Vivian Bencich has announced the launch of Vivian Bencich Interiors, a residential design practice based in Atlanta and serving local and regional clients.

It marks a new chapter for Bencich, who is stepping away from Square Feet Studio, the commercial design firm she co-founded with her husband, John, in 2001, to return to her first love of residential design. The studio will handle renovations, new builds and furnishing projects, and guide clients from early planning through installation. vivianbencich.com

Through interactive technology, customers can learn about products while experiencing beds firsthand. In addition to its signature, made to order mattresses, the store also displays an expanded nightstand collection, new Provence bed frames and other sleep accessories such as sleep masks and candles. saatva.com
Ainsworth-Noah introduced the Alfredo Paredes Collection to its ADAC showroom this summer, giving the design trade its first local access to the designer’s furniture line. The presentation brings together several signature pieces, including the Santana Sofa, San Miguel Woven Panel Club Chair, Isla Dining Chair, Savannah Coffee Table and Delfina Armchair, and allows designers to view and specify the collection in person rather than through a catalog. ainsworth-noah.com
