CANOE was established in 2005. Drawing on our 20 years of experience in the retail industry and our passion for design, the CANOE concept is to offer simple, beautiful, and functional objects that can be used and enjoyed everyday. To us, modern is an approach, not a style. We seek out products with a lasting aesthetic that transcends short-lived trends.
Our name reflects our approach, referencing a timeless and pleasing product form that performs its function splendidly. Our name also suggests discovery, and we hope our customers have this sense when they shop online or visit us at our shop in downtown Portland, Oregon." -Canoe

title Quote: Maurizzio Nanucci
"Founded in 1991 as a collection of artwork and images hand-assembled by a group of friends in a one-room apartment in New York City, Visionaire has since grown into one of the most highly sought-after fashion and art publications in the world. The New YorkerVisionaire magazine as "a creative playground for leading designers, artists, photographers and thinkers," adding "it's a gallery in print. A cabinet of irresistible curiosities. A daring iconoclast dressed to thrill." For this latest issue, 52 curators ... have selected seven artists. Each artist contributes one image for a total of 365 images by 365 different artists, which are assembled as an electronic calendar that displays one image for each day of the year...." -Visionaire
Title Quote: John Holloway
"Gold is a material imbued with myth. Its brilliance, indelibility and uncorrodable surface have come the signify beauty, purity, and immortality. To appropriate these qualities cultures have adopted the application of gold to the body. This reflects a desire to amend the imperfections and impermanence of the physical human form. In modern societies it can be argued that jewelry is worn as a visual, aesthetic, extension of the internal desire for perfection. In contrast, I present gold jewelry as a vehicle to amplify taboo aspects of the body. I fabricate gold adornment to highlight where the interior body transgresses its boundaries making organs, imperfections and diseases visible. The form of the adornment often reflects malignant excrescences, such as rupturing membranes or cancerous growths. These gleaming outgrowths cause bodily residues to be shed as they spread orifices and tear skin. When the beauty of gold is alloyed with the seeping body the objects become both intriguing and repulsive."

"The fadeout chair's legs seem to gently disappear, as though the chair
stands in a pool of mist or fog. The chair’s back and seat are wooden,
and the clear acrylic legs are specially painted by craftsmen so that
the wood grain appears to gradually fade away. Usually, our perception
of furniture is strongly affected by the space around it. The fade-out
chair turns this relationship on its head: we can change the look and
feel of a space simply by placing the chair in it. This was our attempt
to design space itself through furniture." -Nendo
