The fresh, 100-piece assortment beautifully blends Laura’s high fashion expertise and Crate & Barrel’s modern designs so as to evoke ultimate interior elegance. Each style—crafted in the eye of usability—holds a purpose within the home. Namely, the Papillon dining table and dining bench add sleek space ideal for any hostess’ routine fête.
Laura’s work as creative director of Oscar de la Renta only aids in her seamless transition toward homeware. As Crate & Barrel actively connects the work of artisans to a global audience, the collaboration proves effortless.
“I’m never interested in creating something that already exists. Whether I’m designing for the runway or creating a recipe for a dinner party, I want to create something new,” says Laura Kim. “Partnering with Crate & Barrel allowed me to do just that, create unique pieces that bring a whimsical yet modern edge into your home.”
The collection, which marks Crate & Barrel's first-ever partnership with a fashion designer, draws inspiration from The MONSE founder’s love of fresh ingredients and curated runway trends. The fringe trim oregano cotton napkins and green moss marble pedestal cake stand set the tone exemplifying earth-toned utensils with an into-the-garden-like feel.
“We're excited to partner with Laura Kim on her debut home collection, bringing our customers new products born from the unparalleled creativity and design expertise of our joint team," says Sebastian Brauer, Senior Vice President of Product Design at Crate & Barrel. "Each piece embodies a signature blend of timeless elegance and modern innovation, coming together as a collection that seamlessly brings fashion home.”
The celebrated designer, known for her especially stunning presentation, offers a unique take on homeware essentials. Crate & Barrel brings her vision to life beautifully in functional works of art that mold effortlessly into the home. Discover the full collection in-store or online here.
