Unlimited Earth Care has teamed up with interior designer Bea Pernia of BEA Interiors Design for a summer collaboration. On June 27, as Unlimited Earth Care celebrates 20 years at its Bridgehampton headquarters, an event will unveil pieces from Pernia’s Bubble Collection at the space.
Debuted at Design Miami in December, Pernia’s Bubble Collection features handcrafted furniture in organic forms and natural materials. The collection will complement the landscape designs of Frederico Azevedo, the award-winning designer and founder of Unlimited Earth Care, who uses native and adaptable plants to create natural, expressive outdoor spaces and integrates stone, water, and sculptures to enhance the landscape.
We spoke to Azevedo about the event and collaboration.
Tell us about the upcoming collaboration between Unlimited Earth Care and Bea Pernia.
Yes, I am excited to announce that Unlimited Earth Care will collaborate this summer with interior designer Bea Pernia of BEA Interiors Design and feature a curated selection of pieces from her latest Bubble Collection at the Garden Concept Store in Bridgehampton.
How did this collaboration come about?
I met Bea at Design Miami during Art Basel in December, and when I saw her work, as a garden and landscape designer, I was excited because I was immediately imagining what they would look like in a garden. Her work heightens the inherent textures and colors of natural materials, and they’re a beautiful complement to my designs. In my work, I focus on building rich color palettes with native and well-adapted plants and flowers and creating overflowing, curving floral borders that could almost feel spontaneous, but they’re composed very intentionally. The Bubble Collection enhances a garden or landscape without distracting from the colors and textures of the environment.
Can you share the background of the Bubble Collection and how it complements Unlimited Earth Care’s landscape designs?
The Bubble Collection is a series of handcrafted furniture in marble, travertine, limestone, and wood, in these organic forms that respond to nature, but still feel very sculptural. My approach to designing landscapes and gardens is also about balancing my sense of design and the beauty of natural materials and colors. Bringing furniture and sculptures into the garden, what I call the “more” of garden design, is the part of the design process where I really get to collaborate with my clients. Maybe there’s an area where the light is particularly serene at a certain time of day, or where butterflies visit, and they would like a seating area there, so they come to my store, and I help them find something special. I really enjoy sourcing bespoke and interesting pieces for the Unlimited Earth Care Garden Concept Store, and I’m excited to carry a curated selection of pieces from the Bubble Collection this summer.
The event on June 27 celebrates Unlimited Earth Care’s 20th anniversary. What are you most looking forward to at the event?
This year, our summer event will be held at the Unlimited Earth Care Headquarters in Bridgehampton at 2249 Scuttle Hole Road from 4 to 7 PM. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served, and guests will enjoy shopping and mingling amongst the flowers. Unlimited Earth Care is celebrating twenty years at our Bridgehampton headquarters and, of course, our collaboration with Bea Pernia. Your readers are very welcome, and I am most looking forward to seeing everyone there and talking design and flowers.
