Robert Jones, a creative force behind Sage & Co. and an industry leader in design, has joined Napa Home & Garden as vice president creative.
Jones will help the Atlanta-based home décor vendor expand its product mix and introduce a Holiday home decor collection for Napa. Jone joins KC Cunningham, Napa creative director on the company's design team.
"This is a game changer," said Napa CEO Jerry Cunningham. "The combination of KC and Robert makes Napa Home & Garden one of the strongest brands in the business."
Jones will immediately launch a 1,000 sku Christmas line for Napa, with introduction in January 2015. He brings more than 20 years experience in Christmas and floral to Napa and is recognized industry-wide for his adept styling and signature looks.
"The strategic move to hire Robert and add Christmas is in keeping with our commitment to our customers," said Cunningham. "Now retailers, big and small, can get more of the style they want in a single shopping experience."
To accommodate this growth, Napa also announces it is adding space to its showrooms in Atlanta, Dallas and Las Vegas. Napa Home & Garden finds its inspirations from the casual lifestyle of the Napa Valley, where the company was founded.
“It’s great to be side by side with Robert again,“ said KC Cunningham. “We share so many passions; the beauty of nature, animal welfare, and of course high design. We adore working together.”
“I think KC and I complement and enhance each other's style,” said Jones. “When we collaborate, there is a spark and an energy that's very invigorating. We're going to make great things together. I'm proud and honored to have been asked to join such a talented team. I'm looking forward to making Napa my home and working with the Cunninghams for years to come.”
