influenced the final design.
Murai Stool by Reiko Tanabe
An iconic mid-century Japanese design piece that's made with three pieces of moulded plywood of the same shape without any metal fittings. It has a beautiful grain of teak wood that meets towards the centre of the stool. It can be used as a chair, side table, or even stacked as a shelf.

Food For Everyone
CIBI's Miso Soup by Meg Tanaka's Grandma & Carla McRae
We have been working with Food For Everyone for their new series - The Artist Collection No.2. CIBI's delicious Grandma’s Miso Soup was interpreted by artist Carla McRae. This is a special recipe that has been on the menu at CIBI ever since we opened! We love Carla’s colourful rendition of a recipe that means so much to us. It is everything that CIBI represents, curiosity and playfulness with a natural sense of delight. Grandma would be so proud!
