Description: This is for one NEW Restoration Hardware Catalog - Modern Fall 2024 RH 600 Pages Shipping: Free and typically mailed out same dayThanks for looking. Message me with any questions! Inside the Cover: As financial markets bid up the values of OpenAl and Nvidia faster than the speed of their new chips, the stone markets in Italy, Turkey and Spain tend to move at the pace of their ancestors; The Etruscans 900 BC - 27 BC, The Romans 27 BC - 476 AD and The People of the Middle Ages 476 AD - 1400 AD.While we can argue which generation had the greatest impact, what we can't argue is which industry has survived every generation. That answer can be found in the quarries of the aforementioned countries, and in the minds of the philosophical and imaginative individuals whose legacies you can learn about in the pages of this new Modern Sourcebook. From the Etruscan Tombs to the Spanish Steps, from the Colosseum in Rome, to the Royal Palace of Madrid, from the Seagram Building in New York, to the sculptures of Henry Moore, Travertine has not only survived every generation, we can make an argument that it has helped define each generation.As the Giganti family of Tuscany's SantAndrea Quarry notes (see The Culture of Travertine, page 82), "Where there is Culture, There is Travertine." While Dos Equis has introduced us in past advertising to "The Most Interesting Man in the World," we are pretty sure we met the real Most Interesting Man in the World, at least when it comes to mining and magically turning blocks of Emperador Marble into functional works of art. Turn to page 26 and meet "The King of the Stone Age," Vivek Chaudhary who will tell you, "We don't have business cards, we don't have a website, no one really knows us, but they know our work," and now you will too. Peruse the pages of this Sourcebook and you will find evidence not only of man's lasting relationship with stone, but also the endless imagination of mankind. While Al will surely make important contributions to the evolution of our species as prior technologies have, we do not believe our future will be defined by making endless queries into our history. We believe it will continue to be imagined by individuals, like Enzo and Enrico Giganti, and Vivek Chaudhary, individuals who dig deeply into their minds and quarries to unearth answers yet to be indexed on the internet. They, like we too, believe that the ideas of the future don't exist in the past, but rather in the imagination of impassioned individuals who are willing to think until it hurts, until they can see what others can't see, so they can do what others can't do.The question being asked around the world whose answer you won't find using Al is...Will artificial intelligence surpass human intelligence? As Einstein believed, and we at RH concur, "Imagination is more powerful than knowledge."We might not, as Siri or ChatGPT do, know everything.We can, as our ancestors proved, imagine anythingCarpe Diem,GARY FRIEDMANCHAIRMAN & CEO THE RH BUSINESS VISION & ECOSYSTEMWe believe, “There are those with taste and no scale, and those with scale and no taste,” and the idea of scaling taste is large and far reaching.Our goal to position RH as the arbiter of taste for the home has proven to be both disruptive and lucrative, as we continue our quest to build the most admired brand in the world.Our brand attracts the leading designers, artisans and manufacturers, scaling and rendering their work more valuable across our integrated platform, enabling RH to curate the most compelling collection of luxury home products on the planet.Our efforts to elevate and expand our collection will continue with the introductions of RH Couture, RH Bespoke, RH Color, RH Antiques & Artifacts, RH Atelier and other new collections scheduled to launch over the next decade.Our plan to open immersive Design Galleries in every major market will unlock the value of our vast assortment, generating revenues of $5 to $6 billion in North America, and $20 to $25 billion globally.Our strategy is to move the brand beyond curating and selling product to conceptualizing and selling spaces, by building an ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces that establishes the RH brand as a global thought leader, taste and place maker.Our products are elevated and rendered more valuable by our architecturally inspiring Galleries, which are further elevated and rendered more valuable by our interior design services and seamlessly integrated hospitality experience.Our hospitality efforts will continue to elevate the RH brand as we extend beyond the four walls of our Galleries into RH Guesthouses where our goal is to create a new market for travelers seeking privacy and luxury in the $200 billion North American hotel industry. Additionally, we are creating bespoke experiences like RH Yountville, an integration of Food, Wine, Art & Design in the Napa Valley, RH1 and RH2, our private jets, and RH3, our luxury yacht that is available for charter in the Caribbean and Mediterranean where the wealthy and affluent visit and vacation. These immersive experiences expose new and existing customers to our evolving authority in architecture, interior design and landscape architecture.This leads to our long-term strategy of building the world’s first consumer-facing architecture, interior design and landscape architecture services platform inside our Galleries, elevating the RH brand and amplifying our core business by adding new revenue streams while disrupting and redefining multiple industries.Our strategy comes full circle as we begin to conceptualize and sell spaces, moving beyond the $170 billion home furnishings market into the $1.7 trillion North American housing market with the launch of RH Residences − fully furnished luxury homes, condominiums and apartments with integrated services that deliver taste and time value to discerning, time-starved consumers.The entirety of our strategy comes to life digitally with The World of RH, an online portal where customers can explore and be inspired by the depth and dimension of our brand.Our authority as an arbiter of taste will be further amplified when we introduce RH Media, a content platform that will celebrate the most innovative and influential leaders who are shaping the world of architecture and design.Our plan to expand the RH ecosystem globally multiplies the market opportunity to $7 to $10 trillion, one of the largest and most valuable addressed by any brand in the world today. A one percent share of the global market represents a $70 to $100 billion opportunity.Our ecosystem of Products, Places, Services and Spaces inspires customers to dream, design, dine, travel and live in a world thoughtfully curated by RH, creating an emotional connection unlike any other brand in the world.Taste can be elusive, and we believe no one is better positioned than RH to create an ecosystem that makes taste inclusive and, by doing so, elevating and rendering our way of life more valuable.DescriptionRestoration Hardware, now known as RH, is a luxury home furnishings company that has evolved significantly since its founding in 1979.
