56 Experience the nature of pure, elegant outdoor living.

To fully appreciate Century’s Punta Cana collection, one must fi rst know a bit about the life of the man who inspired it.

Oscar de la Renta was born in the Dominican Republic. When he was 18 years old, de la Renta left his homeland for Spain to study art at the Academy of San Fernando in Madrid. He soon became interested in the world of design and found himself an apprenticeship with legendary couturier Christóbal Balenciaga.

Later, he moved to Paris, where he took a job with Antonio Castillo’s house of Lanvin. Then, in 1963, he arrived in New York and began designing for Elizabeth Arden. In 1965, de la Renta launched his own ready-to-wear label. Over the years he has dressed royalty, First Ladies, Hollywood celebrities and socialites.

De la Renta has not restricted himself to the fashion arena, which is proven through the design of Punta Cana, an outdoor collection produced exclusively by Century Furniture.

Inspired by his Dominican resort retreat, the Punta Cana collection features many natural elements that, when brought together, offer pure elegance and uncompromising luxury.

57 58 PUNTA CANA

Can you imagine a more idyllic setting than a coral stone home surrounded by exotic tropical gardens and the emerald green Caribbean as your backyard?

Punta Cana by Oscar de la Renta features a mélange of cast stone and faux rattan reflecting an attitude of relaxed island living.

This collection is remarkable for its scope and variety—from sophisticated 18th Century inspired teak pieces, to casually inviting upholstery, to Caribbean woven rattan designs. Each item incorporates individually hand-woven wickerwork, which is made of an innovative resin called Hularo®.

The Hularo® synthetic fibers are made from fully-dyed polyethylene materials, which are very strong, environmentally friendly, 100% toxic free, recyclable and maintenance free. The material contains UV inhibitors preventing the woven fibers from drying out in the sun or fading in color. The lightweight, powder-coated aluminum frame gives excellent stability. This durable combination of materials creates furniture that is weather-resistant, colorfast and rust resistant.
