DIVA GROUP established its first showroom in the West Hollywood district of Los Angeles County in 1985. Originally conceptualized as a space specializing solely in lighting, the showroom quickly evolved into the premier destination for contemporary furnishings from the finest manufacturers in Europe, including B&B Italia, Maxalto, Cassina, Kartell, and Flos.

By 2001 DIVA GROUP began looking to expand its market, specifically in a partnership with B&B Italia. Settling in the Pacific Northwest, the collaboration produced not only a second DIVA showroom in Seattle, but the only other B&B Italia flagship showroom in the United States outside of New York City. The Seattle showroom, designed by Antonio Citterio, a legend of modern Italian contemporary furniture design, became the perfect setting to showcase the ever-evolving lifestyle campaigns of the B&B Italia & Maxalto furniture lines.

The Seattle showroom, now in its 20th year, has since become the premier destination for the best in Italian design and has its design roots firmly planted in the culture of the city of Seattle. We welcome you to visit and experience the ultimate in sophistication, innovation and luxury at Diva Furniture / B&B Italia Seattle.

Ben Soleimani

Ben Soleimani is nothing short of a visionary. Coming from four generations of rug purveyors, he developed his love and expertise of texture and learned how to utilize it to unparalleled effect in his coveted designs. Never satisfied with the status quo he went as far as developing his own weaves and textures, the first to incorporate unusual and unexpected materials (utilizing sustainable materials long before it was de rigueur). He quickly became known throughout the design community as an innovator. Soleimani has been on the forefront of modernizing the once staid rug industry and has been instrumental in turning rugs into a multi-billion dollar force with past projects such as Mansour, Mansour Modern and Restoration Hardware (RH), he left both to focus solely on his eponymous brand.

An urban developer as well, Soleimani is widely known for the Melrose High Street project, a regentrification of Melrose Ave in Los Angeles, which is now a world renown haven for the most unique and innovative brands.

Soleimani is finally turning his passion, unique expertise and perspective to his own brand. Ben Soleimani’s eponymous line is founded with the mission: Provide luxury for your home without compromising quality thus forever changing how people design and shop for their homes. Each offering has his signature aesthetic–refined design paired with a singular appreciation of texture. Soleimani’s vision is a lifestyle destination for those who desire the best quality, design, and service to enhance their lives and create a sanctuary within their home.
