Ralph Lauren: Classic Cool



Here are two photos from the Ralph Lauren Home Collection. I think both pieces speak to the idea of Classic Cool.

In the top photo, there is a regular chair with nail head trim. But instead of the normal wood grain legs, it instead has high gloss black painted legs. Also, the fabric chosen is half white and half black though slightly more white to give it more of an asymmetrical feel. I think this a great piece of furniture that is classic and timeless with a modern twist.

The lower photo is of a night stand that is made of a trunk with a four legged stand. Once again, a classic timeless piece re purposed to form a new function but still incorporating its heritage. I think this trunk is one of the best things I've seen from Ralph Lauren Home.

-There I said it
