Resource Furniture, the exclusive North American distributor of space-saving furniture by Italian designer Clei, opened their newest showroom in Georgetown earlier this month. Guests welcomed the store to DC on Thursday, May 12 with a celebratory launch party. The brand’s modern and customizable furniture includes more than 40 models of wall-beds, bunk beds, closet and storage systems, and work space solutions – perfect for transforming a home office into a part-time guest room or for maximizing space in a 400-square-foot studio. In addition to hideaway beds, Resource Furniture offers a full line of fine Italian sofas and sectionals, tables, seating, office furniture, and more. Guests enjoyed cocktails and hors d’oeuvres while experiencing the transformative furniture first-hand.
