Arhaus furniture is clean, cool, and downright stunning. The brand partners with artisans around the world to piece together furniture that is also as non-harmful to the earth as they can get it. Arhaus tables are the real standout; the boxy coffee tables and roomy dining tables are pieces you'll want to pass on to the next generation.

Thuma

For minimalist bedroom furniture, no one is doing it like Thuma. The brand made initial waves with its platform bed frame that had a no-tool assembly for all the people that complain about self-assembled furniture. Nowadays, the company has expanded to a range of easy-to-assemble furniture—like dressers, side tables, and multipurpose storage—in tasteful woods.

Serena & Lily

You might think Serena & Lily skews too feminine for your taste, but the brand is one of the best for outdoor furniture. Wicker bistro chairs and performance fabrics just nail that beach house look.

One Kings Lane

One Kings Lane fits the "luxury" bill completely. The brand is the holy grail of luxury furniture, courtesy of its vintage, upper-crust feel that makes interior styles like Parisian chic and European rustic easy to accomplish—and makes Bohemian allure and coastal charm look that much more refined.

CB2

Shop

If you're looking for designer furniture that doesn't necessarily come with a designer price tag, we'll always recommend CB2. The furniture ranges from mid-century inspired contemporary designs to revived vintage pieces. With solid construction and luxe textiles, it all looks incredibly expensive, but since it's a big box operation, the prices don't follow. It's an amazing bang-for-your-buck seller.

Eternity Modern

Eternity Modern's style is, as you can imagine, modern. That means sharp lines, metals, lots of black and silver and acrylic. The brand is constantly innovating, too, and isn't afraid to take some design risks in its work. Right now, Eternity Modern is best known for its dramatically tufted couch collection, with pieces that look like they're kind of made of bubbles. Don't think about it, just look at it.

The Citizenry

The Citizenry

Shop

Shopping made-to-order furniture is typically pretty tough, but The Citizenry puts that made-for-you feeling into online shopping. The brand works with small-scale artisans to sell handcrafted home decor direct to the consumer. You can get a new sofa from a Northern California studio, hinoki wood accent tables from a workshop in Japan, or leather from a family in Portugal. You get the idea. It's the best craftspeople in the world, all on one site.

Lumens

Lumens

Shop

Lumens is like a high-end thrift store where you don't have to do any of the work and everything you look at is already beautiful. The brand's furniture can be summed up in one word—modern—which takes its form in Lumens's clean, minimalist couches, exciting high-style chairs, or abstract-shaped tables. These varying looks come together and somehow just look right in one room. And that's the experimental home design mindset Lumens champions.

Jonathan Adler

Jonathan Adler

Shop

You may know Jonathan Adler from his appearances on GMA and The Oprah Winfrey Show, or from his magnificent designs of the luxury cabanas at Dreamworks Waterpark and upscale rentals at the High Line. Maybe you've even visited his eponymous boutique in Soho just to decipher the artistic perspective within each of his furniture designs. How did he make the sofa lines so tailored? or Why is this chair so sculptured? You ask, but don't know the answer. But you know, for sure, that since it's Jonathan Adler, they'll look great at your place.

Williams Sonoma Home

Williams Sonoma

Shop

Being known for selling stellar kitchenware, apparently, isn't enough for Williams Sonoma. It just had to move into home furnishings and sell them just as well. In that case, consider the mission accomplished. Williams Sonoma Home employs big textures and silhouettes to do the heavy style-lifting, with exposed natural finishes that look timeless, and clean lines that feel slick. A special nod to its outdoor furniture collection of artisan-made lounge pieces.

Maiden Home

Shop

Beige and balmy are two words that best describe Maiden Home's visual aesthetic. The primary tone of its pieces (mostly seatings, tables, and beds) look so warm they make living room feel like bedroom, and make bedroom feel like paradise—if it wasn't already. Resilient and responsible, then, best describe the brand's quality, which thrives on the craftsmanship of North Carolina artisans, and the natural beauty of their hand-selected, sustainably-sourced materials.

Interior Define

Interior Define

Shop

Your home doesn't need to build a personality if it gets all its trimmings from Interior Define, since the brand's furniture will, well, define it instead. But to do that, it requires your input, which is why Interior Define offers a customizable furniture experience and designates you as the interior designer of your own home. Even though the brand's site and social pages boast a metropolitan aura, you're welcome to inject your own twist onto its furniture for your pastoral, countryside home.

Sundays

Sundays

Shop

Think of what your rooms should look like on a typically wonderful Sunday morning—saturated with natural light, inviting, and good-vibes-only. With that in mind, Sundays was born—plural, because it strives to make your home look like a Sunday every damn day. Its furniture looks vibrant and makes any living space feel less sterile. For instance, there are sleek oaks dining tables, Mod-style boucle lounge chairs, and cloud-like modular sofas in all shapes and sizes.

West Elm

West Elm

Shop

Despite being the most popular furniture store on this list, West Elm is, by no means, populist (yes, we're aware of how elitist that sounds). The brand touts contemporary shapes and layered neutrals, in timeless, look-great-anywhere pieces like a mid-century bed or an industrial-inspired desk table. Then there are the details—in accents from leather to brushed gold, or services like fabric swatches for customization. And don't forget West Elm's perennial sale section where you might score a coffee table at 50 percent off.

Burrow

Burrow

Shop

Burrow is famed for its modular sectionals that you can personalize till you get tired of yourself—and you probably have, which is why Burrow's called up wingmen from the bedroom and home office to help float the boat again, but not by form; instead, by function. That's Burrow's specialty—making luxe furniture you'll use daily, like its wall shelf or standing desk. Its monotone pieces also look like they can take a beating for years. Better yet, Burrow's on the more affordable end of the spectrum.

BenchMade Modern

BenchMade Modern

Shop

BenchMade Modern's furniture, namely its sectionals, can spiral upwards to five-digit pricing. Yet, other than the price tag, the brand doesn't seem to concern itself with the notion of luxury. In fact, BenchMade Modern was born out of the idea that homeowners can surround themselves with extravagance without compromising on the furniture's shipping, personalization, and usefulness. That ethos is built into every item BenchMade Modern offers, often with smooth surfaces, clean lines, and playful dimensions.
