[Designer Rafael de Cárdenas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nate-berkus) was tapped by American home retail imprint MG_BW Home on a new collection together. The two launch a [capsule made up of 19 pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/symbol-home) -- all of which are carefully designed home furniture that is full of color and structure. It invites an artful look to design and embodies a sense of self-expression through [high-quality craftsmanship](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pierre-renart). The capsule is made up of timeless looks and is crafted from natural materials.

Jenn Gibbs, the SVP of design at MG+BW Home speaks about the designs and how versatile they are, stating “I love that Rafael created three different environments – living, dining, and bedroom – where the language of the upholstery pieces and the tables and storage really speak to each other. They have a lot of curves and soft corners, all very modern but in a very comfortable way, which exemplifies the look and feel MG+BW Home is known for.”
