Designer Evan Bare learned the ropes of industrial design at Humber College and then at a furniture frame factory. Trading mass production for small-scale creations, Bare started his own eco-conscious design firm, 608. His sophisticated wood pieces (lots of hard lines and right angles) are all sustainably built and multifunctional. This table has a removable glass top and storage for magazines and board games. $1,350. Bergo Designs.
