A Growing Presence

Since establishing its presence in West Palm Beach, Ornare has begun building connections that extend well beyond the showroom. Through intimate industry gatherings and a new series bringing Miami designers north for a closer look at West Palm Beach’s evolving design landscape, the Brazilian interiors brand is creating a natural meeting point between designers, real estate professionals, and the clients they serve. 

Connecting with Palm Beach Real Estate 

On June 17, Ornare welcomed 22 members of the Palm Beach Board of Realtors to its showroom in the Flamingo Park Historic District for an exclusive happy hour and private tour. 

Hosted by Ornare Sales Manager Fernanda Landi, and Relationship Manager Adriana Amaral, the evening offered guests an opportunity to experience the brand’s custom interiors firsthand while exploring the natural connection between luxury real estate and thoughtful residential design. 

The gathering was organized in collaboration with Rachel Tessof, Victoria Brewer, and Tracy Malette and marked the first in what Ornare plans to be an ongoing relationship with the local real estate community. 

Bringing Miami’s Design Community North 

Ornare is also creating a bridge between two of South Florida’s most influential design markets. CEO Claudio Faria, Sales Manager Rebeca Daiz, and Relationship Manager Adriana Amaral have begun hosting select groups of Miami designers for curated day trips to West Palm Beach, traveling north for a day centered around design, development, and the city’s continued growth. 
 
The itinerary offers more than a visit to Ornare’s Palm Beach showroom. Guests are introduced to notable residential projects where the brand already has a presence, including the Related Ross Experience Center, where Ornare participates in the Artisan Home Program with a custom closet vignette, and the Olara Residences Sales Gallery, where Ornare closets are incorporated into the development. 

The most recent group, hosted on August 7, included Alessandra Lopes of Studio Tre Marie, Carol Villela of Carol Villela Interior Design, Eduardo Torres of Carolina Labinas Interior Design, Fabio Morozini of Studio Moz, Silvana Borges of Silvana Borges Design, and Antonio Torres, founder of Navicon USA. 

For Ornare, these gatherings reflect a larger approach to its newest South Florida home. The showroom is becoming not only a place to discover the brand’s collections, but also a setting for conversation and collaboration among the people shaping the region’s homes and developments. 

As West Palm Beach continues to attract new residents, projects, and creative talent, Ornare is positioning itself within that growth by connecting the design communities of Palm Beach and Miami, one relationship at a time.

CollectionSuites Palm Beach has officially surpassed 50% construction completion, marking a major milestone as the vision begins to take physical form ahead of anticipated delivery in early 2027.

Beyond Your Suite 

At the center of the concept are the private suites, each offering owners the opportunity to create an environment entirely their own. Exceptional automobiles and motorcycles may take center stage, but the possibilities extend far beyond the garage. 

Fine art, wine, jewelry, couture, memorabilia, and other collections can all find a home within the suites, reflecting the varied interests of their owners. Custom interiors can incorporate lounges, entertaining areas, and bespoke design elements. 

This is not storage. It is a private extension of the owner’s lifestyle—a space designed around what they collect, how they entertain, and how they choose to experience it.

Privacy by Design

For collections of this caliber, security is as important as presentation. CollectionSuites is being developed around controlled access, advanced surveillance, and a private environment designed to protect both owners and their possessions. 

The combination of deeded ownership, customization, privacy, and security distinguishes the project from conventional storage and garage concepts, giving collectors a dedicated destination with the permanence of a space that is truly their own. 

Beyond the Private Suite 

While each suite offers its own private world, the forthcoming CollectionSuites Clubhouse will bring owners together. 

Designed as the social heart of the property, the Clubhouse will offer an elevated setting for entertaining, connecting with fellow members, and participating in a curated calendar of private gatherings and experiences. 

It introduces a community element to what has traditionally been a solitary pursuit, bringing together automotive enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, art and wine collectors, and others through a shared appreciation for collecting, design, and craftsmanship. 

Watch The Vision Come into View 

With construction now more than halfway complete, CollectionSuites Palm Beach is moving from renderings and plans toward a tangible new addition to the Palm Beach lifestyle. The project remains on track for anticipated delivery in early 2027, when owners will begin making these highly personalized spaces their own. 

For those with an eye toward legacy, this is a rare opportunity to secure something truly personal within Palm Beach’s evolving story.

SCHEDULE A PRIVATE PRESENTATION

In a town defined by collecting, from art and automobiles to the objects that tell a life’s story, space is rarely just functional. It should be personal and intentional. CollectionSuites Palm Beach enters that conversation with a concept designed not simply for storage, but for ownership in its fullest sense. First introduced in Miami in 2018, CollectionSuites quickly found its audience. The original project sold out, signaling a demand that extended beyond practicality into something more nuanced, a desire for spaces that reflect the mindset of those who collect with purpose.

A Measured Arrival

Construction officially began in January 2026, marked by an intimate ribbon-cutting that introduced the project to Palm Beach. Now approximately 30 percent complete, the development is progressing steadily toward its anticipated completion in early 2027.

The scale remains intentionally limited. Just 20 private suites will be brought to market, each fully customizable, offering a rare level of control over both design and function.

Beyond Storage

Conceived by founder and CEO Juan Manuel Fayen, himself a collector, the project is rooted in a clear understanding of what it means to preserve something of value. Each suite is designed as an extension of its owner’s world, a private environment with clear intention.

CollectionSuites is not positioned as a traditional storage facility. Instead, it is being developed as a lifestyle destination, where collectors can not only protect their assets, but engage with them.

Each suite is designed with soaring ceilings, climate control, advanced ventilation, and hurricane-rated construction, paired with features that elevate the experience of ownership. Mezzanines ranging from 500 to 1,300 square feet, private kitchenettes, wine cellars, and integrated entertainment systems transform the space into something livable rather than utilitarian.

Technology plays a quiet but central role. A proprietary app allows owners to manage security, access, and suite operations seamlessly, while concierge services coordinate transport, maintenance, and curation as needed.

A Community of Like Minds

At the heart of the project will be a private clubhouse, designed as a gathering space where owners can host, connect, and share in a collective appreciation for what they preserve.

It is here that the project shifts from individual ownership to community, bringing together collectors who understand not just the value of objects, but the stories behind them.

In a market often defined by visibility, CollectionSuites offers something quieter. As construction continues, the project signals a broader shift in how luxury is perceived, not by display, but by intention.

Now Accepting Inquiries

A limited number of suites are available by private appointment. For those with an eye toward legacy, this is a rare opportunity to secure something truly personal within Palm Beach’s evolving story.

Palm Beach Design Days returns January 27–30, 2026, marking its third and most ambitious edition yet. What began as a boutique gathering has grown into one of the season’s most anticipated cultural moments, bringing together leaders in design, architecture, art, preservation, and craftsmanship for four days of conversation, inspiration, and community. With proceeds benefiting the Preservation-Foundation of Palm Beach, the event pairs creative excellence with a mission grounded in protecting the character and heritage of the island.

Conversations That Shape the Season

This year’s lineup includes Architectural Digest’s Amy Astley, Aerin Lauder, Victoria Hagan, Tom Scheerer, Jacqueline Terrebonne of Galerie, Alessandra Branca, Markham Roberts, Edo Mapelli Mozzi, Stephen Sills, and other taste makers.

Across the week, panels delve into a wide range of topics such as:

• The future of American interiors

• The relationship between art, collecting, and design

• The evolving definition of luxury

• Architectural legacy and preservation

• The craftsmanship shaping tomorrow’s heirlooms

• Coastal design and the aesthetics of modern living

A Design Week That Moves Across the Map

Part of the magic of Design Days is its movement across spaces. Events unfold everywhere from the Norton Museum of Art to Glazer Hall’s new cultural stage, from storied design ateliers like Casa Branca and Hive Home, Gift & Garden to newcomers and pop-ups that showcase emerging talent. Visitors wander through open houses, preview collections, meet designers, and experience the region’s showrooms in a moving way.

Culinary moments and daily breakfasts create a communal rhythm to the week, while hands-on workshops—such as decoupage with Sister Parish—offer tactile craft engagement. Evening cocktail parties will be hosted by Perigold, Storia Flooring, The Colony Hotel, and Mabley Handler, giving guests a chance to connect across disciplines in classic Palm Beach style.

Rooted in Preservation and Progress

At its core, Palm Beach Design Days is a celebration of the individuals and institutions who shape the island. It honors the craftsmanship and stewardship that have always defined design, while supporting the Preservation Foundation of Palm Beach.

This year’s program, presented with support from Benjamin Moore, The Colony Hotel, Glazer Hall, The Norton Museum of Art, and notable partners across the industry, reflects a dynamic cross-section of ideas shaping the design world today. Click here for the full schedule.

Founded in 1986 by engineers Murillo and Esther Schattan in São Paulo, Ornare has spent nearly four decades redefining luxury interiors through precision, innovation, and timeless design. Known for its custom-crafted kitchens, walk-in closets, home offices, and bathrooms, the brand has built a global reputation for creating spaces that merge functionality with beauty. Every collection is thoughtfully designed to enhance the way people live, reflecting Ornare’s guiding philosophy of elevating everyday life through artistry and detail.

Still led by the Schattan family, including the founders’ sons Pitter and Stefan, Ornare has grown from a single workshop in Brazil to an international name in high-end interior design. With showrooms across the United States, the Middle East, and Europe, the brand continues to expand its influence within the world of modern luxury.

An Enduring Presence in Palm Beach

In spring 2025, Ornare brought its signature craftsmanship to Palm Beach County, opening its second Florida location at the Flamingo Park Market & Design Center. Under the direction of Claudio Faria, the West Palm Beach showroom offers a full sensory immersion into the Ornare universe, where natural woods, fine leathers, and marble finishes meet contemporary design. The space features the brand’s celebrated Timeless Collection, along with signature lines such as Wall System, Ikigai, Little Luxury, Stilo, and Wave, each designed to harmonize aesthetics with lifestyle.

The Future of Coastal Elegance

Beloved media personality and local tastemaker, Jayne Chase, is keeping Palm Beachers glowing. As the first editor-in-chief for Modern Luxury Palm Beach and the current design editor for Quest Magazine, Chase has always had a sixth sense for what consumers want. And the moment calls for an olfactory experience.

Since 2024, Chase has been manufacturing and selling her line of scented candles and diffusers, called Perfectly Palm Beach, which is evocative of the town she holds dear. “I wanted to capture what makes Palm Beach feel timeless,” says Chase. “It’s more than just a place, it’s a way of life.” 

Perfectly Palm Beach’s signature 7.7 oz, non-toxic candles are a mix of soy and high-grade wax. They are scented with a mix of orange, lemon, and briny sea-air, recreating dreamy, Palm Beach dusks. What’s more, they come in the cutest packaging, all tied-up with a grosgrain ribbon. 

“The scent of salt air and citrus has been a constant since my childhood—whether I was walking to the beach with my mother, wandering Worth Avenue, or lingering on a terrace at sunset” adds Chase. “I wanted to bottle that feeling so no matter where you are, you can take a piece of Palm Beach home with you.”

The county— and country— have quickly embraced Chase’s fire. Currently sold at Hive, The Breakers, Amrit Wellness & Spa, Lori Jayne, Pioneer Linens, and many other beloved boutiques, Perfectly Palm Beach is becoming an iconic hostess and traveler’s gifts. 

Perfectly Palm Beach is even collaborating with select J McLaughlin stores and with another well-known, Palm Beach brand, Lilly Pulitzer.  To date, Chase’s candles and diffusers are sold in over 65 Lilly stores. Because after all, one successful Palm Beach girl always takes care of another.

CollectionSuites Palm Beach introduces a new chapter for those who understand the quiet power of space, privacy, and legacy. Conceived for collectors and connoisseurs, each suite is more than a structure; it is an extension of its owner’s world, shaped with intention and built to endure.

Each is fully customizable, offering a rare opportunity to preserve what matters most in a space that reflects your own sense of permanence.

Designed by a Collector, for Collectors

At the heart of CollectionSuites is founder and CEO Juan Manuel Fayen, a collector himself. His deep appreciation for the rare and meaningful inspired the creation of something that didn’t yet exist: a private, secure, and thoughtfully designed place to house collections of every kind. Together with his team at JMF Consulting USA, Mr. Fayen has shaped more than a physical space. He has created an experience defined by intention, restraint, and excellence. Like the collector who gathers and protects with care, this project reflects the mindset of those who understand the emotional value of what they hold.

Every space boasts a mezzanine from 500 sq. ft. to 1,300 sq. ft., a kitchenette, a wine cellar, state-of-the-art entertainment and technology features, VIP concierge services and much more.

An Unprecedented Offering in Palm Beach

Located just outside high-risk flood zones, CollectionSuites Palm Beach offers more than privacy; it delivers peace of mind.

With hurricane-grade construction and resilient design, every suite is prepared to weather both time and the elements.

Suite sizes range from approximately 3,000 to over 4,400 square feet, each with the capacity to evolve with your collection. Following the success of its flagship location in Miami, this Palm Beach edition is purpose-built for those who seek not publicity, but permanence.

In a town where craftsmanship meets curation, McMow Art Glass has quietly become one of Palm Beach’s best-kept design secrets. Based in Lake Worth Beach, this family-run studio has been shaping the island’s visual language for decades, one pane, panel, and installation at a time.

Palm Beach Presence

Their work is woven into some of the town’s most recognizable spaces. Step inside La Goulue, the island’s beloved French brasserie, and you’ll find McMow’s artistry anchoring the room. Elegant and entirely custom. Wander through a private residence off El Bravo or an intimate gallery near Royal Poinciana, and their presence is just as unmistakable. McMow is not just a vendor. They are collaborators and artists with a refined sense of proportion, light, and permanence.

Craftsmanship with Reach

What began nearly 50 years ago as a stained glass workshop has grown into one of Florida’s leading architectural glass studios. McMow works across eras, styles, and spaces—from historic Mediterranean estates to sleek, contemporary builds, and from private residences to public-facing landmarks. Their materials shift to meet each project, whether fused, etched, leaded, or beveled, but the craftsmanship remains exact.

Their work appears throughout South Florida’s built environment, in chapels, galleries, boutique storefronts, and other spaces where design is part of the experience. Each installation is composed with care, balancing material and light in ways that feel both structural and expressive. McMow’s glass does not just complement a space. It defines it.

Studio, Legacy, and Recognition

Now under the direction of Shanon and Phil Materio, the studio continues to evolve while remaining grounded in its original ethos. Their Lake Worth Beach location serves as both a working studio and a creative hub.

Whether it is a grand entryway or a quiet decorative moment, McMow’s glass reflects the tone of Palm Beach. Intentional. Elevated. Built to last. In a well-earned moment of recognition, McMow was recently featured in Florida Weekly for their lasting impact on Palm Beach’s design and cultural landscape—a fitting spotlight for a studio that continues to shape the view, one composition at a time.

This is the glass that holds the light of Palm Beach.

Inside the Search for Purity, Precision, and Producers Who Do Things Differently

Every tin tells a story. At Altima Caviar, that story begins long before it reaches your table.

This spring, our team traveled to the Barcelona Seafood Expo to continue a search that never really ends. We met with producers from across Europe, tasted dozens of harvests, and asked the kinds of questions that most don’t. Where is the water sourced? How long is the maturation? Is the salt recipe adjusted for palate or convenience?

We’re proud to share that Altima Caviar is now partnering with four remarkable producers: La Perlita, Adamas, Esturión de Sarrión, Panchenko, and UGA. Each one brings something rare to the table, purity, precision, and an understanding that true luxury comes from how something is made, not just how it’s served.

A Taste for the Details

Every tin in the Altima collection is selected not for trend or label, but for the nuance behind it. At the Expo, we tasted caviar from Greece, France, Georgia, Moldova, Spain, and the Netherlands. We passed on many, but what always stood out were producers with small teams, clean water systems, and salt levels that preserve flavor instead of masking it.

Adamas, based in Pandino, Italy, is one of the few caviar houses still fully family-owned and vertically integrated. They use the traditional malossol method, light salt, cold pack, minimal interference, and can adjust the cure depending on the experience we want to create.

La Perlita, from the Aquitaine region of France, produces a rare, large-grain caviar known for its elegant texture and fresh hazelnut finish. Their team welcomes clients to visit their farm, walk the process, and taste caviar as it’s meant to be shared.

Esturión de Sarrión, a boutique Spanish farm near Valencia, offers one of the creamiest Baerri varieties we’ve come across. Their roe is delicate, pure, and consistently refined.

UGA, with farms in Iran and Spain, blends generational knowledge with pristine sourcing. Their Beluga, matured for over a decade in Caspian-fed water systems, carries a natural richness that feels timeless.

Panchenko Caviar House, based in the mountain regions of Georgia, produces a superior Siberian roe that’s light, elegant, and reminiscent of Oscietra. Their commitment to sustainability, purity, and partnership stood out immediately, and their team has welcomed us to visit the farm and collaborate on future tastings and sourcing.

Each producer was chosen not for scale, but for soul. Their practices are traditional, their product is pristine, and their vision aligns with ours.

More Than a Product

This is not about quantity or convenience. It’s about building a caviar program that reflects a way of living, seasonal, selective, and rooted in a sense of place.

Whether it’s enjoyed on a terrace in Menorca, paired with champagne in Palm Beach, or shared at one of our private tastings abroad, Altima Caviar is meant to feel personal. These are harvests you can trace back to the farm. Some of our partners even invite clients to visit, walk the land, and see the process firsthand.

That’s the difference. Not just how it tastes, but how it was chosen. This is how Altima selects caviar. Thoughtfully. Globally. Without compromise. Stay tuned as we bring you closer to the farms, the people, and the experiences that shape each tin.

A Study in Seamless Celebration.

In South Florida’s world of luxury entertaining, few names carry the weight and reputation of Le Basque. Known not only for elevated cuisine, Le Basque has quietly become one of the most trusted producers of high-profile events, those that feel effortless in execution but are layered with complexity, nuance, and intentionality.

At Le Basque, an event is never simply an occasion. It is a fully designed environment, tailored to its setting and built around a clear philosophy: the most memorable experiences are those where production disappears and atmosphere takes over.

Every detail is approached with the same guiding principle: refined but never ornamental, polished but never forced. From the architecture of a seated dinner to the choreography of staff movements, Le Basque creates moments that feel cohesive and complete.

A Production Philosophy Rooted in Restraint

While the word “production” often suggests spectacle, Le Basque’s approach is rooted in subtlety. Their events don’t rely on trends or gimmicks. Instead, the focus is on pace, proportion, energy, and atmosphere. The location becomes the compass, whether a historic garden, a private estate, or a waterfront lawn, and each element is built in dialogue with that space.

Le Basque’s signature lies in creating experiences that feel both cinematic and natural. Guests move fluidly from one chapter to the next. Lighting shifts with the hour. Music, scent, service — all work in harmony to heighten the moment without ever overpowering it.

End-to-End Precision Without the Hand-Offs

What sets Le Basque apart is its full-circle involvement. From the initial walk-through to the final sweep after the last guest has gone, their team remains at the helm. There are no hand-offs. The people who design the experience are the same ones on-site, ensuring it runs exactly as intended.

This continuity allows for a level of control that is rare in today’s event landscape, and it’s why institutions, fashion houses, and private hosts return to Le Basque year after year. Their planners anticipate friction points before they arise. Their staff are trained not only in service, but in poise. Their logistical execution is nearly invisible, but entirely felt.

More Than an Event. A Point of View.

Le Basque doesn’t offer packages or templates. Each event is built from the ground up with one client in mind. From concept development to vendor collaboration, they operate like a creative studio, curating every decision through the lens of experience design.

Their work has shaped some of the most elegant evenings in Palm Beach and Miami, always with the same intention: to create events that are remembered not for any single element, but for how everything came together in harmony.

For those planning an event where refinement, control, and atmosphere matter, Le Basque is not just a partner, but a producer of the unforgettable.
