SCAD for Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams

Mitchell Gold + Bob Williams collaborated with SCADpro beginning in November 2020 and during a specific furniture course from March to May 2021, with deep involvement at the briefing, mid-course and final critique stages. The brand joined with SCAD’s multidisciplinary team of professors, graduate and undergraduate students from the university’s top-ranked degree programs furniture design, industrial design, and illustration to research and design concept collections that balance the functional and holistic requirements of working from home. The result: design-forward silhouettes in elegant finishes, grounded by ergonomics and comfort at every touchpoint.

What Supply Chain Issues? Here’s Where You Can Buy Furniture Right Now

  • June 18, 2022

When it comes to supply chain issues, frustrations are at an all-time high for consumers. Model and influencer Allison Weiss Brady has been furnishing her entire home for several years but everything has been delayed. From a toilet that never arrived to a seven-month wait for a storage piece, she’s reached a breaking point. “I ordered a nightstand four months ago to use for drinks next to the bed. Because it was delayed, I asked the store if they could send me their floor model. They said ‘no’, so I’m using an empty cardboard box upside down as a nightstand until it arrives.”

While having custom furniture is ideal, waiting months for essential pieces such as sofas, beds, and dining tables really isn’t an option for most households. But just because you’re in a hurry doesn’t mean sacrificing style. The reality is that most major and smaller furniture retailers are still backed up even more than two years into the pandemic. Still, this isn’t the case for every product and many retailers have great quick ship options that are currently available— meaning you’ll likely wait no more than two weeks to receive your order. While the days of overnight or even three-day availability are gone, with a little bit of planning and flexibility, it’s easy to furnish your home with beautiful pieces, albeit with a slightly limited selection.

Here’s where you can buy quick ship furniture along with some of the best selections available right now. Please note that this information is subject to change and contacting each retailer before you click “add to cart” is always a smart idea.
