In today\u2019s world, we are often allured by the shiny and the new, the trending products and new releases that are powered by big marketing budgets and the facade of novelty. Yet true design lovers know that our<\/em> currency is in pieces that endure, rising above styles and fashions to have a timeless appeal and a lasting impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Singapore\u2019s premium destination for global design, XTRA<\/a> knows this better than anyone. Since first opening their doors in 1989, their team have meticulously curated a product offering and a design voice that reiterates the commitment to last, giving both professionals and enthusiasts alike access to some of the world\u2019s most iconic pieces. Every product and collection stocked represents a history of design founded on craftsmanship and innovation, with each purchase an investment that will only continue to appreciate as the years pass by.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

One such name in their collection is MillerKnoll<\/a>, a collective of dynamic design brands that represents the gold standard in modern furniture. Merging the prolific names of Herman Miller and Knoll, MillerKnoll has created an unprecedented powerhouse of design excellence, preserving their respective legacies while taking the brands to the global scale. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Together, XTRA and MillerKnoll provide Singapore with some of the world\u2019s most iconic examples of modern design, including some of Knoll\u2019s most celebrated products by designers including Harry Bertoia<\/a> and Warren Platner<\/a>. From the sculptural wire mesh Bertoia collection (1952) (which includes the iconic Diamond Chair), to the steel silhouettes of the Platner collection (1966) of tables and chairs, Knoll has facilitated and preserved some of the most loved and sought-after pieces of furniture, with both collections reflected on as two of the greatest design achievements of the 20th century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"XTRA<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In contrast to fast-fashion and fast-furniture, these two collections stand as the epitome of timelessness. They were both designed by dedicated creators who brought artistry to their furniture creations, and who showed the world that furniture could be an art form. In addition, these designs have both stood the test of time. Not only are they physically durable and long-wearing, but they also still hold the same visual appeal they did when they were first released.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Over half a century ago, both Platner and Bertoia went to huge lengths in order to change the way we engage with furniture design. Today, brands like MillerKnoll and XTRA carry this ethos on, as they continue to produce and retail classic and new pieces that allow clients to\u00a0 invest in designs that will last the distance. Backed by exceptional after-sales services, and proper documentation for insurance and valuation purposes, each purchase is not only a sound investment, but a contribution to legacies that continue to shape global design.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
