Kravet, Lee Jofa, Ralph Lauren, and Brunschwig and Fils

The L.A. design center is always a great place to go and to find inspirations for clients. Kravet's showroom had some fun vignettes.






We were looking at fabrics and furniture. Kravet has some wonderful furniture and a line of fabrics that are beautiful. They also have a fabric line that is called "smart fabric".
  There is no extra charge for fabrics if you choose from the smart line. 





What do you think about using pink or mauve in your home?







Great neutral palette.









This is Ralph Lauren's beautiful fabrics on a Kravet sofa. Love the black floral pillows with the white sofa. Notice the black trim details at the bottom of the sofa. 







Love the blue and white jars!








These little numbers were with R.L's fabrics. OK, we should have put them underneath the sofa picture. No one is perfect!

We also visited the Lee Jofa showroom were we saw this gorgeous chair with Brunschwig and Fils' fabric. Love!








Notice the trim detail! This is what sets your  home apart when you work with a designer. Those little details that add the extra touches and interest. It looks designed and not like everyone 
else's home. 









Love, love, love!

The border is incorporated into the fabric design.








Lee Jofa set the stage with this wonderful rug and complemented it with beautiful fabrics in grays, whites and browns. 








Hope you enjoyed the tour through the showrooms.

  6. Fun to see a showroom in LA it looks surprisingly like ours at the Boston Design Center, go figure. I liked a lot of the fabrics you've shown and since I'm scouting for some for our living room this helped me a lot so thank you both.

    Enjoy your week!

  7. I LOVE the floral pieces, and the furnishings are gorgeous. The blue and white is my favorite, and I love every single chair, especially the Brunschwig and Fils' single flower. Perfection.
    Thank you for sharing these rooms. So unique and new.
    Happy Monday.

  10. I still twitch when I think of pink and mauve from my commercial interior days back in the mid 80's. Pink and mauve commercial interiors look awful!!!

    I'm there with you on little details making a big difference. Brunschwig and Kravet are two of the best! Sally is looking at a stack of fabrics from both Boston showrooms right now as she prepares for a client presentation. We have clients who love Ralph Lauren. Personally, I struggle with the proportions and detailing of a great deal of R L's furniture. Some of it may have to do with the scale, proportion and detailing of many New England homes - smaller and more delicate.

    Cheers,
    John

  11. I love going to the design center for inspiration, and these showrooms are among my favorites!

    Not really a pink person, but I like the use of pink in the Kravet and Lee Jofa vignettes. I particularly like that Suzanne Kaslet floral on the chair, and how the showroom carried the pink tomes into solid pillows on the sofa.

  25. Kravet seems to consistently have fabrics that I love, but that Brunschwig and Fils fabric on the chair is pretty darn amazing and unique!

  26. Hi there!
    It is me, Penelope!

    Kravet has rescued my very favorite fabric house....."Brunschwig et Fils" I was devastated that they were bankrupt! I started being a "decorator " 43 years ago....Brunschwig was a "stalwart"! Thank God Kravet bought it!

    I will always be grateful.......and I think you will be too!!
