We've put together some design boards that feature our new arrivals (that are arriving as we speak, or coming soon!). Many of our selections are from Century's Carrier and Company collection, Thomas O'Brien's collection, some other faves, and a little of Highland House, Hancock & Moore, and Maitland Smith mixed in. Oh, and we can't forget the amazing indoor/outdoor fabrics we selected from Pindler! Below each board you'll find links to all the products.

We hope you enjoy this preview of our new showroom vignettes!

Roundup: Swivel Chairs

8/3/2020

ROUNDUP: SWIVEL CHAIRS

The swivel chair has come a long way since it was invented by Thomas Jefferson. It's said that he modified the English-style Windsor chair with various parts, including casters used in rope-hung windows. Jefferson sat upon this chair when he drafted the Declaration of Independence in 1776.

Nowadays, the swivel has evolved from a desk chair into a lounge chair, bringing function and versatility to your home. This blog is a roundup of our favorite swivel chairs from our brands. You'll find a style for every design aesthetic -- plus, many of these chairs are currently on our floor for you to see and sit in person!

Tip: When you click on each image, it will bring you to that product's page, where you'll find dimensions and specs -- and if you're logged in (as a designer), you can save products to project folders and access pricing.

Santa Barbara Designs: 2020 Inspirations

5/1/2020

It feels like patio season has officially begun in Denver! Our outdoor spaces are becoming an important extension of our homes now that we're spending so much time at home. We recently introduced you to our new outdoor lines, and now we are focusing on our good friends, Santa Barbara Designs. Not only do they craft one-of-a-kind umbrellas, they support their local community and beyond. They have recently been making masks which they continue to donate to local hospitals, and they even sent some to us!

Their latest Inspirations are centered around California, which is so fitting because of the pride they have in community. I hope you enjoy the wonderfully inspired umbrellas below. Also, make sure you click on the umbrella styles you like -- it will bring you to the exact product in our Digital Showroom, and if you're logged in as a designer, you'll see the starting at pricing.

Santa Barbara Designs®
An Umbrella Like No Other

California 2020

This year’s Inspirations celebrate the beauty of the great state of California. Santa Barbara Designs was born on the California coast, which they’ve called their home for over thirty years.

The 2020 Inspirations take their design cues from the landmarks and legends that give California its charm and allure. Whether you prefer Malibu or Pebble Beach, the drama of El Capitan, or the glamour of Hollywood, they’ve got a California Inspiration that will make you feel right at home or remind you of a favorite vacation.

The Avalon

Avalon is a charming resort community on the island of Catalina, known for its casual beachside structures that feature pops of pink and aqua. SBD's nod to this island town is their seamed “Vogue” canopy, in French Pink and Aqua Sea, on a white Mirasol frame.

The Pebble Beach

The coastal beauty and legendary golf courses of Pebble Beach keep visitors coming back year after year. This tribute to Pebble Beach captures the essence of both, with their seamed “Vogue” canopy in Jungle Green and Tahitian Blue, on a white Paseo frame.

The Napa Valley

Hundreds of hillside vineyards dot California’s Napa Valley wine region, creating curves and slopes of green and purple, as far as the eye can see. SBD toasts the region with their own Napa Valley, a Petite Flamenco in Jungle Green, with Concord braid trim.

The Malibu Modern

Malibu is more than just sun-drenched beaches and movie stars – it’s a showcase of modern residential architecture, with dramatic structures dotting the coastline. SBD captured the vibe with Malibu Modern, their Stainless Steel Paseo umbrella with a seamed “Vogue” canopy, in Whitecap and Drifting Dune.

The Hollywood Regency

The glitz and glamour of Hollywood’s Golden Age is forever captured in the homes and estates of the movie stars who worked and played here. This grand tribute to the era is Hollywood Regency, which features Cabana Black Stripe fabric on a domed Mirasol canopy. Brass brush fringe and an anodized gold Mirasol finial complete the picture.

The Emerald Bay

Emerald Bay is Lake Tahoe’s crown jewel – an oasis of shimmering greens, turquoise and blues against a beautiful mountain backdrop. A playground for hikers, bikers and boaters, this national landmark is a California favorite. SBD's tribute to Emerald Bay is a Double Decker with alternating panels of Summer Sky and Santa Barbara Blue, with a scalloped valance and Dragonfly brush fringe.

The El Capitan

Yosemite National Park is home to El Capitan, whose iconic granite walls reflect the changing hues of the earth and sky in shades of pink, lavender and green. SBD pays homage to this natural wonder with their Riviera umbrella in Watermelon and Lavender Cloud, with Fern braid trim on a keyhole valance.

The Beverly Hills

The fabled Beverly Hills Hotel has always been the ultimate beacon of glamour, welcoming guests with its signature pink, green and white grand lobby. This BH Hotel is a Double Decker in French Pink and Sage Green, with Natural braid trim on a keyhole valance.

The Santa Barbara Sunset

Santa Barbara is known for its graceful beauty and picturesque location – and for some of the most dramatic sunsets anywhere. The Santa Barbara Sunset features French Pink, Malibu Blue, Watermelon, and Tahitian Blue fabrics, on – of course – an original Santa Barbara umbrella with a teak frame.

Home of the Santa Barbara Umbrella®

From coast to coast and continent to continent, the elegant outdoor umbrellas by Santa Barbara Designs grace the exteriors of the world’s finest private residences, yacht clubs, luxury hotels, exclusive restaurants and high-profile corporate facilities.

With a style for every aesthetic and a size for every space, Santa Barbara Designs is the preferred resource for an international set of design professionals, time after time, project after project.

Bench made in Southern California

Santa Barbara Designs' umbrellas are created entirely in their production facility on the California Coast, using locally sourced materials and vendors from the community.

Unique Design Options

Choose from hundreds of options to create your own bespoke umbrella. Customize your patio, poolside, garden or deck with your own interpretation of the classic market umbrella.

The Finest Woods & Metals

An umbrella of the finest quality begins with the finest materials available. Whether you select a wood frame in premium teak, warm oak, mahogany or maple, or a metal frame in aluminum or stainless steel, your umbrella will thrive outdoors, season after season.

Passionate Craftsmanship

Year after year our clients trust us to deliver a product that reflects their level of quality and taste - an umbrella like no other.

Our New Outdoor Lines!

4/1/2020

With everything going on right now, we wanted to share some happy news with you. It's been hard to contain our excitement, but now we're able to make it official -- we've taken on two amazing, new (to us) outdoor brands!! Both have their own personalities and we are pinching ourselves that we get to bring them to you, our wonderfully talented clients. We'll have them in our Digital Showroom soon (and in our actual showroom, of course), but in the meantime, we'd like to introduce you to them. Patio season is almost here, and if you're like us, you've probably been enjoying every bit of outside time lately -- it's time to create you or your client's outdoor oasis.

Selamat: Morris + Co

3/2/2020

MORRIS + CO. X SELAMAT

Selamat recently introduced a new collection inspired by the designs of the British heritage brand. Morris + Co. was founded in 1861 by William Morris, an artist who valued simplicity, craftsmanship and sustainable home décor, heavily inspired by flora and fauna.

A selection of Morris + Co.’s internationally recognized designs have been reinterpreted by Selamat as furniture, lighting and accessories, beginning a new chapter in the ongoing history of the Morris + Co. design library.

Pindler: Pendleton II by Sunbrella

2/20/2020

Pendleton II by Sunbrella® continues unfolding stories of the American West, symbolizing through woven material the Native American experience amidst the western frontier. Alongside nods to ancient traditions, spiritual connections and revered tribal leaders, the collection also pays homage to America’s National Parks and life in the great outdoors.

Pendleton by Sunbrella was born from the idea of bringing two heritage brands together, combining Pendleton Woolen Mills’ distinct aesthetic and the enduring performance qualities of Sunbrella fabrics.

Pindler: Luxury Wool Collection

1/22/2020

Pindler's new Luxury Wool Collection offers a timeless take on wool. These new introductions are perfect for any design aesthetic, ranging from a traditional interior to a very contemporary one.
