WHAT MAKES A DESIGN ICON?

For a piece to be truly iconic to the HB editors, it needs to:

★ Be recognisable homeware that deserves the spotlight.

★ Illustrate innovative design, whether from the high street or

a high-end showroom.

★ Have longevity and really stand the test of time.

★ Serve as an object of desire – beautiful, yes, but useful, too.
