The Colorful Collaboration is Inspired by
Chen’s Family’s Love of Reading
Global design company, West Elm, a portfolio brand of
Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM), the world’s largest
digital-first, design-led and sustainable home retailer, announced
today a collaboration with Eva Chen. The fashion tastemaker and
mother of three has written nine acclaimed children’s books,
including The New York Times’ best seller Juno Valentine and the
Magical Shoes and I Am Golden. Chen’s family’s love of reading
influenced the designs of her new 34-piece children’s assortment
for West Elm which features furniture, textiles, lighting and
decorative accessories.

“Eva has fantastic taste and is acutely aware of what parents
want for a kid’s room: products that are highly functional while
maintaining great style,” says Day Kornbluth, President of West
Elm. “She is also kind, collaborative and a pleasure to work
with.”
Select items within the new Eva Chen for West Elm collaboration
were fashioned specifically to store children’s books and to
encourage reading. The Lofted Bed features a reading nook, the
Chair and a Half sits two comfortably and the Tent Floor Cushion
provides a cozy spot to curl up with a good book. The Arched
Reading Bookcase sits perfectly low for children to easily select
their book of choice.
Chen states, "There are nods to literacy and the love of books
woven throughout. The Arched Reading Bookcase is intended for kids
to literally kick up their feet and read. The capsule is a little
bit quirky, not centered around being too perfect and ultimately
super livable.”
Additional key items in the new Eva Chen for West Elm collection
include the Play Table and Stool Set ($549), the Save-As Storage
Shelf ($599), the Playful Shapes Rug ($399) and the Rolling Art
Easel ($249).
