Pasadena Museum of California Art honored Semigood Design. The Rian Cantilever bench, Rian barstool, and Rian stool were selected for inclusion for the California Design Biennial. The exhibition runs from July 18th to November 7, 2010.
Pieces of the Semigood Rian collection were selected to be included in the "Once Upon a Chair" book published by Gestalten. "Once Upon a Chair" is an international survey of contemporary furniture design.
In 2008, we were honored to have our white oak Rian stools in the dressing rooms of the new Elie Tahari boutique store in Bal Harbour, FL. Since then, Semigood has been asked to furnish the Elie Tahari stores in North Point (Dallas, TX), Tysons Corner (Virginia), Short Hills (New Jersey), Fashion Island (Newport Beach, CA), and internationally with Qatar and Istanbul.
Many thanks to Allison Arieff, editor-at-large at Sunset Magazine, for the wonderful write up. "One such company is Semigood whose gorgeous hardwood furniture pieces are destined to become instant heirlooms."
