Karl Lagerfeld‘s namesake brand has revealed that it will be expanding its reach to the luxury furniture and home goods category, building on the late designer's love for furniture and unique approach to interior design. The announcement of this new venture follows the auction of Karl Lagerfeld's estate which "revealed that the late designer had enough furniture to fill a museum." Of course, there were many recognizable furniture pieces by famous designers like Philipp Strack and Jean Prouvé.
The announced furniture and HomeGoods collection will draw inspiration from Lagerfeld‘s eye for interior design, contemporary trends in furniture design, and the designer's love for neighborhoods in Paris. In fact, the furniture and home goods capsule is divided into four collections, each named after a neighborhood.
