FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CANADIAN DESIGN STUDIO LAUNCHES DEBUT COLLECTION OF SCULPTURAL FURNITURE FOR EVERYDAY LIVING
House of QWRKS is a made-to-order collection that embraces the unique possibilities of digital manufacturing to create expressive forms with everyday function.
Trail, British Columbia — July 2026
QWRKhouse, a new furniture studio founded by designers Krista Humphrey and Bernard Mitchell, has launched House of QWRKS, a six-piece debut collection of sculptural and sustainable 3D-printed stools and side tables. The full collection — Vortex, Orchid, Pspy, Firkin, Cavity and Shift — is available now for order at qwrkhouse.com, made to order in Trail, B.C., in a choice of six colours.
The launch enters a furniture market increasingly split between mass-produced imports and high-cost custom design. QWRKhouse positions itself democratically between the two: each piece is made in Canada, priced for everyday buyers, and produced individually rather than in bulk runs. Each piece is 3D printed from a digital file using fused filament fabrication. The studio prints in PLA, a plant-based bio-plastic, with little to no support material to limit waste, and has adopted a make-on-request model, where pieces are built only after an order is placed. The six unique pieces range from Vortex, a footstool with an arched, sculptural form, to Orchid, a side table whose legs trace the shape of an orchid's labellum, to Cavity, built around deliberate structural negative space — all offered in six colours: Sandstone, Pale Yellow, Turquoise, Lime, Bone White and Red.
The House of QWRKS collection is available now through the QWRKhouse online store at https://qwrkhouse.com. QWRKhouse designs and prints each piece in-house in Trail, B.C. and ships across Canada, the United States and internationally. Pricing varies by piece with current prices for each item listed on the website. The studio's earlier work, developed under the same founders, has been featured by the Vancouver Sun, Western Living and Berlin Design Week.
