H AVA N A C R O S S I N G™ In Havana, the past, like no place on earth, lives side by side with contemporary life. Here, architecture, design, “society and geography create a unique inspirational style. In that context, Stanley Furniture’s Havana Crossing™ is authentic to Cuba and its culture. With careful attention to detail this furniture collection has been designed with forms and materials inspired by the outstanding universal value of Havana — one of the world’s most beautiful cities and one that is recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

ollowing the overwhelming success of our premier issue of the DESIGN [S]WATCH, Stanley Furniture chose International Design Source to be the first showroom outside of its High Point showroom to debut the Havana Crossing™ collection. In the spirit of that honor, we decided to print a special edition to bring this unique, must-be-seen collection to the attention of all Florida interior designers. As the culmination of 3 trips to Cuba and over 15 months of imaginative exploration, the Stanley creative team brought to life 102 original pieces, each with its own story. This collection embodies the architecture, cultural heritage, and spirit of this island nation’s vibrant people. With our mission to keep you informed, we hope you enjoy this collection (shipping in March) as much as we do. Sincerely, Linda & Emilio Sadez

ost people who grow up north of Miami-Dade County learn only the basics about Cuba and its tumultuous history. Yet, a mere 90 miles from Key West, across the Straits of Florida, lies an island nation, larger than all the other islands of the Caribbean combined, with a story that would seem inconceivable were it not true. Today, Cuba is at once frozen in time, while also, increasingly, crossing paths with the digital age of the Western world. Thanks to the expertise of our guides, over the course of 15 months and three trips, our team experienced Havana from the vantage point of local experts with an eye on how 500 years of history has shaped its culture, its aesthetic and its architecture. Glenn Prillaman, Rick Schroeder, Denis Kissane and I set out to distill that experience into an eclectic yet well-edited home furnishings collection that is both reflective of the Stanley Furniture design language and authentic to Cuba. Cuba is home to some of the best-preserved Colonial architecture in the Americas. From the 16th century Morro Castle to the 18th century Palacio del Segundo Cabo, we found examples of Spanish, Roman, Greek, Italian and Moorish influence. Throughout the 19th century, neoclassical style developed a strong following in Cuba, and we saw that on prominent display in Havana’s Vedado neighborhood, which was founded in 1859. Beyond its notoriety with other schools of design, the neighborhood of Vedado — particularly the seven-block stretch of 23rd Street known as La Rampa — holds many of the world’s finest examples of mid-century modern architecture. We spent considerable time there, and in the Nuevo Vedado neighborhood, as part of our exploration into the roots of what many refer to as Cuba’s “Tropical Modernism”. To that end, while Havana has long been known as one of the world’s few intact Spanish Colonial cities, what is less widely known is that it was primarily constructed in the first half of the 20th century. Largely through foreign investment — both traditional and not-so-traditional, via the likes of elite members of the Mafia such as Meyer Lansky, Santo Trafficante, Jr. and Lucky Luciano — Havana experienced rapid expansion and an incredible influx of wealth. Thanks to the timing of its growth and the influence of cities such as Miami and Las Vegas, with which it competed for tourists, Havana took a leadership position at the forefront of modern architecture in Latin America. The way that Havana’s architects, who were largely Cuban, so deftly reconciled the simplicity of mid-century modern design with the city’s prevailing European Colonial architecture created a beautiful style that fit perfectly in its Caribbean environment and influenced other architects and designers around the world. This creativity, the impact of foreign investment and the ensuing post-1959 isolation, has yielded a uniquely Cuban aesthetic that is unlike anything
you will see throughout the world. The very harmony with which all of these styles, colors and textures coexist, shoulder to shoulder, cuts right to the heart of our design thesis and mission: to experience the full spectrum of Havana’s architectural and cultural landscape and synthesize that into a beautiful collection of wood residential furnishings. Cuba is an extraordinary place. No book or photograph can prepare you for the enormity of what you see and feel upon arrival. The architecture, the landscape, the food, the music, the art and the people are all exceptional. To experience Havana and see remnants of what it was before the Cuban Revolution, what it is today, and to catch a glimpse of the gradual changes the country is undergoing is breathtaking, enchanting and, at the same time, haunting.

As relations between the United States and Cuba continue to thaw, Randy Wells one can only hope that the collective wisdom of six decades will prevail in protecting and preserving the country’s architectural treasures. If the same level of energy, effort and resources that were invested in Havana’s boom era are even fractionally invested in its restoration, the city will most assuredly reclaim its 20th century moniker — the Paris of the Caribbean.
— Randy Wells
Vice President of Creative, Stanley Furniture
As a result of our extraordinary access to the city of Havana, we saw first hand the resourcefulness and ingenuity of its people as they persevere through the political struggles between our two countries. Over the course of three trips to Cuba, we have gained a profound respect for the Cuban people and the pride they take in the unique character of their nation. As an expression of our sincere appreciation, Stanley Furniture will donate one percent of Havana Crossing™ profits to organizations committed to the preservation and restoration of the country’s architectural and cultural treasures.
