Donghia Suite 631 Donghia’s fall 2013 textile collection takes cues from the artistry of a Spanish matador’s performance. Comprised of 11 patterns, each textile embodies the essence of movement, drawing parallels between culture, its surroundings and the dance of a singular performer. Seen throughout the collection are hints of shimmer and embroidery, inspired by the elaborately embellished matador’s costume, known as traje de luces “suit of lights.”
SHOWROOM PRODUCT DEBUTS 6th Floor

Century Furniture Suite 1464 Century Furniture’s newest collection, Rue de Seine, was conceived by Paris designer Patrick Aubriot as a tribute to French 20th century furniture, with accents of modernity as his own signature. Delicate forms, clean lines and sophisticated veneers make a collection that is fresh and modern. “I do not think we can actually create new forms, but rather use our inspiration to capture the forms of yesterday and bring them into our lives.”—Patrick Aubrio
