Furniture World Magazine

Bernacki and Associates, Oakley Interiors, Cinematronix USA, and Lake Forest Antique Consignment have announced an alliance to provide a single, complete source for the Architect, Interior Designer, Fine Home Builder, and Homeowner. The four companies will make their products and services available through a new entity called Conservation and Design International located at 424 North Oakley Boulevard in Chicago. "The concept is to provide a stage upon which our clients may deal directly with the professionals and artists necessary for the realization of their project. Collectively, we are able to provide a one stop source for conservation and restoration of furniture and art objects, authentic period re-upholstery and custom upholstery, custom woodwork, and private cinema design and fabrication," said Stan Bernacki, President of Bernacki and Associates. Jerry Chlopek, President of Oakley Interiors adds," We have brought together modern technology with old-world craftsmanship. As a group, we are committed to providing the best possible service to our clients, which makes their experience very pleasant and personalized." "A private home theatre should be looked upon as an integral part of one's house," says John Cudak, General Manager of Cinematronix USA. "To maximize its potential value as a home improvement, it should harmonize - not conflict - with the overall sensibility of the house. In response to the needs of architects, interior designers, and homeowners, Cinematronix offers a selection of classic, architecturally-researched styles for the dedicated home theatre, including Georgian Traditional, Art Deco, Prairie School, Country Colonial, Regency, Baroque, and Bauhaus. The homeowner no longer needs to worry about their home theatre investment one day becoming a dated aesthetic blooper in the larger architectural context of their home".
