In the News: Designers Guest Star in EF+LM’s Capsule Concept (Part 2)

The debut Capsule collection for Edward Ferrell + Lewis Mittman (EF+LM) was designed by David Herchik, principal of JDS Designs in Washington, DC. A long-time beloved client of EF+ LM, Herchik is known within the company for his imaginative and beautiful custom designs.

“David has challenged us with amazing custom work for years and has been a true partner to EF+LM," said EF+LM President Jobi Blachy. "We actually used some of his custom product from projects as a starting point for the entire collection.”

“EF+LM will continue to support our current wonderful licensees,” said Jobi. “They have been tremendous supporters of EF+LM for many years and their creations represent some of our best selling designs. Our Capsule Collection designers will be wonderful additions to the EF+LM family!”

The Crisfield Chair: From Custom to Mainstream

The Crisfield Chair is a welcome addition to the wonderful array of upholstered chairs at Edward Ferrell + Lewis Mittman (EF+LM). Designed by top client David Herchik, principal of JDS Designs in Washington, D.C., this chair is a perfect marriage of comfort and beauty.

“The concept for the Crisfield chair came from a project we did in a house on the shore of southern Maryland,” said David. “I wanted to design a chair for the Theater or Cigar room which was very comfortable and with a higher back and neck rest.”

What makes this chair stand out, besides the tight tufting and unique 'Arts and Crafts' style turned legs, is its proportion. “The trick was to give this chair a smaller foot print, but make it comfortable to seat someone 6’2" plus. And the curvaceous shape to the back provided incredible lumbar support; the perfect place to watch your favorite movie or big game!”

The Crisfield Chair is now available on the EF+LM website, or see it in person at their showroom in the DDB, PDC, DCOTA or DCH.
