"For founders Nolan McHugh and Trevor Briggs, who conceived Piaule after establishing a homeware line of the same name, design decisions have been guided by modern precedents and deference to the natural surroundings. This focus now carries into a new collaboration with Design Within Reach (DWR), marked by refreshed furnishings across shared spaces, cabins, and the newly completed Oak House."
"We have a shared belief in the role of modern design as both educational and experiential. Piaule's vision for how architecture, interiors, and nature intersect strongly aligns with DWR's long-standing commitment to inspiring people through well-designed spaces. As DWR's assortment expanded to encompass a broader spectrum of works, the collaboration evolved in step."
Piaule is a fifty-acre landscape hotel in upstate New York featuring modernist cedar-clad cabins on stilts, communal dining, a spa, and trail networks overlooking the Catskill Mountains. Founded by Nolan McHugh and Trevor Briggs, the property prioritizes modern design principles and environmental sensitivity. A collaboration with Design Within Reach has introduced curated furnishings throughout the hotel, including works by Arne Jacobsen and John Pawson. The partnership reflects shared values regarding modern design's educational and experiential roles, with selections made through careful consideration of material, proportion, and alignment with the property's architectural vision.
