Design team Studiopepe first introduced the stunning LAZYBONES dining chair for the 2019 Baxter collection. The design feels eclectic and fresh, with a retro vibe, a poetic vision, and rigorous design craftsmanship. And in the latest 2020 Collection, they've included yet another take on it, this time around in the realization of LAZYBONES LOUNGE

"It's a very active market right now in Miami with international clients finally flying into Florida, coming back to their second, third homes for the holidays," says Elizabeth Potter, Managing Director at Baxter Miami. "Our showroom has had more visits and traffic than at any other point this year. While we are mindful of Covid and have and continue to strictly adhere to all health guidelines, we are happy to see some part of Miami come back to itself.We are accustomed to enjoying our peak season at this time of year, our December month starts the best cycle of Miami. It's not quite the same as years past, but it's definitely getting better. We've all adapted to the 'new normal' and it's wonderful to see life back in the showrooms and neighborhood, to find the faces of the customers we have missed during this epic year, and to renew the connections as we arrive at a brighter new year ahead."

Given that Salone Del Milano, the annual world-famous fair in the Italian city of Milan, did not happen this year, it is more special than ever for Baxter Gallery Miami to welcome the new arrivals, hand-crafted in the northern area of Italy. The detail dedicated to each piece of the Baxter collection is beyond anything the industry has seen, and as always, executed in the brand's signature premium leather.

"While this epic year had delayed some of our exciting new arrivals from Baxter, we are thrilled that new collection is now on display, just in time for Miami high season and new residents from up north relocating into our Magic City," says Elizabeth Potter, Director of the Miami showroom of the iconic brand.

Elizabeth Potter, Managing Director at Baxter Miami, Ramon Alonso, Principal at RADYCA Architecture Studio & SuperYacht Design, and Luciana Fragali, CEO of D/S Design Solutions Interior Design Studio, were hosted by Haute Living's Seth Semilof. The dialogue included talk of Baxter's magnificent designs and how the designers have implemented these use in their past and current projects. It also featured their insight on how they, the brand, and the design industry as a whole went through the quarantine months.

Highlight quotes from the webinar:

Elizabeth Potter: "On our side, we depend on our clients, and so much of our business does come from the trade community. So when I hear how focused they are, and I know how much they've been working, they make my life so much easier as well because that is my pipeline of projects and work... As a manufacturer, as well as a dealer, we are seeing quick movement from Italy. There's clearly a slowdown in different parts of the world, and yet the lead times on Baxter, the production of our product and our factory is moving flawlessly, so that's very encouraging and very interesting to see. I do believe that this particular part of the US market in South Florida and Florida (as a whole) is going to surpass all the other markets in the US right now."

Ramon Alonso: "I think that the reconfiguration of offices, and how they will be used, is going to be different. We have to understand all these new ways of working on new tendencies, and there will certainly be many opportunities for new creations... There is something about Baxter that makes it over the top. The scale of their designs, the textures, it's just very unique that you cannot find it anywhere... (Speaking about a Baxter sofa at a client's home) I understood the level of quality that we're talking about here, which is that it surpasses anything else that I have used. And we use very, very high end manufacturers."

Luciana Fragali: "During the quarantine, I started doing videos, something that I never did before. I'm not very good at showing off, but I realized that it's great to communicate with your public and tell them what you do know, and give them advice. Just to share your knowledge with people that are interested in getting to know you... My career is divided as before and after Baxter. Sitting on a Baxter sofa for the first time, for me, it wasn't just gorgeous, but it was the most comfortable piece of furniture I have ever experienced in my life. Not only use the sofa but the coffee tables, prints, and everything is so creative, so unique and sophisticated."

“Baxter Miami is operating and open for business remotely,” says Elizabeth Potter, Director of the flagship showroom in Miami. “We remain 100% dedicated to current projects and all our customers, with our design team supporting clients from their home offices. Engagement may have slightly changed but our creative output has not. Thankfully, the Baxter headquarters in Lombardy have also remained safe and well; we expect Italy and our factory to be operational in the not too distant future.”

Among the iconic collection pieces that Potter and her team at Baxter Gallery Miami are featuring in new projects today: the Chestermoon, the Budapest Soft, the Jupiter and Jorgen, and the always treasured signature statement, the Little Nepal Chair. Each express the Baxter tradition of handcrafted technique and quality, sophisticated and timeless beauty.

The northern area of Italy, where the furniture industry is heavily centered, was the first Italian zone heavily hit when the crisis began. Furniture factories have been forced to shut down since March, with administration teams working smart from home like their counterparts in the USA. The Italian government is looking at May 4th as a planned date to start up factory operations.

Salone del Mobile Milano, the world’s largest trade furniture fair that takes place in the Italian city every April, was unfortunately canceled this year. However, a ray of light may be at the end of the tunnel for those seeking to experience Baxter collection before 2021. “We can still dream and find a way to experience quintessential Baxter in both Miami and Milan,” says Potter with a hint of mystery.
