Crate & Barrel unveiled its latest collaboration with interior designer, author and entertaining expert, Athena Calderone. Crate & Barrel's design leadership and Calderone's artful eye create a purposeful collection of furniture, kitchen, entertaining, and décor products for beautiful, modern living.

"We were thrilled to work with Athena to create timeless pieces that transcend trends," said Sebastian Brauer, Senior Vice President of Product Design, Head of Metaverse and Web 3.0. "Athena's aspirational vision and commitment to live beautiful coupled with our design centric craftsmanship and values of living with purpose and intention come through in the authentic details and materials across this lifestyle collection."

Inspired by elements of contemporary, global design, the collection draws on Athena's signature style of making familiar shapes feel new and fresh paired with Crate & Barrel's rich heritage of modern design. Much like the informed collection that took Athena years to curate for her own home, these products connect past, present and future, by mixing materials, finishes, and periods of architectural influence.

"The shared vision of making beautiful design accessible to all was truly captured through this collaboration with Crate & Barrel and I can't wait to see how people style the pieces." said Athena Calderone. "What an honor it is to think about how the collection will live on in people's intimate homes and spaces for years to come."

The entire collection brings ease and elegance to any home. The Scandinavian-inspired shearling Le Tuco Chair, and the Angolare sofa featuring soft mohair fabric, bring warmth to living spaces. The entertaining pieces create an elevated tone atop the Es Taller dining table, with details like the European revival ridged motif of the Pile Parfaite dinnerware. While décor including the Crucible Planters and the Facette and Énorme Cannelee Vases, give ancient forms a sleek, modern look.

Available exclusively at Crate & Barrel starting today, customers can shop the Athena Calderone for Crate & Barrel collection online at www.crateandbarrel.com/athena and at select stores across the U.S. The new collection features 137 pieces and ranges in price from $7.95 - $2,699.00.
