RH CEO Gary Friedman has introduced the latest chapter of RH Estates, a highly anticipated debut comprising 165 collections by renowned artisans and designers including Michael Taylor, Dennis & Leen, and Dmitriy & Co. Premiering at RH Design Galleries across North America and Europe, as well as standalone spaces in Greenwich, Connecticut, and West Hollywood, California, the venture spans every corner of the home with new lighting, furnishings, and décor.

In an accompanying 300-page sourcebook, Friedman outlined his vision for RH Estates, arguing that many of the design world’s leading talents have remained inaccessible to a broader audience. “With the launch of RH Estates, we are removing the barriers that have segregated taste from scale,” he wrote. “We are amplifying the work of the world’s most elite designers, artisans, and manufacturers on our global platform. This is not a compromise of quality; it is a liberation of mastery. By uniting these legendary ateliers and elevating their work in architecturally significant spaces, we are providing access to some of the most beautifully designed, highest quality classic, contemporary, and modern furniture in the world.”

Volume 1 begins with the introduction of Valencia by Formations, which includes a sideboard inspired by the Moorish motifs of 17th-century Spanish architecture and handcrafted so that no two pieces are exactly alike. Jennifer, by Michael Taylor, includes a sofa inspired by the original 1970s chair created for actress Jennifer Jones. Amelia reflects Italy’s glassmaking tradition, taking cues from 1960s Murano glass chandeliers, while Alexandria by The Van Thiels encompasses the symmetry and proportions of traditional European design in a serpentine-style headboard. Paloma by Formations is a console table that reimagines the architectural character of an 18th-century Portuguese antique. And those are just a few.

“Make no mistake—we are not mechanizing art,” Friedman wrote. “The intricate hand-carvings and finishes are still executed individually by the world’s finest artisans. Because of this human touch, every single piece remains a one-of-a-kind masterpiece in its own right. However, by integrating the fragmented supply chain and presenting these products on an equally unrivaled and inspiring architectural platform, consumers now have access to a level of design and quality previously only available to a select few.”
