Designers Jeremiah Brent and Nate Berkus.
PetSmart and interior designers Nate Berkus and Jeremiah Brent are teaming to launch an exclusive collection of pet furniture and decor.
The Nate + Jeremiah for PetSmart collection includes items such as a faux leather couch for guinea pigs and hamsters to a mahogany stand to showcase aquatic life. The assortment is said by PetSmart to be a first of its kind for the specialty pet category and features items that can be layered into a variety of looks and styles.
"We'll do anything for pets and, with this new collection, pet parents won't have to sacrifice their personal aesthetic to provide a wonderful home for them," said Stacia Andersen, executive vice president and chief customer officer at PetSmart. "We see pet parents taking greater interest in integrating their pets into their homes and, by bringing together Nate and Jeremiah and our unmatched expertise in pet care, we've created a line that is every bit as beautiful as it is functional.”
Berkus and Brent are known for their stylish aesthetics and accessible home collections. Their partnership with PetSmart gave them a new opportunity to create environments and products for pets.
"We wanted to create a collection for PetSmart that helps bring people and pets even closer together," Berkus said. "Our design philosophy is rooted in making spaces feel warm and inviting. With this collection, our hope is that we've been able to give pets the same level of functionality and style as their pet parents."
The two drew inspiration from the sleek lines of mid-century modern design and pulled in colors, materials and textures that have an organic and natural feel.
"We loved the challenge of bringing spaces and atmospheres to life that not only feel rich with personality but can also be worked into a variety of styles,” Brent said. “The idea was to create furniture and accessories that are contemporary but also timeless – items that tell the story of the people and pets who live there.”
The Nate + Jeremiah for PetSmart collection includes:
- Décor and accessories for hamsters, guinea pigs, gerbils and other small pets, such as faux leather and Sherpa sofas for relaxation, a yurt for pet privacy, and different chews and grass for foraging and mental stimulation.
- An assortment of stands in a variety of water-resistant finishes, including spiced mahogany, raven oak and faux marble. Pet parents can use the stands for fish aquariums, reptile terrariums or small pet habitats, and each offers ample storage space with drawers and cord management.
- Aquatic accessories and décor that suit different species of fish, including wooden archways and ribbed stone towers that give fish swimming and hiding spaces. Decorative plants from the collection provide fish shelter and allow pet parents to further customize their aquariums.
- Accessories perfect for bearded dragons, lizards, snakes and other reptiles to relax and bask in warmth and light, including a wood tower and stone bask and hide that reference the environments, colors and textures of their natural habitats.
- Easy-to-clean, modern food and water dishes for a variety of species that match the aesthetic of the pet's space as well as that of the pet parents.
