Having always been intrigued and inspired by the historical narrative of the decorative arts, especially traditional French toile with its pastoral motifs from the late 1700s, Bridges began developing a toile that honored the Harlem neighborhood she calls home. The resulting Harlem Toile de Jouy artwork has since become an iconic symbol of Bridges’ design aesthetic and has been featured in notable museums around the world. Bridges partnered with Williams Sonoma and Williams Sonoma Home on new interpretations and applications of the artwork for products ranging from embroidered pillows to glassware and bar accessories.

“Sheila’s use of color and her ability to blend time periods, patterns and various design aesthetics into her work has been a source of inspiration for our design teams throughout the years,” said Williams Sonoma and Williams Sonoma Home President, Felix Carbullido. “We are thrilled that our new collaboration with Sheila will provide an opportunity for our customers to feature products that showcase aspects of her signature style in their homes.”

“I love that toile patterns tell stories, and as an interior designer, I think of myself as a visual storyteller. I wanted to see a toile that was more representative of my life and include people of color, so I decided to design one for myself,” said Sheila Bridges. “I think everyone wants to figure out a way to express their own sense of personal style in their homes and I think this collection can help people to do that.”
