Pottery Barn opens its first PBteen store at Lenox
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Hear ye, hear ye, Pottery Barn devotees: Lenox Square is quickly becoming your mecca.
As if having the nation’s largest Pottery Barn and Pottery Barn Kids stores wasn’t enough, the home furnishings and accessories retailer is now opening its first-ever PBteen store in Buckhead on November 8, according to PB Spokeswoman Sarah Lynam.
She explained that Atlanta has consistently been one of the Williams-Sonoma-owned company’s largest markets; further, because the “Kids” store moved to old Pottery Barn space (across from Bloomingdale’s), the company had room to test out a PBteen spot. PBteen will open with an 1,800 square foot space. (By comparison, Pottery Barn Kids is an 11,700 square foot space while the new Pottery Barn at Lenox is a whopping 33,000 square feet.)
Most of us know the traditional PB offerings: transitional, (albeit craftsman-style) furniture, casual canvas upholstery, and an endless assortment of cozy pillows, linens, frames and other home accessories. But what will set the PBteen store apart?
According to Lynam, teen offerings include bedroom, study and lounge furniture (and bedding), lighting and iPod compatible products. She added that given the Nov. 8 opening, look for the Lenox store to have an array of teen-appropriate holiday gifts. For a preview, check out the PBteen website.
What’s next? Our money is on Pottery Barn “Active Adults.”
