Pieces from Dallas-based leather upholstery manufacturer American leather will be featured in designer Vladimir Kagan’s redesign of the historic Morelli house in Las Vegas. The renovated residence opens to the public April 9.
Kagan has redesigned the home’s living room and other family areas with select pieces from his designer collections.
American Leather’s donations included two Zoe sofas for the main living room of the Morelli house. The sofas, a revival of Kagan’s classic organic-shaped sofa, will be shown in SuedeLife Ruby, and are located in the main living room of the Morelli house.
For accent design, American Leather has provided three Spyro ottomans, also in the living area.
“The Morelli house is a special project providing a resource for interior designers and consumers alike,” said Matthew Hayward, vice president of marketing for American Leather. “The company also sees this project as an opportunity to tap into the Las Vegas furniture Market which is a growing region in the home furnishings sector.”
The Morelli house will receive a designation from the City of Las Vegas on the public opening date from the Nevada State Register of Historic Places. An interpretive study of the house will lead to a published book and stand-alone Web site.
