Pottery Barn has expertly crafted collections of stylish indoor and outdoor furniture, accessories, décor and more for every room in your home. The American furniture retail shop has been in the country for a few years now.

Celebrated at its flagship store in Central Square and hosted by SSI Group Inc. president Anthony Huang, Pottery Barn hosted an intimate dinner for some of the country’s notable and most accomplished architects, interior designers and home curators.

Some of the architects included Anna Maria Sy-Lawrence, Budji Layug, Royal Pineda, Conrad Onglao and Ed Calma. Food stylist and author Stephanie Zubiri-Crespi and Tania Fricke Lichauco were seated next to me and we were all admiring the beautiful table setting adorned with Pottery Barn accents.

Honored guests were given an exclusive walkthrough of the Spring 2018 collections featuring Pottery Barn, Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm. From its flagship store at Estancia, highlight pieces from West Elm’s latest collection were especially brought to Central Square to showcase its modern furniture, home accessories and kitchen items.

Guests were given a private tour of the Spring 2018 collection featuring West Elm and Pottery Barn.

Each guest was also introduced to the Designers’ Circle Rewards Program and its new privileges, such as improved special rewards, promos, discounts and private access to upcoming events and the latest products.

For Spring 2018, think better basics, colorful prints, shiny metals and natural materials for Pottery Barn. Pottery Barn Kids is all bright, magical and coordinated—a mixture just right to make the younger ones as lively. For design inspirations that promise lasting style and perfect the industrial look, West Elm promises a collection that boasts of a clean, modern aesthetic that is infused with whimsical touches and striking silhouettes.

Following the walkthrough and introduction was a sumptuous six-course French artisan dinner catered by Happy Ongpauco-Tiu’s Happy Concept Group, complemented by her intricate tablescape composed of florals and succulents, candles and wooden fixtures.
