District Eight’s handcrafted furnishings combine cutting-edge analysis of manufacture with modern aesthetics. It has an approach that says, “we’ll take your design problem and solve it.”

Some of the collection’s most striking aspects are:

• Versatile and functional design
• Concrete, iron, and glass made into sculpted pieces with architectural interest
• Aesthetics influenced by its location in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, infused with the bold character of the surroundings

District Eight Design, distributed by Nuevo, provides a rich range of tables and desks, seating and cushions, bedroom and storage pieces, and even game tables and accessories. Everyday objects take on an extraordinary aura with items such as:

• The Exeter Side Table – This sleek, contemporary table with concrete base is stunning in its simplicity
• The Arkon Barstool – intrigues by combining a delicate form and hearty materials like cast iron and leather
• The original “Distrikt” platform bed – with incorporated side tables and a steel canopy detailed in brass. Solid oak construction steel legs and leveling brass glides
