Gil's Office
Hi All!
After giving you a glimpse of Karen's office space last month, I thought we’d use this month to highlight what is possibly the most unique “office” in our entire space. Gil Cayabyab is the Director of Marketing here at Smart Furniture, and the place couldn’t run without him. But aside from being one of our best employees, Gil is one of our best improvisers, as his office space will show:
That’s right, Gil set his office up on a mini catwalk extending out over the lobby of our space!
In terms of unique office space, Gil finds himself literally up in the air. Because it is such a nontraditional spot for an office, the improvisation doesn’t stop at choosing the location. Gil has to use a few tricks to make sure he can fit everything he needs into a tight space. One solution? You guessed it, Smart Cubes.
That’s not the only bit of Smart Furniture merch Gil’s got working for him. Check out that desk, put together with no tools. It’s big and wide enough for folks to work comfortably, and it’s adaptable enough to fit in nearly any space - even catwalks!
All in all, Gil’s space might be the coolest in the office. It’s unique, it’s well-adapted and improvisational, and it’s the best seat in the house when it comes to ping pong and creeping out Matt Wood.

The SAYL is here!
Finally, after we've waited for months and months, the SAYL Chair is officially in the house. Teal Thibaud, one of our awesome salespeople (recently featured in Chatter Magazine’s “Chattanooga’s 11 Hottest Catches” issue, natch) expresses our enthusiasm below:
It’s quite a thrill to have the chair we’ve been thinking and writing about so much actually in our store and available to customers. We know you’re going to love it!

Hi, guys!
From now on, we thought it’d be cool to give our readers a sneak peak behind the scenes of Smart Furniture itself. About once a month we’ll pull back the curtain on the office of one of our employees and let you see how they use Smart Furniture products to help organize and beautify their workspaces.
First up is me, Karen Culp. Check out how I use cubes to organize the stray objects, papers, books and work implements that tend to float around an office!
Of course, the most important part of any office set up is the desk area. The desk I use is a Smart Furniture original product, put together without using tools, and the chair I rock in is the inimitable Mirra Chair.
What’s that you say? You’re wondering if that’s the Leaf Lamp on my desk? Designed by Yves Behar? Released by Herman Miller? Why, yes, it is.
At the end of a long work day, or whenever you need to have a quick meeting, it’s good to have an area where you can sit down and relax. I recommend a good couch combined with a good coffee table (or low table). Check out what I’ve set up in the corner:
Here’s how the office looks when you see it all together:
Well, I hope you see some ideas you can use yourself; or at least some helpful Smart Furniture products you could use in your own office!

Smart Organization
Getting organized is a worthy goal, but sometimes it can be overwhelming. Where should you start? When setting up a smart organization system, it’s important to find what works best for you, your space, and your organizational style.
Modular storage and shelving units can serve as a great design solution for your organizational woes. What’s great about these products is that you can design them online just the way you want them, put them together quickly with no tools, and reconfigure them to fit your changing needs over time. This is smart organization at its best, and it’s a great place to start your quest for organizational bliss.
For example, check out our Smart Shelves. You can design your own setup by choosing the finish, the style, and the dimensions to fit you and your space.
By making a smart organization investment, you can configure a system that’s perfect for you. Plus, you can be confident that if your needs change over time, you can rework your modular shelving or storage system to fit your new space or serve its new purpose. We use smart organization techniques throughout our office and wouldn’t have it any other way. We’ve added plenty of home organization product lines and styles to SmartFurniture.com to ensure you find exactly what you need. And if you need help choosing a system that’s right for you, our team is always happy to help!

The SAYL Chair is Coming
Forgive the double exclamation point, but that’s just where we are right now. The long awaited, the long drooled-over, the long elusive SAYL Chair by Yves Behar and Herman Miller is finally coming to Smart Furniture in the first week of February!
At CES in Vegas this year, we actually ran into Yves and got to ask him some questions about the chair, and about design in general - look for that later in this space. Everything we talked about only whetted our appetite further for this gorgeous piece of furniture.
At only $399, this is impossible luxury and design at an equally impossible price. We’re so proud and so excited to share the SAYL Chair with our customers. Come back in the first week of February and claim your prize!

The LOFTwall
We have an exciting new product at Smart Furniture, one that has practical applications in nearly any room, office, or home. It’s called LOFTwall, and it’s an ingenious, creative way to divide room space. The LOFTwall is a freestanding “wall,” that can be used to divide desks, 
areas in a room, or merely to add color and aesthetic appeal to your space. The best part about it, for us Design on Demand disciples here at Smart Furniture, is that you can fully customize your own. You choose the pattern, you choose the colors, and you choose the materials for your very own LOFTwall. I myself went with a colorful tribute to the Eames Storage Unit, mixing wood, yellow, red, blue and white to make a retro (and effective) wall that looks great and keeps me organized. I highly recommend it. Check out some of the designs here.

Hohrizontal 51
The Hohrizontal 51 Docking Shelf and sound system is one of the coolest pieces of furniture and technology we’ve seen in a long time here at Smart Furniture. We liked it so much, and were so curious about how it would perform, that we got one installed in our own offices. After having used it for several weeks, I can personally attest that the sound quality is astounding for such an unassuming system. Just plug in your iPod, or your speakers or television, as we do, and sit back and enjoy.
Of course what makes this product super-cool, and not just super-good, is the look of it. If you didn’t know what it was, you’d just think the product was a modern shelf, floating on the wall and looking great. You could use it for almost anything; to keep books and DVDs organized, to display photographs or keepsakes. But then you hear it start playing, and you’re blown away.
This is one of the those products that we recommend with a whole heart; we love it, we use it, and it’s truly fantastic.
It’s made by Finite Elemente, and we see some big things in their future if they can keep making products like this.

Herman Miller SAYL Chair Buzz
The new SAYL Chair from designer Yves Behar is generating a lot of buzz in the furniture industry, and it has started to leak out into the mainstream as well. Here at our offices we get WIRED magazine, and one of the recent issues had their "Wish List 2010, 100 Best Gifts for Geeks." Naturally, we had to read through it.And what did we see on page 136, ranking number 65? You guessed it, the Herman Miller SAYL Chair. According to WIRED, this is a chair with the comfort of the Aeron for a fraction of the price, and as easy to make as it is to sit in: "Look for it in a cost-conscious startup near you."
We couldn't agree more, of course, and we're excited to sell this work of art and ergonomics to our customers!

The 2010 Warehouse Sale
Here’s something to be thankful for! On November 26th, Black Friday, we’re having a Smart Furniture Warehouse Sale! Believe us when we say you won’t want to miss this!
The Smart Furniture Studio will host the sale in Chattanooga, Tennessee. These are seriously some of the best deals of the year! How do we offer such great prices? We save up all of our returned items or boxes that have been opened throughout the year, and set up shop at our flagship store, the Studio. These sale items do not come with a warranty and all sales are final. Quantities may be limited, so get there early! (The sale starts at 8 a.m. Eastern Time.)
We know some of our loyal customers can’t make the drive to Chattanooga the day after Thanksgiving. So we thought we’d offer a little sneak peek! While you’ll have to be present at the Warehouse Sale to shop the majority of these discounted items, we wanted to reward our Facebook fans! Starting today, fans of the Smart Furniture Facebook page can shop a small selection of our Warehouse Sale items at discounted prices BEFORE the actual sale starts on Black Friday! Want access to these great deals now? Check out our Facebook store and "Like" us on Facebook to unlock these deals, because they only last through November 26th!

NEW Embody Chair Video Review
Check out the new Embody Chair Video Review on our website (and YouTube):
We asked the guys at delegator.com to give us a thorough and independent review of the Embody Chair, essentially video versions of the written reviews they've been doing for a while now. They really came through with this one - informative, and accurate. We’re going to start commissioning lots of these video reviews to help our customers choose the right chair for them, and separate the wheat from the chaff. Coming next: Aeron, Nelson Swag Leg, the LCW, the Eames Lounge Chair, Mirra, Setu, and many others.
Your comments are welcome on our youtube page.
