RH Modern Releases 480-Page Source Book

RH (NYSE:RH), the retailer formerly known as Restoration Hardware, has released the 2017 RH Modern Source Book.

At 480 pages, the company said the comprehensive design resource presents one of the largest curated and fully integrated assortments of modern furnishings, lighting and décor under one brand in the world. RH said it has collaborated with some of the most respected designers, artisans, and manufacturers to bring this new collection to life.

Gary Friedman, RH chairman and CEO, commented, “We believe that vision is everything, and this new source book is filled with both vision and visionaries who are redefining the modern market, and inspiring a new and contemporary way to live."

Gracing the cover of the new source book is the Channel Dining Table by innovative artisans Thomas Bina and Ed Robinson. It is a pure linear form composed of American white oak bisected by a continuous channel, juxtaposed with a monolithic metal base.

Friedman said this season’s distinctive statement pieces reflect the leading Modern visionaries of our day. 

Renowned designer and curator John Birch of Wyeth combines clean lines and classic tufting echoing 1950s American minimalism with the Metropolitan Sofa; eminent interior designer Vicente Wolf’s signature spare and sumptuous style can be seen in the Modern Bali Bed – a reproduction of a Ming Dynasty-inspired piece he created for his own home in the Hamptons; and internationally-acclaimed designer Timothy Oulton’s penchant for relaxed modernism is reflected in the Como Modular Sofa – a customizable sectional offering generous proportions and low-slung comfort.

Additional noteworthy introductions include the Sand Walnut and Brass Collection by designer Barlas Baylar of Hudson Furniture, whose warm, minimalist pieces for living and dining are impeccably crafted of American walnut encased in lustrous brushed brass; and the Cela Shagreen and Solid Brass Collection, a luxe modernist design reflecting a refined 1970s aesthetic by Charlie Zagaroli.

Paying homage to icons of the past, RH Modern also unveils exclusive reissues of some of the most sought-after pieces of the modern era, such as venerated lighting pioneer Robert Sonneman’s 1967 Orbiter II Task Floor and Table Lamps, now rendered in solid brass as well as polished nickel; legendary American architect and furniture designer Adrian Pearsall’s Curve, Serpentine and Stratus sofas; midcentury master Milo Baughman’s Model #1283-113 Swivel Chair, 1965; and in tribute to famed 20th century Italian designer Mariano Fortuny, the Fortuny Gold-Leaf Icaro Chandelier.

RH’s continued collaboration with renowned rug scion Ben Soleimani yields 20 exclusive collections. Celebrating his passion for minimalism and abstract tonal designs, Soleimani pairs organic textures with lush, silken yarns and subtle metallic accents that blend tradition and innovation with the perspective of a contemporary artist.
