I really like the simple modern look of the Ferris chair by Sunpam Imports. Their "classic meets modern" theme is very inviting and a nice break from the norm. Sunpam has taken some past favorites like velvet fabrics and tufts and put a new spin on them for a fresh updated look. The Ferris chair is just a sampling of the cool modern styles offered in almost every category for the classic modern décor. Perfect for a round dining table or as a stand alone occasional chair. Available in cream, brown and red top grain leather 21.5"x24"x32.5"
If you are into rustic furniture then these gorgeous pieces from Artitalia Group will surely be worth a close look. The rich detail and old world appeal are so striking it's as if they were many generation old. The Artitalia Group was born in Venice Italy, which is notorious for artistic talents and a strong focus on quality in 1989. Their entire collection includes the Rustico Toscano series that specializes in a heavy unrefined look, the Decorati series that has a lighter look with floral designs, and the Vere Antichita collection that features very detailed inlays. If their selection is not what you'r looking for they will do handmade custom work so you can be the artist.

The entire collection includes decorative pillows, curtain panels, upholstered headboards, ottomans, and throws for a complete selection of decorating options. My favorite is the Langdon with its stately flair and striking color combinations, it has such a rich look.
As a native of Houston, I am always hoping we will shake our image as a traditional "cow town" mostly because I am so into modern furniture and architecture. Well here is a fine example of how we are trading in our southern roots and heading into the new millennium with some serious style. Metropolitan Home's house of the month is a beautiful and very clean modern structure that works very well with classic contemporary furniture and art work. The expansive home has some natural aspects like stone walls, wood and stone floors, and unique metal work to give it a very natural appeal. Normally these types of materials are cold and hard but the architect used rich colors and created a very warm effect. I especially like the straight lines of the furniture and how it's low and long scale work so well with the high ceilings creating a timeless look.
