Stellar Works today announced its first collaboration with David Rockwell and his award-winning firm Rockwell Group, Valet by David Rockwell. For Valet, David Rockwell explores a new furniture typology that supports everyday living, working, and entertaining. With tactile and refined materials and details, including full-grain saddle leather, American walnut, black steel, and brushed brass, each piece redefines the essentials of modern living and fits seamlessly into home or hospitality environments.

“The concept for Valet grew out of our needs as designers,” said David Rockwell, Founder and President, Rockwell Group.“The collection merges expressive materials, craftsmanship, functionality, and elements of surprise to activate transitional spaces in residential and hospitality environments.”

“We are excited to be working with David Rockwell on the latest collection for our Collaboration series,” said Yuichiro HoriCEO and Founder of Stellar Works. “Valet blends storytelling, materiality, and craft creating a furniture collection that demonstrates a fresh and innovative approach to American classics.

Rockwell Group took inspiration for the collection, part of Stellar Works’ Collaboration series, from the roots of the word “valet,” but reinterpreted it for the 21st century – this crafted, unique furniture accommodates the narrative of our lives today. From lounge seating to customizable shelving, each of the 14 pieces in the collection has a streamlined functionality – luxurious embellishments, from leather cords to matte brass hardware, double as subtle tools for living well. Grouped together in endless combinations, the pieces help create natural transitions in the home or hospitality setting, from entry, to work, to play.

Stellar Works stands for a renaissance of refined culture and Asian aesthetics. Inspired by the long-standing craft and industry of traditional cultures, it represents a commitment to bridging the gap between old and new, east and west – in attitude, form and application. Stellar Works seeks to reintroduce past collections of classics, alongside culturally-inspired contemporary signatures. It infuses freshness into heritage and grounds innovation with enduring craftsmanship.

In 2013, we established Stellar Works as a way to bring ideas together: East and West, heritage and modernity, craft and industry – bringing the best of the past into the light of the present. Our aim was to inspire a renaissance in Asian aesthetics, taking the forms, styles and motifs that have characterised Japanese design across the centuries and filtering them through the lens of the European tradition to create something new and timeless.
