The collection encompasses a vast array of furniture, furnishings, décor, and lighting designed for every corner of the home, infusing a touch of luxury into daily living.
Inspiration from Global Craftsmanship: The Rose Pendant and Clay Petals
The Rose Pendant, a notable piece in the collection, showcases the fingerprints of its makers. Crafted from clay petals, each one is hand-formed, celebrating the beauty of imperfection and creating economic opportunities for the community. This attention to craftsmanship is a hallmark of the BR Home collection.
Creating a Sanctuary: Luxurious Materials and Earthy Tones
In response to the heightened importance of homes as sanctuaries during the COVID lockdown. BR Home focuses on creating a true sanctuary that reflects personal style. Luxurious materials such as luxe linens, textural bouclé, lush cotton cashmere, fine marble, rich wood, and lustrous bronze come together in a soft neutral color palette of earth tones and natural finishes. The result is a whisper of quiet luxury, striking an elevated and elegant yet welcoming and warm aesthetic.
Chicago Bed: A Low-Slung Platform Design
The Chicago Bed, crafted in North Carolina, introduces a low-slung platform design with a rounded back that flows into graceful wings. Therefore, creating a sheltering feel. Framed in hardwood and expertly upholstered in various fabrics, this bed exemplifies the timeless design featured in the BR Home collection.
Three Aesthetic Themes: Textured Modern, Classic Chic, and Explorer
The BR Home collection is curated around three primary aesthetics that seamlessly integrate into modern living spaces. “Textured Modern” blends classic with contemporary, featuring clean lines, smooth finishes, mixed materials, and minimalist style. “Classic Chic” offers traditional forms with updated touches, reflecting signature shapes and finishes in a contemporary light. “Explorer” brings an international flair, showcasing global artisanal craftsmanship and embroideries.
