New York City-based design studio JUNTOS has unveiled its first collection of furniture and has called the body of work 'Coming Home.' The wholesome name reflects the motivation of co-founders María Daniela Huiza and Abraham Bendheim—to build a furniture collection that reflects the values of togetherness, both aesthetically and in function. This ties in well with the branding of the studio since "JUNTOS is the Spanish word for together."
All design decisions in the Coming Home collection are made with practicality and togetherness in mind. For instance, the Oblique coffee table has an interesting silhouette and is equipped with a lower shelf where items can be stored should the family need "a blank surface top" to gather amongst themselves or with guests.
