BR-111 Flooring Featured at Designer Showcase

Miami, Florida, August 30, 2006--BR-111 Exotic Hardwood Flooring reported that its Triângulo Engineered hardwood flooring is featured in the new Hampton Designer Showhouse. The sprawling estate was recently unveiled to the delight of 1,000 guests at an exclusive, invitation-only gala hosted by House & Garden. With more than 18,000 square feet of living space, the Hampton Designer Showhouse is situated on four acres near Sag Pond and combines old world charm, upscale 21st century amenities and elaborate attention to detail. A masterwork of architectural and interior design elements, the showhouse carries an estimated value in excess of $25 million. Maduro Chestnut, from the BR-111 Triângulo Engineered collection, was chosen by designers Priscilla Ulmann and Jennifer Powers for the home’s exquisite 750 square foot living room. Featuring a rich espresso color, accented with unique graining and random black striping, the exotic hardwood flooring brings a dramatic contrast to the cool pastel colors that are present throughout the room’s décor. Some celebrities toured the Hampton Designer Showhouse over the weekend, including Kelly Ripa, escorted by husband Mark Consuelos, Issac Mizarahi, as well as former Mayor, Rudy Juliani and his wife, Judy. Triângulo Engineered features a thick sawn wear layer that provides the durability of solid hardwood flooring. Finished with a clear aluminum oxide wear layer, Triângulo Engineered is available in seven exotic hardwood products. Celebrating its 15th anniversary, BR-111 is a leader in the exotic hardwood flooring arena, providing a wide variety of species available in solid and engineered products.
