Designer Karim Rashid has created so many great pieces that surely he cannot do another, right? Well, I stand corrected. Here is a white sideboard for a contemporary furniture fan that wants to store away dinnerware, silver, and other items. This sideboard could also work as a media storage cabinet in a living room providing space to store away things that you do not want seen every day by your guests. Influence for this piece comes from waves of the ocean as you can see in the detail of the decorative lines that embrace this piece. Via.
You may have seen Furniture Fashion's review on the more modern reception and lounge seating by Bernhardt Designs, and here are a few of their more classic styles.

Bernhardt Designs is the newest line from the Bernhardt, a name synonymous with American made quality. In addition to these beautiful lounge / guest room chairs, Bernhardt offers a complete collection of conference and executive chairs to complete your professional office environment.
I am a big fan of Durapebble Khaki Reclining Sofas like you see in the picture. Ashley Furniture is usually known for its traditional furniture style. This design inspiration for this piece draws upon the roots of Italian sofa manufacturers such as Natuzzi. Modern Italian design has a way of making a piece appear "softer" and a bit smaller which allows for it to not become the dominant piece in a living room. Another great element of the Durapebble is that it gives you options about accent pieces. Since it is more transitional, you have the chance to mix and match modern and traditional pieces along with this sofa. Available: here.
You have to admit that red makes a statement in any living room. This is precisely what the Alladio Crimson sofas from Ashley Furniture are designed to do. Crimson is a softer shade of red so as to not make "too bold" a statement for a more traditional home. I like how the throw pillows bring out some other colors in the picture and show other color possibilities. Let's face it. Red is fun, so this may be the right piece to showcase in your living room.

The Flow sofa features a contrast of colors like much of what you would see in a common domino. Black and white combine to make a cool looking design fit for a contemporary home setting. This piece comes from Indera Furniture and is designed by Xavier Lust. The frame has been constructed from a single sheet of aluminum. The one piece construction technique creates a futuristic feel since there are no seams anywhere on the frame. The frame is then powder coated with paint which creates a stunning finish. This piece can be used both indoors and outdoors, because its construction methods decrease its vulnerability to moisture. Outdoor cushions are available should you choose to use this on a patio area. Via.
