WHAT'S NEW WITH YOU BUNGALOW 5?

As it turns out, a lot is new! Bungalow 5 co-founder Luca Rensi started his company with partner John Roudabush, who was away when I stopped into their NYC showroom for a visit. Rensi and I first met years ago when we both worked for interior designer David Kleinberg. I am constantly amazed at their prolific design ability, along with Marina Lanina, they continue to dream up so many unique and wonderful pieces every season. Championing wrapped lacquer, the classic Parsons Table and traditional go-to's, Bungalow 5 is going great guns.

This designing duo travels constantly. The million mile member program? Yes, Luca is a member of that. But they still manage to find the time to style their New York based flagship showroom to the hilt, located at 251 West 30th Street.
