Pottery Barn Brisbane Opening And A Giveaway!

October 4, 2015 by Vikram Goyal

And the winner is …..

Jenny Nguen! Congratulations! We have sent you an email.

Pottery Barn is here. Pottery Barn is here!

Not just Pottery Barn, but Pottery Barn Kids and West Elm have opened up shop at the trendy Fortitude Valley James Street Precinct in Brisbane! And we were there for the grand opening!

Ron Young, Senior Vice President of Global, Williams-Sonoma, Inc. said that they had tried to customize to local tastes by taking note of the Brisbane weather, the outdoor feel that is trademark of the Queensland climate and bringing in lots of blues and lighter colors. He also thanked the nearly 90 part and full time staff that worked really hard to get the store ready in time for the launch.

And what a launch it was! People were queuing up around the block before the official opening. Apparently word had gone around that Pottery Barn was opening today and the locals rushed in to take a peek! The huge 2310 sq.m store and the nearly 30 staff in attendance were easily able to cater for the rush. The easy layout of the store allowed us to seamlessly navigate between the different stores and help was always a smiling attendant away.

Giveaway!
