Next week we're welcoming Winnie Wong to Unique. Winnie is Cetec's Managing Director who is here to meet our QLD, NSW and Auckland clients at a mixture of client visits and showroom presentations:

Brisbane: Monday 24 June, 4pm

Sydney: Tuesday 25 June, 12:30pm

Auckland: Thursday 27 June, 11am and 1pm

I'm looking forward to learning more about this luxury brand renown for its subtle take on glamour and distinctive oriental influence.

Please get your RSVP's in as soon as possible to Samantha in Brisbane, Jacinta in Sydney and Rachael in Auckland. They'd love to see you there.

Open Days are a great way to see all our new releases at a time that suits you. Later this week Steph and her team will be hosting two open days - Thursday and Friday (13 and 14 June). They'd love to see you there, call in for refreshments and check out the new Arte, Zimmer + Rohde, Etamine and our own new stock designs.

We love collections which work a theme and have a strong back story to them. Etamine are particularly good at recreating an atmosphere or a vibe of a period or location. Their two latest collections are no different.

Voyage à Tunis is inspired by the famous journey to Tunisia taken by the painters Paul Klee, August Macke and Louis Moilliet in 1914. The colour palette, patterns and stylisations of this collection replicate the light of North Africa and the unique atmosphere found there. The lead design Voyage à Tunis reinterprets Paul Klee motifs and his distinctive colour palette. There are also embroidered designs, heavily textured wide widths and painterly jacquard weaves. See the collection page HERE.

PROMENADE DES ANGLAIS

Etamine's second release is Promenade Des Anglais. This collection celebrates the legendary Promenade Des Anglais on the Côte d’Azur with colourful yarns and prints, sophisticated textures and weaves. Together they embody the bustling Mediterranean spirit and it's sun-bleached colours. The lead design is Ballade, a contemporary print with striding figures painted in watercolours. Like Voyage à Tunis there are a number of wide width drapery designs with beautiful woven textures. The design Petite Terrasse is also worth a special mention - it's a handwoven, large-scale houndstooth design with summery colours and plenty of texture. See the colleciton page HERE.

We'd love you to call in to a Unique Showroom and see these fabulous new releases.
