L. Ercolani Canvas Tall Cabinet and Reprise Chair, designed by Norm Architects
Marking the 102-year anniversary of Ercol, the coveted British furniture maker has introduced a very special premium brand committed to timeless design. Good Form is proud to present L. Ercolani, a refined luxury brand inspired by the designs and vision of Ercol’s founder.
Drawing on Ercol’s rich design heritage and craftsmanship, L. Ercolani embodies the classic collection designed by Ercolani with new works from international designers that represent their past and future heritage. It reminds us once again how Ercol has remained at the cutting edge of design for over a century.
Today, Lucian Ercolani is fondly remembered for both his craft and his compelling personality — a magnetizing presence that imbues his formative designs with warmth and precision.
Driven by an uncompromising devotion to natural materiality and form, the Canvas Collection echoes Norm Architect’s seminal vision and distinctive design language. Released in 2020, the Canvas Large Cabinet is a discrete, sophisticated solution for minimizing household clutter.
The star feature of the Canvas Large Cabinet is its series of sliding doors, designed to appear as separate elements yet bound together by a hidden handle, seamlessly tucked into the wooden groove. For a softer look, users can opt to add fabric panels to the outside of the doors, choosing between a soothing selection of muted, cohesive fabrics.
Director, Henry Tadros, aims to build on his great-grandfathers legacy and forward-thinking spirit with a new collection of designers, united in their appreciation for craftsmanship, materiality and timeless design. “Much like Lucian always looked to the future, we too are looking to create a new collection, combining archival and original design.”
From Norm Architects and Lars B. Fjetland to Matthew Hilton and Tomoko Azumi, the new designs proudly uphold Ercol’s steady focus on quality, engrained with the family's intrinsic understanding of wood.
At the heart of L. Ercolani is the time honoured furniture making techniques – wedge and tenon joints, steam bending, dovetail joints – alongside state-of-the-art technology that has cemented Ercol’s highly celebrated legacy.

By working with global design talents, the L. Ercolani collections combine a timeless familiarity of classic British design with a contemporary ‘warm minimalism’ aesthetic. “We are creating thoughtful pieces with a distinct yet enduring presence,” says Tadros, “imparting a sense of home, heritage and belonging.”
Good Form is proud to continue honouring the past and future heritage of Ercol with the development of L. Ercolani. The collections are available in store and online now.
