Universal Furniture and international supermodel businesswoman and mother Miranda Kerr have announced the introduction of Love. Joy. Bliss. a new collection inspired by the global style icon that captures her ideals of tranquility, authenticity and beauty transforming them into timeless yet practical home furnishings. The new whole home collection features nearly 50 furnishings for living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom and office.
“For our retailer partners, Miranda Kerr truly represents the type of customer we are working to connect to their stores—a 36-year-old mother who has a passion for creating beautiful and functional spaces,” said Universal Furniture Director of Marketing Neil MacKenzie.
The collection is contemporary in styling with clean lines, geometric shapes, feminine touches, soft pastel colors and nubby fabrics. Luxurious touches include mother-of-pearl inlays, soft-gold bases and lacquer finishes. Inspired by fashion and nature, the pieces are timeless, beautiful and inspiring but also practical for everyday life. Three finishes cover the case pieces: White Lacquer, Taupe Lacquer and a white wood grain named Alabaster. Hardware is a soft-gold finish.
“As someone who loves the sanctuary of home, it has always been a dream of mine to create my own collection of furniture,” said Miranda Kerr.
The collection name is more than a moniker. It is an intention. Love, joy and bliss are what it is designed to bring about in your own living space. The ideas is that not only does it look aesthetically pleasing but that it also promotes a warm, positive, loving energy in the home.
“Miranda had a vision for what she hoped to achieve with this collection based on her career in fashion and her travels around the world,” said MacKenzie. “We are both really pleased with the end result, and are excited to share it this fall.”
Renowned for her impeccable style and setting the agenda for upcoming fashion trends, Miranda was a hands-on collaborator with the Universal Furniture design team, specifying every detail – from design, materials, fabrics, colors and textures to the positive word of affirmation found hidden on each piece.
