Aaron Poritz — an American-born designer who divides his time between New York City, Managua and Nicaragua — is the creative mind behind AP Furniture, which he established last year. Specializing in responsibly-sourced hardwood furniture pieces, AP strives to blend a traditional approach to craftsmanship with contemporary designs that reflect today's trends. Though AP is still very new on the scene, with the first collection debuting last month in NYC, their finished pieces show off a very mature design aesthetic that is sure to fit in with any living space.
