Beeline Home Debuts

Some say a well-designed home flourishes when there's balance - a mix of old and new, warm and cool, and high and low pieces. Right now we get along perfectly fine with a tilt of the scale toward the low end (re: big box stores, flea markets, Craigslist, etc.) but we'd happily make room for few pieces of well-made, high quality furniture to add to our home...

And interior designer Bunny Williams' new line of home furnishings has several of such pieces. Here are a few of our favorites:

Several pieces for the Beeline Home collection.

Hourglass Table

Work Horse Desk (we love that you can conceal your computer wiring in the brushed steel supports)

Nailhead Sofa

Eglomise Coffee Table

Beeline Home is now available in the city at Kendall Wilkinson Home.

What lovely pieces - so unlike the typical retail offerings.

I want to make a snarky comment about buying furniture from anyone named "Bunny", but said furniture is so beautiful that the snark dries in my throat. I'd kill for the Paladian Partner's Desk ($4,410).

Maybe I'll have a word with Rutherford and Bunty down at the yacht club and see if they can put in a good word for me...

The garden panel is simply lovely.

"I want to make a snarky comment about buying furniture from anyone named "Bunny"..."

Considering her given name is Bruce...

I love the big, square white painting or sculpture or whatever it is on the wall. If that's a part of Bunny Williams' new collection, then she certainly has come a long way from her days with Sister Parish.

Puhlease... Over $800 for a THROW PILLOW?

i just got my Bottom's Up drinks table and i have to say it was worth the price! it is unique and so useful in my quite small apartment. i have managed to "need" it every night since i brought it home.
the wall relief is indeed part of the collection and is beautiful in person! i saw it at the Kip's Bay Showhouse. i love the sofa as well but can't rationalize it's price at this time. (not to mention it won't fit into my apartment.) the other thing that i wish would fit into my life is the Hourglass table - really beautiful.
and yes, $800 for a single pillow does seem a bit excessive but it is hand embroidered and hey, you don't have to buy it!

No thanks! Like all too much designer furniture, the prices are insane for what you seem to get. Almost anyone can design furniture that looks good when price is no object, but a good designer should be able to design furniture that both looks good and is reasonably priced.
