The American brand’s broad and highly versatile collection has now arrived in Singapore at the Proof Living ION showroom.
May 7th, 2012
Following its successful introduction of American brand Barbara Barry to Singapore a couple of years ago, Proof Living is taking yet another leap forward with Baker, which incidentally also carries a 62-piece Barbara Barry collection.
Barbara Barry for Baker
Baker’s approach to design and construction of upholstered furniture is similar to the way a couturier approaches a garment. At Baker, what’s inside a piece of furniture is just as important as what is on the outside.

Thomas Pheasant Dining Chairs
There’s a distinctly harmonious balance between scale and proportion, and Baker uses up to 11 layers of material on seats and backs to give exacting comfort and durability. The finest-quality lumber is also used with interlocking joinery, braced and fastened to last a lifetime.

Each of Baker’s collaboration with designers offers something unique.
Barbara Barry’s style is characterised by fluid lines, and balanced and graceful proportions; Thomas Pheasant’s classical-meets-contemporary style is defined by symmetrical forms with added classic decorative elements; Laura Kirar’s designs draw inspiration from organic forms; and Bill Sofield’s design are inspired by his travels. Many of his pieces also feature exotic materials.
