SAN FRANCISCO , February 27, 2014 (press release) – The Stylehouse is a Design Destination for Teens to Gather Ideas to Inspire Their Space, Their Style and Their Lives.

-PBteen, a member of the Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) portfolio of brands, today unveiled its proprietary blog, The Stylehouse. The vision of the blog is to give tweens and teens a place to find design inspiration and fuel their budding imaginations for home décor. The Stylehouse aims to help teens gather fresh ideas for their space, their style and their lives. To celebrate the blog’s launch, teens are invited to visit The Stylehouse today through March 14th and enter for a chance to win a $500 PBteen gift card.

The Stylehouse encompasses a variety of aspects in a typical teen's life – from making your bedroom feel all your own, to finding great gifts for your best friends and even maximizing space in your dorm room. Content will be created by PBteen editors, brand ambassadors and carefully curated blogger partnerships.

The blog will focus on four primary channels:

Decorate – roundups of personal style and DIY project ideas; inspiration from the PBteen design team on home décor and trends
Celebrate – festive ideas for seasonal holidays and life events such as graduation, prom and sweet sixteen
Dorm – all things dorm, including dorm tours, editorial content from current college students and recipes for dorm-friendly meals
Behind the Scenes – career profiles of PBteen employees, sneak peeks at catalog shoots and PBteen stylist tips

“The Stylehouse is a natural extension of the PBteen brand that allows us to connect with our teen customers in a thoughtful relevant way,” said Sandra Stangl, president of Pottery Barn Brands. “We hope The Stylehouse will provide an engaging experience for tweens and teens where they will be encouraged to explore their creativity and unique personal style.”
