Superfight has taken the age old debate of “who would win in a fight?” and translated it into card-game form. Similar to Cards Against Humanity, players must build the most outrageous fighter from their hand (for example a pirate swinging a shark on a chain while riding a segway) and submit them to battle. It’s then up to everyone to hilariously argue over who would actually win the fight. The Superfight Classic Bundle comes with a core deck and five expansion packs for never-ending fun.

A stand-out from design duo Saint Atma’s Fall/Winter 2015 collection, the large Atlantic Textile is a versatile piece that can be wrapped around the shoulders, set on the table or bed, even hung on the wall. We love the unique rough softness of the raw silk that feels cozier than its fine silk counterpart; but it’s the captivating hand-dyed patterns (done in Brooklyn) that make this extra special.

Manufactured by Alessi, this stainless steel kettle has become the brand’s first multi-sensory design—warming tastebuds and stimulating eardrums. Unlike the ear-piercing screams of other kettles, this classic 1983 kettle by Richard Sapper produces a delightful melody when water reaches a boil—thanks to a brass whistle that sings two notes: “mi” and “si.” Its simple, notched handle also makes it a pleasure to pour.

Every few years, artist David Hochbaum takes the wood scraps left over from his homemade frames and turns them into something magical: little hand-painted houses that come grouped together in a set of 11, all shipped in a coffee can. Each house is numbered and signed and no two are ever the same. They’re an entry-point to the artist’s imaginative vision and are plenty of fun to set up and move around—whether it’s the holidays or not.
