Our Biltmore™ Chateau Reserve Collection draws its inspiration from the  entertainment and hospitality that defined the landmark Asheville, North Carolina estate at the turn of the century.  The collection’s grand scale designs and accent furnishings perfectly reflect the art, architecture, history and ambiance of the estate.

George Washington Vanderbilt, world-traveler, art aficionado and grandson of famed railroad industrialist Cornelius Vanderbilt, completed Biltmore House in 1895.  The 250-room French Renaissance-style chateau, tucked away in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville, North Carolina, was first and foremost a home.  It was also an oasis for Vanderbilt’s family and friends to retreat from city life to a timeless world of elegance and refinement.  Comforting, yet uncommon.

Our vision for this collection has been to create furniture in keeping with the Vanderbilt vision — designs that enable the discerning individual to escape from everyday life. The quality, artistic style and versatility of our Biltmore line invite you  to truly express your own sense of style.

A key growth area in our custom category is the dressing room.  We’re seeing increasing demand in both new home construction as well as renovation projects of older homes.   From Old World looks to grand American casual influences, we invite our clients to  choose from a vast palette of hand-styled finishes, wood stains, design styles and custom cabinetry options to create a luxurious and fabulously functional area that marries quality design with modern convenience.

Completely customized to meet space and wardrobe needs,  our custom dressing room designs can include everything from a storage island,   wide, deep drawers to plentiful shelving for shoes and accessories, hanging bars ,mirrors , space for luggage, safes, hampers and much more.

Whether your space is large or small, we can create a luxurious retreat that is as fabulous as it is functional.  Visit our website to  see some of our recent dressing room projects.

Among the pieces in the new American Treasures ® collection is the Southfield Chest, shown here, which brings simple lines together with a soft, muted finish to create a rich look.

The 2011 color of the year – PANTONE 18-2120 Honeysuckle – encouraged us to face everyday troubles with verve and vigor. Tangerine Tango, a spirited reddish orange, continues to provide the energy boost we need to recharge and move forward.

“Sophisticated but at the same time dramatic and seductive, Tangerine Tango is an orange with a lot of depth to it,” said Leatrice Eiseman, executive director of the Pantone Color Institute ®. “Reminiscent of the radiant shadings of a sunset, Tangerine Tango marries the vivaciousness and adrenaline rush of red with the friendliness and warmth of yellow, to form a high-visibility, magnetic hue that emanates heat and energy.”

To arrive at the selection of color of the year, Pantone quite literally combs the world looking for color influences. This can include the entertainment industry and films that are in production, traveling art collections, hot new artists, popular travel destinations and other socio-economic conditions. Influences may also s tem from technology, availability of new textures and effects that impact color, and even upcoming sports events that capture worldwide attention.

How might this color play out in home interiors? Pantone suggests that you can energize interior spaces with Tangerine Tango patterned home accessories. Pillows, bedspreads and tabletop accessories in this high-impact hue add spice to any room. Or incorporate Tangerine Tango appliances and personal electronics for an unexpected pop of color. Looking for an inexpensive way to perk up your home? Paint a wall in Tangerine Tango for a dynamic burst of energy in the kitchen, entryway or hallway.

This particular copyrighted furniture design takes its inspiration from the many pieces and architectural elements found throughout the estate’s lovely  Louis XV Suite.  Restored to its original splendor, this suite offers visitors the first opportunity to fully see the house as a family home and the Vanderbilts as parents. The Louis XV Room itself is perhaps the true heart of Biltmore. It served as birthplace of George and Edith Vanderbilt’s only daughter, Cornelia, in 1900. Years later, it was where Cornelia delivered her own two sons, George Henry Vanderbilt Cecil and William Amherst Vanderbilt Cecil in 1925 and 1928, respectively.  To learn more about this amazing home , be sure to visit www.biltmore.com
