When she's not visiting her husband Steph Curry at the Paris Olympics, chef and entrepreneur Ayesha Curry is dreaming up new ways to make family life beautiful. Much of this creativity filters through her lifestyle brand, Sweet July. Though the entire line is stunning, I'm especially in love with her tableware.
Sweet July's take on tablescaping is simple and stunning, combining the rustic energy of linen and matte ceramics with contemporary silhouettes. Ayesha Curry is at the center of the design, and her philosophy is just as striking as the products themselves. Homes & Gardens was lucky enough to interview Curry for Sweet July , and learn how she perfects summer entertaining.
'The most important part of a meal is not what’s on the table but the people sitting around the table,' Curry tells H&G . 'As long as you’re gathering people together, that’s a win in my book. I consider the kitchen our gathering place.
It’s a place where we share a meal and talk about our day. Many of my happiest memories throughout my life have been spent with family and friends around the kitchen table.' Suddenly, summer tablescaping doesn't seem so difficult.
She continues, 'So my tips, along that theme, are to keep it simple. Avoid any plateware and linens too fussy or delicate that people can’t be comfortable, and any centerpieces too tall for people to see each other.' Like the Sweet July dishware, Curry's dining table philosophy centers on balancing function with aesthetics.
