Outdoor furnishings supplier Pride Family Brands teamed with designer Kristin Alber to create vignettes using Pantone’s two colors of the year—Rose Quartz and Serenity—throughout the Atlanta’s AmericasMart during the recent Home and Gift Market.
Pride Family Brands’ latest contemporary collection, Park Place, was featured in a street-side window by Alber on display for market goers to see.
A celebrated designer, Alber’s design work has been featured in national publications including Country Home, Country Living, Where Women Cook, Where Women Create, Rue Magazine and Luxe Magazines. She currently works as the creative director at REstyleSOURCE and is the primary buyer and co-owner of FOUND, Chandler, Ariz.
Alber was responsible for three of the Pantone Design Exhibition’s vignettes and incorporated products from exhibiting sponsors into each design focused on 2016’s colors.
“One of our goals is to inspire our Market attendees with stunning displays and creative merchandising,” said Jill Ford, vice president of leasing for The Gardens and casual furniture. “By presenting a series of styled vignettes in partnership with Pantone across campus, we hope buyers and designers will realize the exceptional resources available at AmericasMart. Incorporating Castelle furniture from Pride Family Brands is a stellar example of how high-end casual product can transform a space. We are thrilled they worked with us on a showcase vignette for The Atlanta International Gift & Home Furnishings Market in January and look forward to future projects.”
As a sponsor of the Pantone Design Exhibition, Pride Family Brands’ products joined other sponsor products on display in vignettes by designers including Robert Leleux, Shaun Smith, Jamie Durie, Heather Hogan Roberts, Janie Hirsch, Michael Habachy, Michel Boyd, Tami Ramsay, Krista Nye Schwartz of CLOTH & KIND, and Alber.
