“Kenneth Cobonpue is at the cutting edge of Asia’s chic furniture design industry,” said Michael Bush, owner of Home Resource. “His unique and striking pieces are in keeping with our continuing search for furniture brands that prioritize quality and timeless design.” Home Resource will carry the new introductions of his 2012 line in addition to classics like the Yoda Easy Chair, Ying & Yang Easy Armchair and Wave Dining Table.

kenneth-cobonpueCobonpue studied Industrial Design at the Pratt Institute in New York and apprenticed at leather workshops in Italy and Germany. He attributes his natural talent to his mother, Betty, a famous local designer working with rattan, and expanded what he learned at his mother’s side to create his own unique, modern look – an alternative to the Western definition of modern design. 

Home Resource’s showroom is located at 741 Central Avenue in the Rosemary District in downtown Sarasota, Florida. For more information, please visit www.homeresource.com.
