RH Announces Opening of The Gallery on Greenwich Avenue

RH announced the opening of RH Estates, The Gallery on Greenwich Avenue in Greenwich, Connecticut, an immersive destination marking the North American debut of the brand's latest concept, RH Estates, and its first freestanding Gallery in the world. Previewed at RH Milan during Salone del Mobile and introduced with the opening of RH London, RH Estates will significantly expand its retail presence across the globe this year, followed by a second freestanding RH Estates Gallery on Melrose Avenue in Los Angeles opening in 2027.

Located across from RH Outdoor Greenwich and steps from RH Greenwich, The Gallery at the Historic Post Office, the new Gallery brings RH Estates and hospitality together to complete the

first RH Ecosystem in the heart of the Greenwich Avenue Historic District.

RH Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Gary Friedman commented, "Greenwich marks a pivotal moment for our brand as we introduce the first freestanding RH Estates Gallery in the world, an immersive and eclectic expression of rare and collectable historical designs of the highest quality previously only available at exclusive to-the-trade showrooms.' Mr. Friedman continued, "RH Estates includes exclusive designs from Michael Taylor, the godfather of the California Look who Architectural Digest called one of the '20 Greatest Designers of All Time?' His iconic Diamond Table, which has graced the lobby of Napa Valley's Auberge du Soleil since its opening in 1981, and his famous Jennifer Chair and Sofa, which he designed for Academy Award-winning actress Jennifer Jones in the 1970s, are both available for viewing at RH Estates Greenwich. RH Estates also features collections from renowned interior designers Richard Hallberg and Daniel Cuevas, who together launched Formations and acquired Dennis & Leen, blending classical reproductions with contemporary pieces, creating a stylistic vocabulary that is

layered and looked to have been collected over time.”

Mr. Friedman concluded, "Our acquisitions over the past six years of Michael Taylor Designs, Formations, Dennis & Leen, Joseph Jeup and Dmitriy & Co, plus our decades-long relationships with many of the world's most distinguished antique collectors, such as Ed Hardy of San Francisco, Ludovic Messager, who set the tone and trends at the world famous Paris Flea Market, and Rebecca Hill of London and Mougins, as well as designers such as Anouska Hempel, the inventor of Blakes, the first and most famous boutique hotel in the world, who also created The Perch Restaurant and World of RH Bar & Lounge at RH London, and the many designers, artisans and manufacturers we work with around the world, represent a collective effort of taste, talent, experience and scale unseen before in our industry.”

PASS THROUGH THE ORNATE DOORS OF SCROLLED GILDED IRON AND GLASS into the

Great Room, where a grand staircase of wrought iron and gold leaf ascends from limestone floors, beneath a ceiling adorned with intricate cornice detailing and sculpted medallions, illuminated by Venetian glass chandeliers.

DINE AT CUCINA ANGELINA, RH’S FIRST ITALIAN RESTAURANT IN NORTH AMERICA,

NAMED FOR MR. FRIEDMAN’S MOTHER, ANGELINA ASCARI. At the heart of Cucina Angelina

is Mr. Friedman’s personal tribute to his mother’s Italian heritage and to his uncle Geno Ascari, whose love of cooking brought the family together for Sunday dinners. Inspired by the belief that the time we spend around a table with the people we love has a way of staying with us, the restaurant is designed to create an experience unlike any other – built not for the moment, but for the memory.

DEFINED BY A WARM, SINGULAR AESTHETIC, the space is wrapped in floor-to-ceiling rift-sawn

European white oak and layered with Crema Emperador marble, herringbone floors, Italian burnt caramel velvet banquettes and a coffered ceiling, with architectural lighting creating a soft glow throughout. First debuted at RH Milan, the menu features Italian classics, wood-fired pizzas and enduring RH favorites in an intimate 88-seat setting.

GATHER AT THE BAR AND LOUNGE, A GLOWING JEWEL BOX, where a striking bar sculpted of

Crema Emperador marble is framed in European oak millwork, serving signature cocktails, fine wines and Champagnes from around the world.

IMMERSE YOURSELF IN ARTISTIC INSTALLATIONS OF RH ESTATES, AMPLIFYING THE

WORK OF THE WORLD'S MOST LEGENDARY DESIGNERS AND ATELIERS. The collections

Dmitriy & Co – all recently acquired by RH.
