in Brooklyn, Egg Collective was founded in 2011 by designers Stephanie Beamer, Crystal Ellis and Hillary Petrie. The trio adeptly meld their individual areas of expertise, including art, architecture, and woodworking, into sculptural, heirloom-quality modern furniture that evokes their own histories and memories. Beamer’s cousin Mary Elizabeth – named after her grandmother and fondly known as Emmy – inspired the Emmy Armchair (2019). Reflecting its namesake’s brightness and strength of character, the sofa is tailored but relaxed. A baffled back cushion with a feather-silk fill adds just the right amount of support. “The Emmy speaks to multiple generations,” says Beamer. “Youthful yet mature, it resonates with a sense of modernism and tradition. It’s a place to feel at home.” Made in Canada.
