YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST: CARA WOODHOUSE LAUNCHES CAPSULE COLLECTION WITH ABC STONE
ABC Stone Taps Powerhouse Interior Designer Cara Woodhouse to Design Inaugural Collection For Their Furniture Vertical
Cara has had a longstanding relationship with ABC Stone, using the brand and their elevated products in many of her projects as well as speaking on a branded panel to celebrate the opening of ABC’s flagship NYC Showroom. It was this organic relationship and respect for each other's craft that encouraged ABC Stone to tap Cara for their first ever cohesive capsule collection.
Titled the ‘Classic Rock Capsule Collection’ the collection includes 9 pieces in 5 different marble colorways, exclusively made of the finest quality Italian cubic blocks of stone. The theme of rock and roll was a source of inspiration throughout the design process and collection–juxtaposing the unexpected whimsy that is rock music alongside the forceful and unmoving elements of literal rock. After almost two years of brainstorming and perfecting, both brands are thrilled to be officially unveiling this collection TODAY!
Having always been fascinated with how Mother Nature can create such beauty, these pieces are an ode to Cara’s long-standing obsession with stone as a material. Cara notes that “each piece definitely has a bit of my signature design style, very curvaceous and elevated. I am always drawn to circular and curved rather than sharp edges. It's more inviting to me and a luxurious feeling having a sense of softness.”
ABC Stone’s VP of Marketing and Creative Director Lyndsey Belle Tyler notes of the collaboration, “Cara brought such a fun, instinctual air to the process. She just ran with the idea and we ended up with something that truly elucidates the magic of stone as an element and really highlights its transformational qualities. This collection is literally stone art. We want those who integrate these pieces into their projects and spaces to understand that they are investing in a bespoke sculptural object that is meant to spark wonder and joy. No two pieces will ever be the same, because the stone it is created from will never be the same.”

Cara has long been known for her industry collaborations, noting that “collaborations are a chance to join creative forces and create a joint community, something that I love doing and fortunate to do with so many wonderful businesses and artisans that I admire. This is something that was lacking as I was coming up as an interior designer early on in my career and it brings me such joy to feel connected and express support to designers and uplift the design community as a whole.”
