Haute Decor: The Haute 5 Home Decor Stores in Miami

Fendi Casa

When you hear the name Fendi, you know you’re getting luxury. The Fendi Casa Home Collection was created in 1989 as a natural evolution and a new important chapter of a great Italian business epic characterized by an unlimited creativity. This collection was launched in collaboration with Club House Italia, a company established in the 1970’s by Alberto Vignatelli who specializes in the production of upholstered furniture and related raw materials. Their aim is to “dress up” rooms in a way which is very similar to how Fendi designs its fur and precious leather coats, clothes and accessories.

Luminaire

Luminaire is more than a furniture showroom - It is a resource focused on creating environments. Every item sold, from a teaspoon to a sofa, is representative of a unifying design philosophy. It must be aesthetically appealing, make good functional sense and offer sound value. They represent some the most important names in the manufacturing of contemporary European furniture, lighting and accessories: B&B Italia, Boffi, Cappellini, Edra, Fritz Hansen, Ingo Maurer, Interlubke, Porro, MDF, Living Divani, Montis, Moroso and Vitra, to name a few. From design to installation, from the factory to you, Luminaire is there every step of the way and has been pioneering modern design for more than 33 years. They believe that good design is always classic and their collection reflects their experience in pioneering modern design; fusing form, function and quality for a point of view you can trust.
