MILAN — Actress, singer, businesswoman and interior designer Ashley Tisdale has settled into the world of home. Direct-to-consumer platform HomeThreads has partnered with Tisdale for an easy chic collection of furniture, lighting and decor, the company told WWD on Friday.
Their first collaboration, the Haven Collection by Frenshe Interiors x HomeThreads is on sale exclusively on homethreads.com, making Tisdale’s aesthetic available beyond her clients and family.
Tisdale, launched Frenshe (pronounced french-ee, a play on her married name, French), a lifestyle blog dedicated to sharing her passion for interior design and holistic well-being in 2020. She launched an interior design business also in 2020 and in 2022 joined forces with Target and incubator Maesa to launch her wellness line, Being Frenshe. After working with various interior designers, she began working on projects for clients with her father Michael Tisdale, who owns a Los Angeles-based construction firm, she said on Instagram.
The pieces reflect Tisdale’s design aesthetic, characterized by a calming neutral, color scheme. The launch video shows her in and around a contemporary home. The collection is priced mid-to higher end: Haven Dill Dining Chair Set of two Bauhaus-style dining chairs, crafted from teak wood are priced at about $945 while the Haven Sage Sofa in dark olive and burnt orange olive is priced at about $5,237 and was handcrafted in Mexico by artisans, HomeThreads said.
