Rock n roll comes home. Are you ready to rock? Tomorrow is the day CB2 gives a sneak peek for 48 hours of the Kravitz Design collaboration. Are you familiar with CB2? Its Crate and Barrel’s younger, hipper, contemporary, more *affordable* sibling. They have a few stores in various metro cities and a very robust online presence.
CB2 is premiering a new collection by Kravitz Designs tomorrow. Those on the list get first dibs shopping September 15th-16th.
Who is Kravitz Designs? Kravitz Designs is a new furniture collection by none other than Lenny “His Royal Sexiness” Kravitz. The Grammy-award winning rockstar. Actor (hello Hunger Games). Walking sex appeal. Epitome of cool. Most recently in the news for a wee bit of a wardrobe malfunction on stage when he split his leather pants…while commando. #penisgate
I huuurrrrd there was nothing wee about it, ahem. ( No I did not search the inter webs high and low to get a peek.)
If you can’t tell I have a thang for Mr. Lenny Kravitz.

Laaaawd have mercy.
Let me splash my face with cold water. Okay, this is a design blog right? Back to work!
Yes, so tomorrow CB2 is revealing the Kravitz Design Collection to a select few on the mailing list before the general population has the opportunity to peruse and purchase October 1st. Hope you got on the list last week.
I have a feeling this is going to be the design version of the Lilly Pulitzer/Tar-jay collaboration Spring 2015…total chaos. Hang onto your panties-and wallets. Shop online.
You are probably thinking, why the heck is a rockstar designing furniture? Probably for the same reason a former supermodel and sexy Latina actress have furniture collections.
Sex sells.
But seriously, Mr. Kravitz has skillz beyond being a Grammy-winning musician, acclaimed actor and the ability to arouse woman to throw their panties on stage. In 2003 he opened his own design firm and in recent years he has designed furniture, chandeliers, and gorgeous public spaces. I don’t know where he finds the time.
He infuses his consummate cool, sultry vibe and signature rock ‘n roll glam into everything he does. Did you ever see his Miami pad ( and only cool sexy peeps have pads). His spaces are soulful, glamorous, highly textured and individual. You would expect nothing less from this child of the 70’s.

So wild, and fun. Good thing most of the house was white and black.
Here are a few of Lenny Kravitz’s design projects.

Digging the silhouette, and texture of the this brass lamp. Can’t wait for the full reveal in the next few days. I’m sure the Kravitz Collection won’t disappoint and is sure to have something rock n’ roll red and or high gloss black in the collection for good measure.
Let me know if you bring a little rock n roll home to own crib.
Peace.
