Miami FL, Monday November 28 — On Monday, November 28 , KENNETH COBONPUE feted designers and
architects at the iconic Esme Hotel in South Beach kicking off Design Week in Miami. The immersive dinner is a
series of gatherings around the country aimed to celebrate the love of design through the lens of the KENNETH
COBONPUE company mission: design with purpose. For 2022, Cobonpue decided to offer designs that might
provide even a small sense of comfort, both physically and mentally, and the result is several new pieces. The
evening was a special partnership with Regional Media Sponsor Modern Luxury Interiors South Florida.
The occasion, led by managing partner of KENNETH COBONPUE, Christopher Reiter, transported guests to
another world via the hotel’s notable Spanish-Mediterranean influence on Esmé’s architecture, with a small
cocktail reception that started in “Los Paseos” and ending with a dinner in their “El Salon”.
“Design is a dialogue. Our collection is our modern, organic vocabulary through the prism of our
company and how we define design’s purpose. To us design should elicit the endorphins of comfort and
happiness. And that’s we want to share with our design community” – Christopher Reiter
