The RH Contemporary collection features:

Made-in-Italy Upholstery collections designed by Ann Marie Vering, Los Angeles; Victoria Sala, London; and Jan te Lintelo, Amsterdam, covered in luxurious fabrics by Holland & Sherry, the venerable British textiles company that has been producing for Savile Row tailors and couturiers around the world since 1836.

Italian Travertine, the stone of the eternal city of Rome and its historic Colosseum completed in 80 AD, fashioned into contemporary furniture collections by French Architectural Digest top 100 designer Joris Poggioli, Paris, and American designer John Birch, New York.

Organic shapes inspired by Italian designs of the 1970s reinterpreted in aged oak by Harrison and Nicholas Condos, Sydney, and Charlie Zagaroli, High Point.

Burl Veneers, the imperfect grain, perfectly vein-matched and polished into a high gloss reflecting the Art Deco movement of the 1920s and Hollywood Regency styles of the 1950s, reimagined by RH in a contemporary collection spanning living, dining and bedroom.

Illuminating the collections is lighting by designers Alison Berger, Los Angeles; Jonathan Browning, San Francisco; Ryan Korban, New York; Timothy Oulton, London; and Ron Mann, Sonoma.

The collection is accented with African-inspired ceramics by Brooklyn designer Dina Nur Satti, and hand-woven textiles designed by Neeru Kumar, New Delhi.
