Decades of Design Experience

Blake Tovin began his career as a designer after graduating from the University of the Arts in Philadelphia in 1982. For over four decades, he’s honed his skills in creating high-quality furniture.

In the early years of his design journey, Tovin produced handmade pieces for individual clients and galleries, a practice that helped him develop a refined attention to detail. As he began working on a larger scale, he developed a greater understanding of materials and manufacturing processes.

Tovin’s expert knowledge gained over many years of dedicated design work was funneled into the Corsa Collection’s creation. Scandinavian influences are apparent in the simple silhouettes and clean lines. Refined in appearance and perfectly practical in application, these pieces exude an inviting warmth through natural wood tones. Features like gently rounded corners, waterfall edge side panels and sleigh legs contribute to a subtle mid-century modern elegance.

The Corsa Collection is meticulously crafted in Canada by a family-owned and operated company that has been producing high-quality solid wood furniture for over two decades. Their team of skilled craftspeople is highly trained, and each piece of furniture is carefully inspected throughout the manufacturing process.

Time-honored woodworking techniques and advanced machinery are utilized to add durability and beauty to these furniture pieces. Headboards and footboards feature exposed box joints, while chest and dresser drawers are made with English dovetail joints and soft-close mechanisms. To maintain a simple, clean look, all hardware is fully concealed and headboards are made from a solid wood panel.

A Commitment to Sustainability

This furniture collection is made from a combination of North American solid white oak, white oak veneer and solid maple. These materials are harvested from sustainably managed forests where responsible land management and reforestation help preserve delicate ecosystems and ensure high-quality materials are available for generations to come.

The careful sourcing of materials is only the first of many steps aimed at protecting the earth’s resources. As each piece of Corsa furniture is crafted, excess wood is collected and repurposed. Furniture is shipped with eco-friendly packaging materials, including recyclable foam protection made from CFC- and HCFC-free polyethylene plastic and corrugated cardboard boxes crafted with 94% recycled content.

These steps help to reduce the environmental impact of each furniture piece. In addition, the high-quality craftsmanship featured in the timeless Corsa Collection is just as important from a sustainability standpoint. These pieces are built for long-lasting durability, allowing them to be used reliably for decades without the need for replacement.
