First Look: The Marie Flanigan Collection for Annie Selke
The exclusive collection pairs traditional and timeless elegance with modern elements for a refined yet inviting look.
Last week, Annie Selke, Founder and Chief Vision Officer of The Annie Selke Companies, and Marie Flanigan, principal of award-winning Houston, Texas, design firm Marie Flanigan Interiors, announced their collaboration: The Marie Flanigan Collection for Annie Selke. The collection, which will launch in September, takes inspiration from Flanigan’s trademark blend of everyday sophistication and innovative simplicity. Her signature palette of sumptuous neutrals paired with subtle textures can be seen throughout the assortment of rugs, bedding, decorative pillows, and chic accessories—all designed by the Houston-native.
Flanigan, who is a trained architect, principal of her eponymous firm, and mom of 3, connected with Selke and pitched her ideas. “After being in the design industry for over a decade, I noticed a consistent thread in the types of textiles I was drawn to but always had trouble finding the right pieces,” says Flanigan. “I dreamed of creating my own rugs, bedding, and pillows that could fill the gap between what I was trying to source and what was actually available. And when looking for a creative partner, I knew Annie would be a natural fit. As a female entrepreneur, she is such an inspiration to countless designers, including myself, and it’s such a privilege to work with and learn from her.”
Selke felt the same way. “When introduced to Marie’s work, I was immediately drawn to her aesthetic. She has created a signature look that manages to be classic, modern, elevated and luxuriously serene all at the same time,” notes Selke. “Her attention to detail is extraordinary—not fussy, just fabulous! All of the pieces in this collection truly reflect her style and feature a wonderful mix of constructions that feel sophisticated yet incredibly functional.”
Already launched for Wholesale, keep an eye out for this sumptuously sophisticated collection that comes out this September!
