Decor Tips
VB Miami
Hello, Miami! We've opened a new store in the Design District, at 4048 NE 1st Avenue. Here's your first look at the outpost, which features a mix of coastal- and industrial-inspired interiors—think concrete floors with lush palms and vintage rattan furniture. Below, interior designer Carolina de Neufville takes us through the highlights.
Mix It Up
For balance and visual interest, we contrasted the building's streamlined industrial vibe—concrete floors; exposed duct work—with the tried-and-true VB materials (bamboo, glass and limestone), and paired a custom channeled sofa, upholstered in a vivid geometric print by Kelly Wearstler, with vintage rattan fan chairs found in Palm Beach. Wallpaper by Omexco, towards the back, plays up the natural South Florida vibe.

Leopard, Always
Leopard and Veronica Beard go hand in hand—we think of the bold print as a neutral. At our Design District store, we brought it in by way of Pierre Frey curtains.

Curate the Artwork
When designing any space, don't forget about the importance of artwork—and also how you combine various styles together. Here, you'll find abstract artwork by Laurie MacMillan set against images that nod to the local environs, including sun-kissed scenes of the city and an oversized painting by Lauren Jane, named Beach Babe.
