Our goal is to create custom cabinetry and fine furniture designs that help you create a warm, welcoming Habersham Home environment of your own — one that reflects your own personality and wraps guests in an atmosphere of comfort and casual elegance.  In keeping with  that goal, we’re adding more new designs to our newest collection of copyrighted furniture designs – -American Treasures®.

Featuring piecies like the Loft Bookcase (shown here), American Treasures® takes its inspiration from classic styles that have been updated and simplified — offering versatile looks, timeless styles and clean, simple lines that are at home in traditional or contemporary settings.  Be sure to visit the American Treasure® section of our website to see more designs.

“According to The Pew Research Center’s 2011 Internet and American Life Survey Spring Tracking Survey, nearly eight out of 10 adults in the U.S. (78%) use the Internet these days, and adoption of social media continues to skyrocket, with two-thirds of Internet users now taking to social media, up from around half just two years ago.

In light of these numbers, Research Institute for Cooking & Kitchen Intelligence (RICKI) recently conducted an analysis of online conversations to explore what consumers want in their “dream kitchens.” From 1,400 posts occurring in online forums and on message boards during a six-month period beginning in January 2011 and continuing through June, RICKI extracted 428 that were most relevant to the home kitchen sector for further analysis. 

The most popular topic regarding dream kitchens is cabinets, with close to half of all conversations (45%) revolving around cabinetry and islands. Nearly a quarter talked about wanting an island or wanting to expand or reconfigure their existing one. People also discussed cabinet materials and finishes, as well as changing the color of their cabinets to match their existing home decor. Countertops were the subject of nearly a third of the conversations (30%), with granite and other natural stone surfaces accounting for nearly half of these discussions. Cooking appliances came in third, figuring in more than a quarter of the online posts.”

How are you gathering information for your dream kitchen?  Are there details and certain types of information Habersham can be providing on our website, Facebook and/or Twitter feeds to help you make decisions?  Let us know!  And, if you’d like to read more about this study, click here

There’s little question that the kitchen is the heart of today’s home.  It’s where we share meals and conversations with family and friends.  It’s the place guests inevitably gravitate to during any party or gathering –especially Thanksgiving!

These issues get to the very heart of what we’re striving for  at Habersham with our hand-styled custom kitchen cabinetry – casually elegant, highly functional designs that truly reflect the homeowners’ own personality, lifestyle and design sensibilities.

We would welcome the opportunity to help you create the kitchen of your dreams – one that promises to become the true heart of your home

During the recent Fall High Point Market , we unveiled a number of new copyrighted furniture designs that now join our American Treasures ® Collection.  Following in the footsteps of the other pieces in the collection, these new additions represent our  response to growing demand from many of our  interior design and homeowner clients who are seeking transitional furniture designs with simpler lines and cleaner styles.  These pieces take their inspiration from classic styles that have been updated and simplified.

One of the most popular new introductions, the seven-drawer Apothecary Chest offers a delightful accent option.  We chose to show three separate chests lined up together in our showroom to highlight the piece’s versatility.  As with all designs in the collection, this chest is available in any of our hand-styled finish options.  It is also offered   in a 6-drawer style.  We’ll be showcasing more of our new intros in upcoming posts so look for more information coming soon.

A study in simplicity and style, this was just one of the many new additions to Habersham’s  growing American Treasures ® Collection of copyrighted furniture designs.  Available in any of our hand styled finish options, this piece promises to blend seamlessly into any setting.

Last week I showed you one of our most popular new introductions, the seven-drawer Apothecary Chest.   I also thought you’d like to see the 6-drawer version, shown here.    As with all designs in the collection, this chest is available in any of our hand-styled finish options.  Be sure to explore our site to see other American Treasures® pieces.

We invite all dealers, designers and other trade members to visit our showroom – Market Square, First Floor, Space 142, between October 22-27, 2011 to see our newest designs.  We’ll be open from 8 am – 6 p.m daily and look forward to seeing you!
