Bernhardt Designer in Residence Charity Auction

After the resounding success of the inaugural Bernhardt + Elle Decor Designer in Residence program, featuring A-List Designer Nick Olsen, we turn our focus from creativity to philanthropy with the Design for a Difference: Designer in Residence Charity Auction.

At the October Furniture Market in High Point, Nick Olsen showcased his cutting-edge take on traditional design and his fearless use of color to transform a part of the Bernhardt showroom. Olsen paired the classic forms of Bernhardt seating with the wild motifs of Johnson Hartig's new collection for Schumacher.

Olsen’s creative vision is captured in 17 distinct pieces now available to design enthusiasts to bid on while supporting a charitable organization of the designer’s choosing - God’s Love We Deliver.

All proceeds from this auction go directly to God’s Love We Deliver to support their mission to improve the health and well-being of all people too sick to shop or cook for themselves. God’s Love is a non-sectarian organization and their services are provided free to clients and full of love.

We encourage you to share this auction with your networks to celebrate the art of interior design and its ability to make a difference in our communities.
