With its ever creative designers and their unique perception of their environment, even a day's travel or just a pass-by on a residential area can turn a simple iron gate's metalwork into a stunning wraparound pattern in Tungsten metal of the stylish Quit Your Metal-ing chair and sofa, giving them their unique fingerprint yet an ensemble distinctly Caracole. A soothing menswear inspired palette with suiting colors in greys and neutrals and a sophisticated frame finished in Platinum lend this inspiring chair a fresh, current look.

\r\n
\r\nWhile it has been available in the Philippines through its exclusive partnership with Dexterton Corporation since 2010s, a special event entitled Caracole “Off The Wall” was held on the 10th of November 2016 at the newly opened Dexterton showroom located at Lot 2, Block 32, 38th Street, North Bonifacio, Bonifacio Global City.
\r\n
\r\nTo introduce its newest Caracole showroom, occupying the whole third floor of the building, the company invited guests who were mostly architects, interior designers and press, who had also responded with excitement on getting inspired by the brand’s exceptional style. The showroom tour was led by Luiza Fogaca, Caracole’s Regional Brand Manager, who presented the brand’s eclectic mix of materials and distinctive pieces. She also demonstrated some of the furniture’s multifunctional features that help define the brand’s notable style. Moreover, she shared some of Caracole’s signature pieces such as the In Your Dreams bed frame, in its classic look inspired with fresh and modern design elements, stately rendered in mahogany, with gold bullion accents and intricately hand applied bone inlay, giving the head board its sophisticated disposition; Ice Breaker accent chair with its distinctive custom engineered frame wrapped in gold bullion metal tone and a micro-herringbone pattern in off-white linen-blend fabric offering its simplistic beauty; and the remarkable Awesome Blossom dresser richly made in mahogany finish that boasts brilliantly gold leaf chinoiserie façade, hand painted cherry blossom branches and beautiful shades of Swarovski crystals that are strategically placed in the center of a few key blossoms so that the piece almost winks at you as you walk by.
\r\n
\r\nLuiza gave a short brand overview presentation and a look back on the brand’s history and success story, followed by an interview hosted by Ms. Audrey Liu, Dexterton’s Assistant Treasurer, where they also let the audience take a glimpse on Caracole’s upcoming 2017 collection.
\r\n
\r\nIt was an eventful day for everyone as after the program, the guests, together with Luiza and Dexterton management, were treated to an enjoyable cocktails and wine.
September 21, 2017 - Further expanding its retail presence, Dexterton will open its third Caracole location in The Philippines this month. Located in the Greenbelt 5 Mall in Makati, this location complements other Dexterton Caracole retail locations in Bonifacio Global City and Quezon City.
\r\n", "long_description": "Makati, Philippines, September 20 – Caracole’s first Philippine store at Greenbelt 5 Mall, Ayala Center
\r\ncelebrated its first anniversary last Thursday. This American brand creates high-style home furniture
\r\nthat are filled with personality and offered at exceptional values. As these pieces are ultimately
\r\nunique and infinitely adaptable to any room, it quickly became a favorite of interior
\r\ndesign experts and homeowners alike.
\r\nThis milestone was honored with a sophisticated intimate lunch with well-known interior designers
\r\nand architects. Also present in the event was Ms. Luiza Fogaça, Caracole USA’s brand
\r\nambassador, and Assel Tursynbekova of Caracole. Guests enjoyed a wonderful conversations
\r\nand a hearty buffet by Chef Happy Ongpauco-Tiu of Happy Concept Group.
\r\n“Caracole’s distinctive, fashion-forward aesthetic resonates with consumers around the world and
\r\nwe’re very happy that we’re very successful in expanding our presence in the country. Our store here
\r\nwhich brings our international retail presence to more than 70 locations in 40 countries helps us to
\r\nprove our commitment to bringing Caracole home furnishings to design-oriented consumers around the
\r\nworld.” says Luiza Fogaca. “We will continue to create lifestyle furniture that is considered durable for
\r\nhome” Luiza adds.
\r\nAside from the store, customers can also find Caracole’s stunningly distinctive pieces in Dexterton
\r\nshowrooms at 157 Sgt. E. Rivera Street, Quezon City and Lot 2 Block 32, 38th Street, North Bonifacio
\r\nGlobal City.
A new opportunity has come for home owners, interior designers, and design enthusiasts to experience Caracole's authentic designs and impeccable craftsmanship as Dexterton, the brand's exclusive distributor in the country, had launched the first Caracole flagship store in Greenbelt 5, Makati City, last September 21, 2017.

\r\n
\r\n“We’re very pleased to be partnering with Dexterton to add our third Caracole retail location in The Philippines,” says Scott Smith, Caracole’s president and CEO. “Caracole’s distinctive, fashion-forward aesthetic resonates with consumers around the world and we’re excited to be expanding our presence in the country. The addition of the new location in Makati brings our international retail presence to more than 70 locations in 40 countries, and illustrates our commitment to bringing Caracole home furnishing to design-oriented consumers around the world.”
\r\n
\r\nMarking its official opening, Dexter Go, Vice President of Dexterton Corporation, Audrey Go, Assistant Treasurer, and Linnea Backman of Projects Division, led the ribbon-cutting ceremony, along with Caracole’s Asian Brand Managers, Luiza Fogaca and Assel Tursynbekova, and special guests Doug and Cheska Kramer.
\r\n
\r\nCaracole has impeccable attention to the creation of unique silhouettes, fine craftsmanship, chic details and exclusive materials as Luiza implied during the press conference. “We create lifestyle furniture that is considered durable for home and we have been the fastest growing American brand since we were founded.”
\r\n\r\n
Assel adds, “It is hard to define one signature style for Caracole as our different portfolios such as Caracole Classic, Caracole Modern and Caracole Signature, allow us to talk to a different set of consumers from a broad range of age, income and geographic locations.”
\r\n
\r\nThe new showroom is set to feature from all three of Caracole’s product portfolios. Currently, it houses its main streamline Caracole Classic and Caracole Modern which guarantee a wide variety of items specifically designed to suit any home and lifestyle. The showroom will also soon be carrying the bespoke Caracole Signature collection with every piece boasting of regal style crafted from elegant materials and highly-polished finishes.
\r\n
\r\nBehind Caracole designs are outlines of different cultures, lifestyles and travel scenes around the world. Inspiration then turns into ideas, which are refined by Caracole designers and engineers and between inspirations to seeing a product on the retail locations worldwide, it may take up two years, according to Luiza.
\r\n
\r\nAs she and Assel introduced some of the brand’s classics and bestsellers, they also led the guests and clients into exploring the unique details and features of some of Caracole’s signature items.
\r\n
\r\n\r\n
“Our Sociable and Socialite cocktail tables have the Caracole DNA and have been in line since the beginning in 2009. The pattern has become so popular that we have turned it as our signature pattern,” says Assel.
\r\n\r\nThe gorgeous Turn A New Leaf buffet cabinet made of Koto wood is one of Luiza’s favorites, decorated with champagne colored leaves in front that was inspired by a Japanese wallpaper. The neutral color sparkles, thanks to the shimmer on the silk screen finish. Moreover, the beautiful custom hardware is all made of crystal.
\r\n
\r\nAs far as upholstery, the Ice Breaker lounge chair is one of Caracole’s bestsellers, and now available in dark grey fabric and 3-seater sofa shape. Stunning in every angle, Lattice Entertain You sofa set is also one of the most favored pieces around the world with its exposed wood frame and an open Morrocan-inspired fretwork design on each arm panel. Unlike other furniture brands in the market, Caracole offers a lifetime warranty for its upholstery frames.
\r\n
\r\nAt the end of the press conference, everyone was treated to a luscious collation while one lucky guest was called out for the raffle draw and won the classic Finesse accent chair.
