Sauder Boutique To Display Prototype Designs At ICFF

Sauder recently announced plans to expand Sauder Boutique Collection with the addition of two prototypes and two new products to be unveiled at the International Contemporary Furniture Fair (ICFF) from May 21 to 24 in New York City. Consumers’ evolving lifestyle needs and style preferences inspired the new Sauder Boutique Collection extensions, including a Work Table, Storage Cart and Dixon Dowell Short and Tall Stools in a new finish. The latest additions to the collection address functional lifestyle needs with furniture that works for consumers’ style, budget and space.

“As more consumers are working from home in a multipurpose or shared space, there’s a definite need for home office furniture with elevated style and design,” says Shawn Sowers, principle design director for Sauder. “The Sauder Boutique Work Table prototype serves as a workstation for an individual, much like an executive desk, or a small conference table in a collaborative or shared workspace. Its contemporary design makes it functional for the office but also something that will blend into the design of any home.”

The double-decker multiperson Sauder Boutique Work Table prototype provides storage on all sides and includes two movable metal trays that serve as drawers or bins for office supplies. The maple veneer top features two grommets for cable management and sits atop a black powder-coated metal frame and legs. To pair with the Work Table, the rolling Storage Cart prototype includes two storage compartments — a locked section for securing personal items in a shared workspace and a letter-size file section. The cart features a maple veneer case, black powder-coated metal handle and perforated metal doors.

Also debuting at ICFF, a new version of the popular Dixon Dowel Stools responds to market demand for a darker color of the original white stools. Sauder introduces the counter-height Dixon Dowel Short Stool and bar-height Dixon Dowel Tall Stool in black powder-coated metal with a walnut dowel footrest. The black stools will be available at retail and online in October.

Sauder Boutique products are designed in the design studio at Sauder, a company founded on the premise that everyone deserves affordable, well-designed furniture.
