Showroom will reflect a collaboration inspired by shared design philosophies

2011-06-04

WHEELING, IL, June 04, 2011 (Press-News.org) "This is a synergistic partnership that has grown not only because of our similar backgrounds as family-owned and operated, Midwestern-based companies that have been in the business for 20 years, but also because of our shared design philosophies. Leland is a company that shares Brentano's commitment to beauty + performance, and also one that understands how we can elevate each other in achieving that important balance," says Brentano Director of Design, Iris Wang.

We invite you to view Leland's two new collections, beautifully upholstered in Brentano textiles at the Leland showroom (3-337) during NeoCon. While there, ask a Leland or Brentano representative to snap your picture with the products while holding our partnership sign.

Upload the picture to both of our Facebook pages (Leland International and Brentano) for your chance to win a custom iPad cover designed by Brentano fabrics. Even better -- two of the ten iPad covers will have new iPads inside!
