The Alyssa Loveseat wears its mid-century modern lines proudly, though it also proclaims don’t typecast me into any particular style because I have a very wide range. The dramatically high tufted back of the Alyssa Loveseat makes it a stunning accent piece, particularly in spaces with high ceilings. We’ve paired it with our Blake Occasional Table to prove what a fabulous fit they are. Whether it’s a cup of coffee or a glass of wine, this flexible little drinks table steadies it in style.
Designed by Joni Vanderslice for EJ Victor, the Alyssa is included in the J. Banks Collection of furnishings for the North Carolina furniture manufacturer. The J. Banks Design Group partnered with EJ Victor to develop this line of furniture because our team of designers wanted to have access to elevated, luxurious designs for their residential and hospitality projects. Merging authentic craftsmanship and an attention to detail, the 30-piece collection embodies luxury and easy elegance. The designs soften the boundaries between home and resort, pairing an underlying functionality that does not disappoint in performance but also lives up to the level of style a luxury residential project demands.
“We know and understand hospitality but have seen the need to create designs that are at home in a residential setting as well as in a commercial space,” notes Vanderslice. “Our hospitality projects are known for blending the look of residential with the scale and functionality of hospitality.” Focusing on our own experience with what we could not find in the marketplace, we worked with product development at EJ Victor to achieve timeless upholstered pieces and case goods that will work in virtually any setting.
This collection has come together so well because we focused on scale, function and flexibility, which affords a number of options for each piece in it. We hope you enjoy the attention to detail we brought to each design. This compelling and stylish furniture series features pieces that have been difficult to source and we know designers who have been aiming to fill in the gaps for their residential and hospitality design projects will appreciate the pieces in the collection.
