For Coolican & Company, a 2023 commission from Holt Renfrew proved to be a turning point — literally. Tasked with designing sculptural merchandising tables for the retailer’s Toronto flagship, steps away from the Studio Building where Lawren Harris and the Group of Seven once gathered, the design team found its muse. Too complex and costly to reproduce in its first iteration, the design was reimagined using traditional lathe techniques, adapting those glacial forms for residential and commercial spaces alike. The resulting Asquith collection — a family of dining, coffee and side tables that debuted at IDS Toronto 2026 — channels Harris’s ice-covered mountains and wind-sculpted glaciers into asymmetrical glacial base formations of lathe-halved semicones and cylinders. Tops of FSC-certified white oak, ash or walnut bevelled at the perimeter complete the composition. It defines a confident new language for Canadian design.
