If you’ve spent any amount of time on Instagram or the internet, chances are you’re familiar with Christene Barberich, whether it’s her enviable collection of vintage clothing, her journey to motherhood, or the fact that she’s one of the co-founders of Refinery29 as well as their editor-in-chief. Her legendary fashion and design sense drives people in droves to her Instagram account to see what she’s wearing or how she’s styling her apartment as of late, so it’s no surprise she’s bringing that same aesthetic to a collection of vintage-inspired furnishings. The Inside x Christene Barberich collaboration, which includes beds, chairs, ottomans, screens, and pillows, perfectly translates her unique style with bold patterns and playful color combinations in a variety of accessible pieces all made in America.
Barberich noted artists Anni Albers, Edith Heath, Anne Griswold Tyng, and the Gee’s Bend, Alabama quilt makers as groundbreakers in their individual crafts and ones who’ve played a role in how she feels about home and design. With a hope that her own designs reflect a celebration of those works that influenced her, she’s passing a torch, so to speak, to others to create a home that informs the way you want to live.
