Santa Barbara Designs: Inspirations for 2021

4/1/2021

THE SLIM AARONS AMERICAN ICON COLLECTION

With its new lineup, Santa Barbara Designs pays homage to the iconic work of Slim Aarons, one of the most famous photographers of the 20th century.

Slim Aarons loved to photograph "beautiful people in beautiful places, doing beautiful things."

For Outdoor 2021, Santa Barbara Designs re-imagines several stand-out umbrellas in "those beautiful places surrounded by those beautiful people" in our 2021 Slim Aarons American Icon Collection. The collection borrows from three of his most well-known images.

3/27/2019

Spring has sprung, and it is officially outdoor season!
Yes, we'll still get some wintry weather here and there, but with our weather reaching the 70s this week, we declare it's time to enjoy the outdoors.

We've put together a collection of outdoor furniture, lighting, planters, and umbrellas that we currently have here in our showroom (and a few that are arriving any day). We invite you to come in to see and sit in everything. Of course, there are MANY other outdoor varieties not shown on the floor, so know that you are not limited to what you see.

Hoff Miller Roundup: Umbrellas

Santa Barbara Designs

If you've ventured into our showroom lately, it's likely that you've noticed two brand new umbrellas. If you haven't been in lately, or maybe don't reside in Denver, you're in luck, because we've put together our "Umbrella Roundup," just for you. We believe outdoor season is year-round (especially in the Rocky Mountain States), but it is fun to create fresh new outdoor spaces each Spring/Summer.

We're super fortunate to be carrying two FABULOUS umbrella lines who are known for their superb materials, craftsmanship, and style. Santa Barbara Designs and Royal Botania. Keep scrolling for umbrella design inspiration and fun videos.

Introducing: Royal Botania

3/30/2018

Royal Botania - Hoff Miller

We're pleased to introduce our new line, Royal Botania! Based in Belgium, Royal Botania has earned an acclaimed reputation for creating the most refined, diverse choice of outdoor collections in the world. At a variety of price-points, styles, and shipping times, we know you'll love this exciting new line!

Quality

Royal Botania's dedicated team has created a line of exceptional products for devotees of aesthetic refinement. The successful blend of precision and functionality is aimed at fulfilling each and every wish of their customers. To achieve this, their full focus is on quality in every single step; from the creation, to production, distribution and after-sales service. No detail is overlooked.

As Leonardo Da Vinci once said,
"Details make perfection, but perfection is not a detail"

When it comes to the materials, only the very best is good enough. After all, their products are sold worldwide and must therefore be as resistant to the desert heat in Dubai, as to the frigid Canadian winters, or the high UV-exposure under the Australian summer-sun (or Colorado sun!).

Environment

Only carefully selected mature teak wood is used, all of which originates from plantations or harvested in strict accordance with the "sustainable forest" policy, promoted by the WWF.

Royal Botania products are built to last for many generations, but even so, they are prepared for how they may affect the environment in the future. All metal and man-made materials in their collections are nearly 100% recyclable.

Environmental issues are one of the main principles of Royal Botania’s business governance. That’s why they have direct control on the environmental and social impact of their manufacturing process.

Royal Botania in the USA

In recent years, Royal Botania has created a presence in the United States. We are fortunate to be one of few (so far) to represent such a beautiful outdoor line. And we're especially excited that the product is suitable for residential, commercial, and hospitality environments. We love that this is a true designer line. Their product is not sold in retail environments or online, giving designers a protected, exclusive product that is sure to impress their clients.

An added bonus is that the most popular styles from their line are stocked in the US. This means faster lead times for those fast paced projects. With a variety of price-points, we know Royal Botania will help you shine!
