Maison Territo Adds Moooi to Its Montreal Catalogue

Maison Territo has added Moooi to its catalogue, introducing another expressive furniture and lighting voice to its Royalmount destination in Montreal. Announced on September 14, 2026, the addition connects Canadian residential, hospitality, and commercial projects with a Dutch brand known for turning everyday references into unexpected objects. The interest lies in how these pieces can influence an interior, from the weight of an upholstered chair to the lightness of a suspended installation.

Twenty-Five Years of Dutch Design

Founded in 2001 by Marcel Wanders and Casper Vissers, Moooi approaches design through a mixture of experimentation, craft, and storytelling. Its extra “o” extends the Dutch word for beautiful, reflecting an appetite for something beyond the expected. Twenty-five years later, that outlook remains visible in objects that combine practical functions with a distinct visual personality.

For interior designers, this offers a useful way to think about focal pieces. Furniture can introduce humour, suggest a memory, or establish a room’s mood. Moooi’s collaborations with established and emerging designers explore those possibilities through scale and material, giving familiar forms enough of a twist to invite a second look.

Seating with Familiar References

Nicholas Baker’s Haybale Lounge Chair with Footstool starts with an agricultural image: stacked hay bales. Quilted upholstered volumes and prominent straps translate that reference into seating. Its appeal comes from the meeting of an easily understood shape and a domestic function, with the bundled construction becoming the defining visual feature.

Marcel Wanders’ Monster Chair takes a more theatrical route. An embroidered face gives the chair an almost character-like presence, while generous upholstery keeps comfort part of the proposition. In an interior, that combination suggests a role as both seating and a conversation piece, particularly where a restrained setting could accommodate a playful interruption.

Lighting Between Structure and Atmosphere

Studio Toer’s Flock of Light uses fine bronze wires, brass cups, and small LED diffusers to suggest a gathering of fireflies. Its dispersed structure creates an airy daytime silhouette, then becomes a constellation of warm points when illuminated. The design makes negative space part of the composition, allowing the surrounding room to remain visible through it.

Rick Tegelaar’s Meshmatics Chandelier explores a different material transformation. Galvanized wire netting becomes a layered suspended form, bringing an ordinary industrial material into decorative lighting. Its transparent construction gives the fixture a defined outline without the visual solidity of an opaque shade. Here, material expression supplies much of the ornament.

A New Resource for Canadian Interiors

Maison Territo founders David Territo and Liv Siv Ing frame the addition around pieces that give rooms an identity. From a design perspective, the featured works offer several approaches: substantial upholstery, expressive detailing, or visually light suspended structures. Their value within a scheme depends on placement and proportion, with each object offering a potential starting point for the interior composition.

Moooi is now part of the Maison Territo catalogue, with the team handling technical documentation, finishes, configurations, and project support across Canada. Prices and individual delivery schedules were not specified in the announcement. For designers developing residential, hospitality, or commercial interiors, the addition expands the retailer’s selection of furniture and lighting with a distinctly narrative approach.
