Furniture World Magazine

Smith Furniture Manufacturing announced that they will be premiering their new Lifestylist® Design line at the Las Vegas Market January 29 - February 2, 2007. Smith Furniture is the exclusive licensee for the Lifestylist® Design Upholstery line and is excited that they were chosen to produce the line that takes a fresh look at how furniture is designed and will appeal to today's new generation of buyers. Smith Furniture maintains a permanent showroom on the 10th Floor of the A building - Suite 1000,at the World Market Center. "I approach the design process a bit differently than most designers which is why I consider myself a Lifestylist® rather than a traditional designer" stated Suzanne Felber. "Not only do I take into consideration how the furniture looks, but I'm also very concerned about how it feels and how it can enhance the lifestyle of the consumer." The dynamic Duo of Harry and Mark Smith at Smith Furniture understand how quickly the furniture market is changing and will now be offering lines manufactured at their Waco, Texas facility as well as overseas. ''This joint venture with Ms. Felber provides an adventurous new vehicle to continue our mission of transcending innovation and exceeding customer's expectations. A person's home reflects the spirit of the individual. A sofa offers a glimpse into their personality. After 68 years and four generations of Smith's, consumers continue to invite us into their living rooms. Placing our last name on the products we manufacture demonstrates our commitment to servicing the needs of the consumer with high-quality well priced furniture'' stated Mark Smith, VP and fourth generation. As part of the Lifestylist® Design offerings, Felber will be introducing products for specific markets such as manufactured housing and senior housing. An example of this is the product she has designed for builder Patriot Homes. The Lifestylist® has designed six fully furnished model homes that will be featured at the Louisville Manufactured Housing Show January 16th - 18th. Smith Furniture Mfg, home of our signature Smith Style & Quality, has been transcending innovation since 1939. Internationally acclaimed Lifestylist® Suzanne Felber has been involved in the housing industry for over 30 years and has designed award winning homes for builders coast-to-coast.
