Russian tennis star and entrepreneur, Maria Sharapova has made a foray into furniture designing.  Sharapova, 33, who owns a candy brand, Sugarpova, has joined hands with Vancouver-based Rove Concepts to create elegant furniture. The initial offering includes a sofa, a bench, signature fabrics, side tables, a lamp and a rug.

“I wanted to make sure that all the pieces work as extensions of people’s lives—pieces that complement the things they already live with,” Sharapova was quoted as saying by Architectural Digest magazine. 

The five-time Grand Slam champion honed her design skills during her travels across the globe as well as while renovating her house in Los Angeles. “I drew a lot of inspiration from my own home, which I designed to feel like somewhat of an oasis—a place I could return to after traveling around the world for my sport or even a day of busy meetings,” Sharapova added.
