Award-Winning HGTV Star and Expert Interior Designer, Genevieve Gorder, Joins Beanstalk’s Client Roster
NEW YORK CITY, October 27, 2014 – Leading global brand extension agency, Beanstalk, has signed popular HGTV talent, Genevieve Gorder, for representation. Beanstalk will bring Gorder’s soulful and whimsical design point-of-view to adult and juvenile home décor products, offering consumers creative decorating solutions that transform everyday spaces.
In addition to being an award-winning HGTV star, Genevieve Gorder runs an interior design studio, TV production company, digital magazine and is a mother to her 6 year old daughter. Gorder has recently starred in HGTV’s Dear Genevieve, HGTV Star, A Hero’s Welcome Home, and also hosts the network’s White House Christmas Special. Her newest series, Genevieve’s Renovation, premiered on HGTV in July 2014 and follows Gorder as she takes on her biggest client yet – herself and her own New York City apartment.
“Designing your home is much more than just creating a new aesthetic,” said Genevieve Gorder. “It’s about translating soul. How do you make soul visual and tangible? This is the question I must answer through my collection. Design has such an incredible impact on our moods and the ways we behave and live. I am confident that Beanstalk’s unparalleled experience in the home space will continue to bring my vision to life at retail and allow consumers to understand how powerful even small updates to their space can be.”
“We are really thrilled to be chosen by Genevieve to help bring her design vision to life, engaging with both her loyal fans as well as new consumers,” said Allison Ames, President of Beanstalk. “As one of America’s favorite interior designers, Genevieve has a distinctive design sensibility that can be easily leveraged to create products for the home. She has such a soulful and engaging personality and she’s an urban mom, all of which make her incredibly relatable. We look forward to identifying the right partners that will properly execute on Genevieve’s vision.”
