High-end residential furniture resource Century Furniture in partnership with Richard Frinier has announced the launch of a new collection called Tangier, which draws its inspiration from the beauty and charm of Morocco.
Designer Richard Frinier says, “The Tangier collection embodies a strong sense of place capturing the romantic and exotic essence of authentic Moorish architecture that I discovered on an extended stay in Morocco.”
Distinctive forms with arched Moroccan design details are accentuated with a hand-woven and open-weave pattern with a very specific fretwork motif. Tangier is part of a larger collection of dining and lounge furniture for indoor/outdoor use intended to create a resort-at-home environment. The design aesthetic is combined with a high level of detail, and artisan craftsmanship.
Tangier’s modern appeal includes a crescent-shaped and modular lounge with coordinating woven or teak occasional tables.
“Richard Frinier’s newest collection, Tangier, shows a progression into more mixed materials, says Haynes King, director of outdoor for Century Furniture. “Mixing natural teak with scagliola stone on occasional pieces complements the all-weather resin woven frames. It continues our opulent scale in an updated transitional collection.”
Century Furniture exhibits at the High Point Market at 200 Steele, Floor 2, in showroom 213.
