Century Furniture Spring Lifestyle

This spring Century explores the ideas of confidence, continuity, and collected wisdom. From an urban bohemian lifestyle infused with earthy and saturated colors to a story of the modern curated home, the presentations depict less of the “what we put in our homes” and more of the “how we live and put it together.” The rooms feel effortless but are layered with subtle nuance and details and showcase the strength of Century’s finish and fabric offering. Mixing Thomas O’Brien pieces with new Bob Timber-lake pieces and other new items from the Maison ‘47 Collection, Century artfully shows us how to create collected rooms that feel lived in rather than decorated.

A Curated Home 

The Curated Home is all about this concept of home as a gallery, an ever changing space where furniture moves around as needed instead of being set in one place to live in perpetuity. Rooms should evolve as we collect and curate our lives through time. The colors here are inspired by mineral hues. A punch of citrine awakens the grays and spa blues in one room, while in another gallery Rose Quartz acts as the neutral mixing with taupe and beige. #CenturyCurated #Citrine #Rosequartz #Madebyhand

Organic Modern

Organic modern is the juxtaposition of rus-tic more casual settings with modern things. A contemporary sofa against a planked wall. We were inspired by William Wurster, an early American architect, and his work. Ivory, taupes and powdery and slatey blues mix on modern upholstery. #CenturyOrganicModern #artofmixing #rootedinhistory #Madebyhand

Resort

Not meant to conjure a physical place, Century’s Resort Lifestyle is more about a state of mind. Nostalgic prints made youthful and modern with coloration and scale mix with a range of furniture styles showcased in Century’s white lacquer and a new finish, Eden, to create playful rooms. This lifestyle is all about not taking things too seriously, kicking up your feet and living the good life, wher-ever that might be. #CenturyResort #Eden #RobertAllen #MadcapCottage #Madebyhand

Design Creativity At J Lambeth

PURPOSE, PASSION AND CREATIVITY—all are paramount if your dream is to make an authentic impact in the world through any artistic endeavor.

Like Van Gogh, Hartmann & Forbes has discovered and realized their unique point of view. Their purpose is to help the designer of luxury interior spaces create sanctuary through natural design.

This authentic and unique perspective is rooted in Their love of nature and all of its many inspirations. Connecting with the natural world actuates the process of reunification, rebalance and renewal.

This year, Hartmann & Forbes tore down the walls that kept them from fulfilling their purpose. Their focus was on the ideas that truly move them—concepts that propel their artistic expressions. 

Crosshatch

They refined their collections to reflect this vision. This Spring, you will find an eclectic mixture of coordinated products, adding new colorways, textures and designs to the natural offering. The Hartmann & Forbes team has also spent months conceiving our print Reference Guide Kit for 2016 in an effort to showcase our broadening range of natural products.
