AND THE WINNER FOR
BEST NEWCOMER IS...
The Blanca Coffee Table The competition was tight this year, but the Blanca coffee- and side tables win hands down. This homage to the classic mid-century design by Isamu Noguchi, about whose work one critic crowed "(it) blends into and complements its surroundings." Time will tell if the Blancas have legs to stand the test of time. Will the Blancas go the way of child-star-turned-adult-superstar, two-time Academy Award Winner, Jodie Foster? Or will they burn out young, turning into a Hollywood has-been by the ripe old age of 24, like that other Disney child star, Lindsey Lohan? You know what we think here at Nouveau-we think Starcky winner Blanca has Jodie written all over it. Plus, the best part of this years winner for best newcomer is the price! You won't have to steal jewelry to stay fashion forward with The Blanca. The coffee table is $215.00 and the coordinating side tables are $170.00 each! |
| BEST UPHOLSTERY 
THE BERKLEY SOFA The Berkley, with its classic lines and crisp tailoring can transform from traditional to transitional to a contemporary setting with the change of the fabric and toss pillows. Like multiple Academy Award winner Meryl Streep, she can transform herself with each film role with costumes, makeup and dialect. The Berkley fast became not only our best seller for the year, but the manufacturer's too and just as Streep is as of late the go-to actress to guarantee a film's blockbuster status even during the summer when mindless flicks vile for the top spot, this classic sofa whips blockbuster's butt.

BEST RUG 
THE CORAL SHAG
The Coral Shag rug combines the hip textured of the 70's with today's trendiest colors including apple green, pumpkin and teal. Maybe John Travolta, a two time Oscar award nominee should let his true colors show and go au naturel for his next film role. Instead of covering his mullet with bad rugs, Travolta might finally win the golden statue with this updated look. I guess "Grease" is no longer the word. Maybe, Rogaine should be the new slogan for this Hollywood favorite.
