Picking Favorites…The debate continues…

Our next “favorite” victim is our creative director, Natlie Eshkenasy. As expected she jumped at the chance to tell me why the Denim Bench is the most “fab” piece we have in our collection. She said it with such conviction; I almost started to believe it was my favorite!

Who: Natalie Eshkenasy, Creative Director

Favorite: Denim Bench

Why the Denim Bench?
“A pair of jeans can define a period of time or span an era. Denim is a classic and effortless fabric that never goes out of style! You can put whatever you want with denim and it will look fabulous…”

If you could put the Denim Benches in any setting, where would it be?“I’d warm up an industrial space with the denim benches. I see it with the Hounds Tooth Illumina Box Tables and huge bright, maybe even neon, chandeliers! Or you can maintain a minimalist tone with clean and mirrored accents like the Jasper Table.”

How would you encourage the people to utilize the denim?
“I haven’t seen anyone else with denim furniture; it has an edge. It’s vintage, modern and comfortable all at the same time…Our eyes are used to seeing the fabric. Everyone has denim in their closet because it blends so naturally.“

Picking Favorites...

If you were a fly on the wall in our office, you’d see that we each pitch certain pieces relentlessly and usually it’s the piece of furniture we wish we could take home with us.
You may hear something to the extent of “No! I’m sure your husband won’t mind sitting in hot pink chairs! Real men do pink…” It’s not that we’re trying to make shameless sales – it’s that we each pick favorites – there’s no getting around it. So in attempt for each of us to pitch our preferences, I’ve decided to take it to the blog, writing a series of entries highlighting each member of our team’s favorite piece:

Who: Ronen Tamary

Favorite piece: Striped Lounge Chair


Why is the Striped Lounge Chair your favorite?
“The bold print of black and white stripes has always caught my attention. It’s a classic look that I’ve wanted to add in for a long time to give the lounge chair a cozy Mediterranean twist.”

How can I make the stripes act more like a neutral so I can have other bold accents in my décor?
“Black and white can be incorporated into any color scheme. We wanted to give our clients an option other than all white or mango lounge furniture so that they could include some of our black furniture into their layouts. This print gives the rich wood an opportunity to mix with pieces like the Lana or Jasper Tables, fitting into classic outdoor setting. For an edgier look, throw some hot pink or bright green pillows onto the black and white stripes and you’ve got a brand new scene.”

If you could integrate the Striped Lounge Furniture into any setting, where would it be?
"I definitely see a sunset, poolside or beachside – the Striped Lounge Furniture mixed with white ottomans and black Lana Tables."

It’s summer!

While this truth may have you day dreaming about warm weather cocktails, barbeques or your next vacay; we’re still working!

Up and Running; Live and Well!

Several postings ago, we asked you to stay tuned for our new website and here it is - up and running; live and well! Check out all of our new pieces in easily navigated pages, the updated gallery and don’t forget to keep reading the blog!

Seen: New Bars on the Scene

In a city where white seems to always be the new black, we’ve decided to make mirror the new black…We also really liked the old black - which many of you will be surprised to learn is actually BLACK! So we are introducing our new acrylic bars in mirror and black available in 4’ and 6’.

Like all of our bars, they can be used individually or as part of a larger setup. Create a glam look with the Black Bar or reflect your event’s scene with the Mirror Bar. Give us a call and we’ll help your event wear the newest black (and the old ones too)!

Art Deco, an important member of our design team.

Earlier this year I walked past a building on Collins Ave. with detailing that resembled rattan weaving. I unexpectedly became fixated on the pattern and days later added the Rattan Illumina Box Table to our line. Many of our pieces have been sketched up after being inspired by Miami’s Art Deco style where the architecture personifies brave colors, interesting lines and vintage detailing.



When I first moved to Miami, I learned to respect how buildings proudly wore colors like hot pink or aqua. I’ve heard tourist call these tones invasive but I think that when teamed up with the sand across the street and the surrounding trees, they may actually be witnessing balance. In the same respect we designed pieces like the Grass Bar and Babar Chair, our signature piece, to play with an events décor and never against it.

If I take time to wander around the beach or the Upper East Side, I’ll most likely notice something new in a building which I speed past every day. If I wander with someone from my design team, I can guarantee that he or she will point out an element that I haven’t begun to appreciate. My assurance comes from knowing that Miami’s Art Deco style is hidden throughout this overexposed city…you just need to keep an eye out for details.
