BeDesign’s Duenas and Saenz Host Dual Events to Open Showroom

BeDesign’s Duenas and Saenz Host Dual Events to Open Showroom

Adrian Duenas, Marcelo Saenz

DESIGN LOVERS TURNED up at BeDesign in the Upper Kirby/Montrose area to toast the ongoing expansion of the high-end showroom and, especially, the opening of the first Flexform flagship showroom in Texas, at two different events — a luncheon and a “high tea” later in the afternoon.

“Flexform is the pinnacle of luxury Italian design and always has a very personal touch. No huge parties are needed when you’ve got something so beautiful in front of you,” said Adrian Duenas, co-owner of BeDesign, along with partner Marcelo Saenz. “You’ve got to really experience Flexform to understand the gorgeous materials, the comfort and design, and that’s why BeDesign is creating three intimate events. Flexform is to be lived and enjoyed through all of the senses.”

The New Flexform flagship showroom encompasses 2,500 square feet on the first floor of BeDesign with display vignettes of indoor and outdoor furniture, the store said.

The beautiful shop has been in the process of an epic expansion for some time now. In the end, the expansive new BeDesign will encompass flagship stores for five different Euro furniture lines.

Spotted in the crowd at the various events were such luminaries as Beth Wolff, Carrie Brandsberg-Dahl, Camila Castaneda of Cosentino and Chris Evans of Rottet Studio.

WITH ITS INAUGURAL set of residents newly moved in, Pelican Builders’ mid-rise condominium Westmore at 2323 W Main Street in Upper Kirby is already seeing the blossoming of a tight-knit community.

And with remaining two-bedroom homes starting at $895,000, it’s a remarkable value for this increasingly pricey area, where condos can easily climb to several million dollars and more.

This Weekend: Axiom Quartet Plays Contemporary-Classical Concert in the Heights — and Doesn't Play It Safe

When it comes to exploring the outer limits of string quartet repertoire, engaging audiences who don’t normally attend classical music concerts, and putting in the collective time necessary to nail the gnarly idiosyncrasies of 20th- and 21st-century composers, Axiom continues to walk the walk as they talk the talk.
