uk furniture retailer dwell goes into administration

One of the biggest British furniture retailer, Dwell (http://www.dwell.co.uk), has gone into administration in 20 June, 2013. Dwell had tried to sell itself several month ago, but it failed. Now around 300 staff have been told to stay at home, while customers with orders have been informed to contact their bank if they paid by card.



Dwell has 23 stores all over UK: Lakeside Retail Park in Essex, Tottenham Court Road in London, Manchester’s Trafford Centre, Glasgow, Balham, Bimingham’s Fort Dunlop and Bullring shopping centres, Bluewater in Kent, Bristol, Cardiff, Cheltenham, Guildford, Kingston, Leeds, Manchester, Milton Keynes town center and Retail Park, Nottingham, Reading, Richmond, Solihull and Westfield shopping centers in west and east London. It also has a warehouse and distribution center in Milton Keneys. Most of Dwell products is contemporary furniture and hotel furniture, they are really popular in UK, so it is a big chance that some groups may be interested in Dwell’s business.
All trades has been ceased immediately ahead of administrators being appointed. If you used a credit card buying furniture from Dwell, you should get your money back thanks to Section 75 of the Consumer Credit Act. But those who paid by debit card do not have the same protection. You can use the chargeback scheme to reclaim money. Chargeback is not enshrined in law but instead is part of what’s known as Scheme Rules. This means you can ask your bank to try and claw back the money you paid on debit card if you haven’t received your goods.
Now the website of Dwell has taken down too, which is started from 28 September, 1999. Hope to see this beautiful furniture sites with fantastic modern home furniture images again. Maybe Senyi furniture will have business again with Dwell in a short time. Let us waiting for good news from Dwell furniture online store.

14th international furniture fair chengdu opens


The 14th International Furniture Fair Chengdu opened at Chengdu Century City New International Exhibition & Convention Center on July 3 (End date is July 6). Most of Sichuan Province (Chengdu City is the provincial capital of Sichuan) local famous furniture brand companies, such as Qaunyou,  Langdu, Nanfang, Dibiao, Haofengjing, Xianqu, Xiyangyang, are all taking part in this fair. There are also other famous domestic brand China furniture manufacturers here, mainly coming from Guangdong, Fujian and Zhejiang Province. International Furniture Fair Chengdu are well known by many China domestic furniture wholesalers and retailers after 14 years development, it is a really great platform to increase furniture business in China, so you can find more and more international furniture companies in Chengdu Furniture Fair now. Homag from Germany, some wood suppliers from North America and French are showing their booth in Chengdu this days.
Furniture industrial has developed very fast in this years, Mu Tao, the president of China council for the promotion of international trade Chengdu council, and chief of Chengdu bureau of exposition, pointed out that, there are more than 5,000 furniture manufacturers in Chengdu with more than $10 billion annual output value, nearly 0.6 million employees.  Mr. Mu thinks that Chengdu Furniture Fair has played an important role in the development of Chengdu furniture industrial, now it has been one of the TOP 3 China furniture (Another two is Guangzhou Furniture Fair and Shanghai Furniture Fair) shows after 13 years development, the best domestic furniture marketing platform in China, it brings Chengdu furniture to all the other states in China and all over the world.
According to the sponsor of 14th International Furniture Fair Chengdu, Chengdu Municipal People’s Government and Sichuan Provincial Department of Commerce, the exhibition area is more than 120,000 square meters, nearly 900 furniture companies are showing in this fair, there are 9 indoor exhibition halls in New International Exhibition & Convention Center, but the space is still not enough, so the sponsor set 4 outdoor exhibition areas to meet demand.
July 3 and 4 will be the Professional Audience Day, only professional buyers with certificate can enter the exhibition hall; This fair will be opened to public in July 5 and 6, anyone who are interested in furniture can enter it free, and most of the furniture exhibitors will show their special offer with incredible discount, much cheaper than the price in traditional furniture stores. Many furniture companies try their best to attract more traffic to their booths in this fair, beauties, hot performance, gifts is common, some even has their team with brand on the hands go around in the exhibition hall! Unlike Guangdong and Shanghai Furniture Fair, there are many famous China super stars in Chengdu Furniture Fair every year, guess who present in this show? Zhang Guoli, Fan Bingbing, Huang Xiaoming, Li Jiaxin, Shi Xiaolong, Zhu Dan are all on behalf of some famous furniture brand here.
Another bright spot is “Green” and “Original Design”. Quanyou furniture make a totally green booth in No.7 exhibition hall, they use real grass, and there are lots of green plant around their booth, Quanyou do not sell their furniture products this time, just to pass the furniture idea of “Green, Enviromental, Low-carbon”.  More and more Sichuan furniture manufacturers attach importance to “Original Design Furniture” in 14th International Furniture Fair Chengdu, There is a big slogan in the booth of Haobang Sofa, says that “100% original design, welcome photograph”.
The Chengdu Furniture Fair is mainly set up for China mainland furniture market, aiming at home furnitre, so the number of foreign visitors is much smaller than furniture fairs in Guangzhou  and Shanghai(also it is increasing), and most hotel furniture suppliers usually do not take part in this fair.

uk furniture retailer dwell is back in business with 50 discount clearance


On June 20, UK furniture retailor Dwell went into administration, it happened suddenly, many customers and suppliers of Dwell didn’t know how to get their money back, more than 300 employees are waiting for the update. Now the joint administrators of the home ware and furniture retailer Dwell have announced the successful sale of the business and assets of the company.
The co-founder of furniture retailer Dwell has agreed a deal to rescue some of its stores and save 150 jobs. Aamir Ahmad founded Dwell with family and friends ten years ago but left the business last Nov. He has promised to try to help customers who have outstanding orders. Five stores will reopen on Thursday and the online store will also open for business again. Mr.Ahmad has struck a deal to buy a collection of Dwell stores, which will save around 150 jobs. Now the online store are also opening for business again, you can see a striking “50% off clearance furniture” on the home page of http://www.dwell.co.uk.
Talks with landlords are continuing in the hope that more stores can be saved.
“Our priority lies with the customers and suppliers who have been let down by the former management,” said Mr Ahmad.
“We are working hard to try and resolve the issues, in particular outstanding customer orders.”
“Although we are not legally obliged to, we are doing everything we can to find a solution for customers who have lost out. Our primary goal is to help customers and suppliers regain their trust in the Dwell brand.”
This is really good news for both customers and employees of Dwell, but Mr.Ahmad did not mention suppliers, some suppliers did not know the big furniture company were in great trouble when the Dwell administrator were looking for buyers in this months. Small furniture suppliers may lose out. Obviously Dwell had been importing furniture from China for many years, because the price of Dwell furniture online store is really competitive, we do not know any other furniture suppliers of Dwell in China, but it is not hard to conclude that some  furniture manufacturers are in trouble, they are waiting for the balance from Dwell, or they are waiting for shipping & loading instructions from Dwell, all the goods has been in warehouse for months, this furniture factories need money to pay their suppliers and workers too.
There are always risks in international business, but furniture exporting companies can do something to reduce the risks. Actually, there were some customers left complains on Facebook of Dwell several months ago. The furniture suppliers should consider it as a sign of trouble if their sales find it on Facebook, a big furniture retailor should not have serious problems in delivery like this. So, furniture manufacturers pay close attention to the update of big customers sometimes can save your business.
We do not know what will happen tomorrow, but we hope everything goes well in Dwell.

A hotel is a building for passengers to rest . With the continuous development of tourism industry, more and more different types of hotels have appeared. More different requirements for interior design have been  put forward. In addition to common hotel, there are youth hotels, automobile hotels, villa hotels etc.
A. The parts of a hotel
1. The public part
The hall, conference room, multi-function hall, restaurant, shopping mall, ballroom, beauty shop, gym, and entertainment room are public places for
  passengers of the whole hotel.
2. The guest rooms part
All the guest rooms are private spaces for passengers in the hotel.
3. The management part
Including manager office, financial office, personnel office, office for        logistic managerial personnel and other office  related .
4. Accessory part
Provide logistic support, including all kinds of occupancy and facilities,    such as the garage, laundry room, power distribution room, staff dormitory and the dining room.
B. The development trend of modern hotels
1. Function increasingly integrated
A hotel is not only a place for passengers to live, but also a place for them to have dinner, to go shopping, to spend their leisure time, to have recreation and social contact. It is comprehensive. There are meeting rooms, exhibition  rooms for the passengers to have their business activities in many hotels. Some hotels can provide a variety of services for the consumers to have their recreational activities, sports, to keep fit, to go sightseeing and etc. .
2. Division of labor increasingly refined
On the one hand the function of hotels is comprehensive, on the other hand  their division of labor is refined. At first glance, it is contradictory, but in essence, it meets the demand of customers.
The so-called refined division of labor means that different hotels work for different customer groups. For example, youth hotels are intended for young students. In a youth hotel, people may share rooms. The beds are double-storeyed beds. laundry and ironing are self-service. All of these are for the purpose to reduce consumption standards in order to adapt the service to the economic level of young students to cultivate their collective consciousness and the spirit of independence. For another example, the automobile hotels are designed for drivers and those tourists who drive their own cars. In the automobile hotels, in addition to general basic facilities, there is a large parking lot and a gas stations, even a car cinema. They   provide service for car washing and repairing etc.
3. characteristics more prominent

(2) local
Different regions and different cities have different geographical climate conditions, different scenery and historical sites, want to in a small hotel in the fully embody these characteristics, it is very difficult. But, from the designer's perspective, and must as far as possible to reflect these characteristics, different regions and different city hotel each are not identical, each have each regional characteristics, in order to avoid "deja vu" awkward. For example, Lhasa hotel, dunhuang hotel and turpan hotel, should respectively reflect snow area plateau, hexi corridor and the grape valley in geography, climate, and the characteristics of the regional culture and the local conditions and customs of special associated.
(3) historic
Different countries, regions and cities, there are different history and cultural background, the hotel design should be in a certain extent reaction this reality, let passengers get information, knowledge and enlightenment.

Available partition, rail, greening and the ministry of communications of the hall on the component, but also can raise or lower floor level, make its have greater independence. The rest of the main furniture is sofa group, how many quantity in accordance with the size of the hotel and decide. Most of the rest is located in a corner of the hall or rely on a wall, there are also some rest is located in the middle of the hall, the sofa, tea table, flowers trough, etc. To form a relatively independent area, the rest is applicable to the lobby of the larger area, otherwise, it is possible to shadow phase, material distribution. Some lobby to post or flower-stand as the center set seat, because users are facing outside, difficult to communicate, so only as a centralized resting place a supplement. The rest should be set up around BaoKanJia, publicity, ratten ware and umbrella rack, resting place - the general service counter - floor between the elevator, want to have simple flow line, avoid too long, but also to avoid return and cross.
(4) the business center

Business center decorate according to general office space design, such as the stone, ceramic tile, wood floor or carpet paving, using plywood, gypsum board, aluminum ceiling, the use of fluorescent lamp plate etc.
(5) store
The hotel shop is selling flowers, daily necessities, food, books and souvenirs place. Due to the different scale, even to one, the setting method is different also.
Small shop called canteen, can take a corner of the hall, with counter enclosing a area, internal to a commodity frame.

(6) the coffee shop
The hotel coffee shop (or bar) is selling drinks, coffee, drinks and snacks for the visitor rest, recreation and the place that receives a visitor. He has two kinds of arrangement: a from belongs to the hall, the hall is part of, but there are flower-stand, rail, etc and public movable part phase isolation, or with different hall in the same level; Another kind is completely independent, which itself is an independent space, through the door and even through the corridors, lobby and connected to the lobby. The first kind of coffee shop, lobby to active the atmosphere, organized "to" landscape; The second kind of coffee shop, relatively quiet, the area is larger, often more suitable for making friends, business and other activities.
The coffee shop main furniture and equipment has three parts: part is the dispersion of desk and chair, not the table or for round or square table is, by and large, are two table, table 3 and 4 table; The chair or for bamboo rattan round chair, or for sofa chair, chair of mass is more general, the purpose is to make the user feel comfortable and comfortable.

In addition to the foregoing part outside, in the lobby should also set up the bathroom men and women.
Five, the lobby design principles
(a) to activity zoning
The general method is, the central focus of public activities, the relatively private space around to. Central to person, content (mainly passenger's luggage) distribution, therefore, to have enough area to a less influence people, goods distribution of components, components and the scenery. Around the center of the reception area and recreational area to less influenced by past flow, logistics interference, so that guests can orderly procedures, leisurely meditation, rest, shopping, viewing, listening to music or enjoy the decoration of the hotel.
(2) to have a clear stream of logistics
Customers into their stores basic program is a short break, arranging luggage, register, into the elevator, to a room. ChuDian program and the contrary, therefore, the position of the relevant part should be in accordance with this order.
(3) to meet the hotel standard interface to decorate
The hotel lobby is the window of the hotel, guests of the hotel is in and out of the necessary land, and the quality of the environment and atmosphere directly affect the image of the hotel, so most of the hotel will be the key that decorate as the lobby, a showcase to decorate level and skill.
The ground of the multi-purpose polished granite and marble pavement, because most of the lobby of the central no furniture, thus here for spelling a flower. The ground can also be spread carpet completely or the use of high quality wood, such as walnut, teak, northeast China ash, etc. Wall-to-wall carpet person, gorgeous and beautiful, but is not easy to maintain and clean; The use of wood, good elasticity, but poor wear resistance.
Metope multi-purpose stone, ceramic tile and wood, occasionally with glass, stainless steel, steel, iron, etc used for ornament. Granite and marble metope, luxurious feeling, but too cold, paving area is too high, but also possibly affect the lobby of the sound quality. On the metope of the hall there are many large murals, relief or tapestry, they not only can increase the metope adornment sex, can also reflect the characteristics of the lobby.
Ceiling has ups and downs, some still according to or or west style use well case, colored drawing or gypsum flower. Condole top material for plywood, its apparent need to use wallpaper or coating. The lobby of the central especially through several storeys high part of the multi-purpose luxurious droplight, its surroundings due to low height is multi-purpose dimension of Jane lamp or absorb dome light.
(4) to have distinctive characteristics of display
The hotel features theory must be reflected in each aspect, but first of all must be reflected in the lobby, especially embodied in the lobby of the display. So should choose can reflect national, local, historic and with different themes furniture, handicraft, the sculpture, the flower-stand, opusculum, lamps and lanterns, afforestation, water and imaging, let the lobby become beautiful, fun, the most popular places.
In six, the international hotel design development trend
At present, the world has begun a new round of hotel design, New York, Tokyo, Paris, Hongkong, London, Shanghai and other international cities have recently emerged in the new period to lead the trend of the five Stars Hotel, although under the different hotel management company, different locations, different sizes, but they all show some common points, it is become more and more diversified, personalized, comprehensive.
This development trend tells us, this hotel is not a single theme, luxury, boutique category, design hotel has been increasingly accepted by people. Emphasize the personality, the pursuit of novelty, breakthrough tradition, has become the design goal. Set to eat, live, conference, entertainment, leisure in one multi-functional, comprehensive full range of composite type hotel also has broad market.
Future Inn, not just a simple " design ", it will be combined with the concept of hotel culture, from the space planning building architecture point of view, the idea about travel, living and life form of design, while design becomes the key and advantage place hotel, upscale hotel design is not only to present the luxury, style as the goal, but to closer to human life to think. It requires more meet customers psychological needs. The guests entered the hotel will feel a warm, comfortable and popular atmosphere; at the same time, the design more embody the local culture. The same brand of hotels in different regions, different cultural backgrounds, different design, in order to reflect the regional cultural features. As guests enter the hotel, you know where I. As a work of art furnishings, sculpture, furniture and carpets are different the and so on, because of different cultural background and different regional differences through these articles clearly expressed, thereby to infection.
In addition, design pay more attention to hotel style function. Hotel design, hotel style effect is particularly important. In today's world is a world of fashion, and in different regions may have different fashion, fashion guide style and grades. Fashion instead of simple design, fresh and cultural background of the hotel, the Avenir Hotel style will become the mainstream.
What is worth mentioning is that: the development of science and technology design for the hotel brings new window. With the development of high technology, more and more new technologies, new materials are applied to the design of hotel, enhance the function of hotel, and to the green, environmental protection direction a step forward. Which room design is particularly representative, rooms and bathrooms have more space, furniture well-tailored, light, weak design nuanced, layout of traditional materials, indoor facilities more upscale and humanity, art furnishings elegant, classic, with the finishing touch effect; the bathroom to become outstanding science and technology and close focus embodiment of the stage, the guest even soak in the bathtub, but also can conveniently control the lights, bathroom TV, hands-free telephone, SPA music, the toilet seat is induction opening and flush, rooms with secret function fax machines, wireless or hardwired Internet, bed size and performance more and more comfortable, and ergonomic requirements. " Science and technology brings comfort " has become an important factor in the development of future hotel design.
In the resort hotel and high-rise Traders Hotel, pay more attention to the importance of landscape, sight, some high-rise Traders Hotel has put the lobby at the top, the scenery outside the window and city landscape as irreplaceable general background, extended the space. Catering buffet, the cuisine, open type kitchen, close service mode; interior design outdoor indoor and outdoor environment, pay attention to the overall coordination, not in the strict sense distinction between interior and exterior space. And independent restaurants often by professional restaurant design companies to complete, style difference to the overall hotel, and become a kind of trend.
In seven, China hotel design direction for the future
China hotel design starts later, but development is very rapid. At present, the world famous hotel groups have settled in China, it is our interior designer hitherto unknown opportunities. But there are many shortcomings, to international level goal of continuous efforts.
At present, China Hotel Design in general towards professional higher direction. Hotel building complex and highly comprehensive characteristic, requests the hotel design follows a highly professional mode of operation, and requests the hotel design and construction at the same time each participation in coordination. Professional hotel design hotel is the important guarantee of success.
Avenir Hotel should also be designed to more humane, green direction. Specific to the hotel function streamline distribution and efficient use of space, is a designer should pay attention to. If the space is not reasonable, will directly affect and lower efficiency, also will waste a lot of resources, energy and manpower. As a designer to complete the implementation of green concept, to achieve real environmental protection. In the interior design to create innovative environment is important, but Comfort Hotel is more important. For the use of materials should also be quite important, namely the material itself is durable, is advantageous for cleaning and maintenance, as well as the location and form of a hotel designer should pay attention to. Future hotel design, suitable for hotel use material and design methods is needed to improve the designer. The next Chinese hotel will also China regional and national culture to better integrate into the hotel design.
At the same time, designers in the design, should in the early design to large preview his lessons, such as the owners to understand the ideas and business model, the study of local local customs and practices and humanistic characteristics, knowledge of hotel management company's market analysis and positioning, according to the different characteristics of each project to create a unique image and characteristics of the hotel design. Exquisite workmanship, lamp beautiful lamps, fashionable, in harmony with the surrounding environment of furniture, with a strong artistic appeal display pieces, and a set of exquisite tableware, these free in some designers out of sight elements, can bring to the guest does not generally amazing experience. Therefore, designers should be reasonable control of project cost, the decoration, furnishings and decorative hardware is put in coequal and important aspects into consideration, so as to obtain the best overall hotel environment.
