What’s the inspiration behind the new collection?
The inspiration comes from the essence of home itself—the place where we establish roots and create memories. We think home should be an escape from worry and a refuge that lets you unwind, connect and confidently welcome new experiences. Using materials that last, this launch is about supporting all the small moments that build life at home.
What was the starting point for this collection?
We wanted to create pieces that make life easier and take the worry out of everyday living. We thought about all the ways we experience home—the cozy afternoons with a book and a furry friend; kids turning the dining room table into their personal art studio; or that inevitable spilled glass of wine at a cocktail party. It’s these real-life moments, big and small, that inspired us to design with purpose.
How did the collaboration with Crypton come about?
Collaborating with Crypton provided the perfect textiles to anchor our vision of home as a space that embraces both the chaos and beauty of daily living. By combining Crypton’s three decades of fabric technology expertise with our continuous commitment to thoughtful, timeless design, we’ve curated solutions that cater to real life—spaces to relax, relate and handle unexpected moments with confidence.
We’re also excited to partner with District Eight, a furniture brand we have long admired, to expand our handcrafted game collection. These games align perfectly with our vision of home as a place to not just live but play, decompress and fully be ourselves. Games have this unique ability to bring people together, reduce stress and elevate life’s everyday moments. With this partnership, we’re creating more opportunities for connection and lasting memories, while staying true to durability, functionality and worry-free living.
What piece are you most excited to unveil?
I’m most excited to showcase the unmatched and unexpected cleanability of Crypton fabrics. Crypton technology encapsulates each yarn to permanently provide stain protection and guard against bacteria, mold and odors. Any mess can be erased with just soap and water, even stubborn oil-based spills. We were blown away as we tested crayon marks, red wine, and peanut butter and jelly—and customers will be too!
Plus, Crypton fabrics aren’t just tough on messes—they’re also kind to the planet. Free from harmful chemicals and certified for low emissions, they blend seamlessly into active households without sacrificing style. Beauty often carries an expectation of delicacy, but Crypton fabrics are here to redefine that perception. Style and performance no longer have to be mutually exclusive. With this launch, we’re unveiling hundreds of options—featuring fresh designs as well as beloved classics—crafted with Crypton fabrics to meet the challenges of daily life. These pieces promise unmatched durability and longevity, ensuring your home remains both beautiful and resilient for years to come.
How does this collection push Four Hands forward?
Collaborating with Crypton fabrics drives the brand toward a new benchmark in performance and sustainability. This partnership solidifies our commitment to a future grounded in practicality and innovation, paving the way for an evolving design philosophy that resonates with modern living. I’m truly excited to see how this progression redefines our approach to creating spaces that inspire and endure.
How does the collection complement your other offerings?
Four Hands has always been all about thoughtful, timeless design and making the most of moments spent at home. Bringing in materials, silhouettes and pieces that can stand up to everyday life is just the next evolution of that dedication. And as always, our styles are meant to be collected, and they seamlessly complement our existing pieces. It’s never an overhaul or a fleeting trend with Four Hands. We’re always continuing to refine and build.
In addition to Crypton performance fabrics, tell us about the other materials in this collection.
We focused on materials that elevate everyday living. Natural wood, stone, metal and leather introduce genuine elements to anchor a space. These materials, chosen for their authenticity and ability to grow more beautiful with time, emphasize inherent charm and character.
How do you envision designers using this collection?
My hope is that this new collection unlocks even more creativity and freedom to explore the way designers use Four Hands furniture in their projects—because now they’ll never have to choose between elevated style and performance-level durability. No matter how many kids or pets live in the home, no matter how many glasses of wine have been splashed in the past, designers get to go with whatever style they love most, and then just let life happen.
