Retailers and Manufacturers Partner with Designers on Inspired Outdoor Collections

MICHAEL WOLK/ PAVILION FURNITURE Miami-based interior designer Michael Wolk enjoys an ongoing partnership with Pavilion Furniture. Wolk’s collection of streamlined contemporary seating and dining pieces reflect his refined sensibility and the high-end reputation of the manufacturer. “The reason I pursued working with Pavilion was, besides being great people personally, as a company they had the technical expertise to execute my designs as a quality product,” Wolk says. “The president of the company approached me and said, ‘We should do something together.’ I knew the company’s reputation, thought I could contribute, and agreed.” Wolk’s designs have found a home in several luxe Florida manses, as well as the St. Regis Bal Harbour Resort’s Atlantikos restaurant. “We’ve had the opportunity to work with Michael both for signature product design as well as large commercial projects,” says Perry Solomon, Pavilion’s marketing VP. “Michael is creative and dynamic, and we are delighted with the relationship.”
