Laura Harrier and Tiffany Howell have turned a shared design shorthand into an 87-piece collection for Crate & Barrel, and the first market release arrives tomorrow. The range pulls from cinema, fashion and interiors in the same breath, with a salon sofa and swivel accent chair set against a gold sheen coffee table from the line.
The pair said their tastes have merged to the point that a single reference can stand in for a whole room, with Harrier comparing that shorthand to naming an Elsa Peretti cuff to explain a table. The collection leans into high-pile cognac rugs, burl wood pieces, gold accents and cream lacquer, and the Siren bed pairs fluted beige upholstery with a burl wood frame. The assortment also includes the Duras dresser, the Lucie burl and chrome console, the Laura & Tiffany Laurent dining chair, the Silhouette ceramic vase, the Anais 3-wick candle, the Arlo bar cabinet and the marbled telephone table.
It is the first collection Harrier and Howell have created for market, following years of interiors work that began with Harrier’s home in 2020, which was featured in Architectural Digest. Harrier, known for Ryan Murphy’s Hollywood, and Howell, the founder of Night Palm, have since worked on multiple projects together, building a visual language that draws from Blue Velvet and Basic Instinct as much as from ’80s and ’90s design. Howell said the process began in Harrier’s home with Paris, Texas and “the sweater that [Natasha] had on,” a signal that the collaboration starts with scenes, not seasonal trends.
That makes the collection feel less like a brand exercise than a continuation of a shared eye that has been developing for years. Howell was blunt about that approach, saying they are not really pulling from trends. With the launch set for tomorrow, Crate & Barrel is betting that shoppers will respond to a collection that treats furnishings like film stills, and to a partnership that has already proved it can move from one home to a full market debut.
