On June 24, Williams Sonoma, Williams Sonoma Home and Hill House Home hosted a festive twilight celebration at Williams Sonoma’s Columbus Circle store in New York to mark the launch of their new collaboration.
The exclusive collection brings Hill House Home’s signature romantic aesthetic to the tabletop, entertaining and home categories, with delicate florals, soft color palettes, heirloom-inspired details and elevated craftsmanship throughout. Guests had the opportunity to meet Hill House Home founder and CEO Nell Diamond while browsing and shopping the new collection, and each attendee received custom embroidery on an apron from the line, adding a personal touch to the evening and a memorable first look at the designs.
Bringing the Hill House experience to life, Nell’s Coffee Bar offered a tasting experience powered by Philips, spotlighting the Café Aromis 8000 Series espresso machine. As part of the activation, Diamond, Williams Sonoma and Philips developed five themed coffee recipes inspired by the coffee shop within the Hill House Charleston store, each reflecting the charm, style and seasonal spirit of the collection. The result gave guests a hands-on way to experience the product while celebrating the launch.
“Williams Sonoma is a brand I have admired and shopped for years, and one that so many of us associate with creating a warm, welcoming home,” said Diamond. “I started Hill House as a home brand, so this collaboration feels incredibly meaningful and full circle to see our prints and aesthetic come to life on so many different home, tabletop, entertaining and furniture pieces. Together, we have created a collection that celebrates gathering, everyday rituals, and the idea that beautiful, thoughtfully designed pieces can make even the simplest moments feel special.”
The evening drew a crowd of media and design-world guests, including Annie Goldsmith and Benjamin Reynaert of Elle Decor; editors from Veranda, the Today show, Good Morning America and CNN; fashion journalist Bella Gerard Fayne; content creator Isabel Klee; and the team from Noun New York.
Over 200 guests attended the celebration, which marked a warm introduction to a collection rooted in vintage charm, hospitality and elevated craftsmanship.
