Night Out

DESIGN FOR THE PPL, MAY 2025

Our most recent Vested Night Out was one for the books. Hosted by the incredibly talented Erin Haskell Gourde—Founder and Principal Designer of Design for the PPL—this gathering took place inside her stunning showroom and warehouse space, a location as beautifully curated as the conversations that unfolded within it.

The evening offered everything our community has come to love: meaningful small group discussions, delicious drinks and bites, and special surprises for every guest. Attendees mingled among thoughtfully designed vignettes, took home new connections, and enjoyed hands-on experiences like permanent jewelry from Simple Wildflower and keepsake photos from Electric Photoland.

Design for the PPL, recently featured in Architectural Digest, Trending Northwest, and Designers Today, proved to be the perfect backdrop for a night that centered community, creativity, and collaboration. Erin’s studio isn’t just a design destination—it’s a living example of how soul, fashion, and interiors can come together to tell powerful stories.

As with all Vested events, our goal was to create space for real connection—not just business cards and pitches, but shared experiences, deep conversations, and authentic support. Judging by the energy in the room, this night did exactly that.

Thank you to everyone who joined us. We hope you left feeling seen, supported, and full of inspiration.
