Mercedes Benz is a familiar name in the car industry, a luxury vehicle that is sure to be limited to the upper class. But in the world of business, there is no telling when companies would venture out towards other niches and it looks like Mercedes Benz is dipping its hands in the furniture biz.

Called as the Mercedes Benz Style furniture collection, the new line will hit furniture stores and showrooms by October of this year. The first set will include a sofa, a chaise lounge, sideboard, dining room tables and chairs.

It will also have a shelf unit with an integrated home theatre system, bed and a chest of drawers. The whole furniture showcase is a result of Mercedes Benz’ collaboration with the Formitalia Luxury Group where most of the pieces carry a familiar automobile identity and of course the familiar Mercedes Benz Style logo.

LG Collins has been very busy these days. Aside from embarking on aggressive advertising campaigns, their appliances and electronic lines are quite busy trying to provide quality home appliance solutions to entice customer preference and of course to boost the brand standing that it currently holds.

While other companies are focusing on the downsizing and decreasing of their overhead capital, LG has been busy communicating with influential artists for new concepts of modern day living, trying to fill up the gaps that most people want to place in their homes.

Much of this can be seen from showrooms where a lot of people fall prey to the trap of wanting the ideal home design to look as presented by the interior designers. With that said, copying or checking out the concepts and appliances they saw is something that LG Collins has seen as a good opportunity to refresh and adhere to potential deals from future home investors in the market.
