"Updated traditionalism seems to be everywhere. Interior Design is taking a cue from fashion and incorporating color, florals and pattern into rooms. We're specifically seeing a trend towards organic modern. A softer, prettier version of Mid-Century Modern," said Luca Rensi, deputy general manager.  

Noteworthy new introductions pair original finishes, such as leather, washed oak veneer and lacquer, with brass sabots, woven jute panels and cane detailing making pieces appropriate for formal or casual settings. 

"Our latest introductions play with organic materials like cane or refined silky grasscloth coordinated with high end details like polished brass details," said Marina Lanina, head of design.

The acclaimed Karen Collection integrates these classic Bungalow 5 artisanal features, including a lacquer finish, handwoven bleached cane, and polished brass framing and accents. The combination of elements allows each piece to anchor a wide spectrum of interior decorating styles. The Karen can be "dressed up" by pairing it with dramatic bamboo metallic wallpaper from Farrow & Ball and embellished with a brass mirror and chic accessories, perfect for a Palm Beach bungalow. The collection can also be easily incorporated into a casual setting with neutral paint and natural materials such as limed oak and linen. 

Trade-only members can purchase directly via Bungalow 5's website. End consumers can purchase through Bungalow 5 eCommerce partners, including Perigold, Candelabra, Clayton Gray and others.
