SUMMER is just about here, but a frolic in sand and sea isn’t everybody’s idea of a long weekend idyll, especially given the increasing tedium of travel. So how about cocooning in the comforts of your own home?
The global upscale home-furnishing store chain Pottery Barn—which has branches around these parts located at Central Square in Bonifacio High Street Central, Taguig, and Estancia in Capitol Commons in Pasig—makes staycation opportunities even more inviting with its newest collections.
Surround yourself with the classic beauty of English Colonial furniture that has been updated with modern details when you add to your sleep space pieces from the Pottery Barn’s Crosby Bedroom Collection, which includes a bed, tall dresser and bedside table in rich espresso.
The Crosby collection is defined by a delicate elegance with beautiful details, from the sleigh bed with its beautifully proportioned molding and a slat-roll support system that provides supports with or without a box spring; to the night stand in classic lines crafted from poplar wood and given a silky-smooth finish; to the dresser whose hardware comes in either a nickel finish on the white models and glowing bronze on the espresso pieces.
Meanwhile, there’s the Calistoga Bedroom Collection, which features the look of natural fibers and stunning wood grain with the warmth of oak.
Match these furniture pieces up with adornments that speak to you, including earth-toned drapes and comforters. Spread natural-fiber rugs on the floor to complete the look.
Now, who says a staycation can’t be as sublimely rewarding as a trip to the beach? From our cozy, comfy pocket in the home, we dare say it’s even infinitely more gratifying.
