"At Joss & Main, we always seek to inspire," says Mitra Morgan, Chief Curator. "And we love to be inspired by others; whether it's a classically trained designer or someone naturally gifted with a unique sense of style."

The sales events, which last for only 72 hours, showcase the selected curator's aesthetic talent and vision, and may also feature the curator's own wares. The first Curator's Collection starts Tuesday, August 9th, with Elements of Style's Erin Gates' Nantucket-inspired event, which includes pillows, lamps, and other accent pieces in crisp blues and sandy whites, in addition to other coastal elements. "I had a great time curating for Joss & Main!" says Gates. "I had a vision of this perfect summer place and it was great to have the opportunity to bring it to life not just for myself, but for Joss & Main members, as well."

Members can expect a new Curator's Collection every Tuesday, with future events by John and Sherry Petersik of Young House Love, Caitlin Wilson of Caitlin Wilson Interior Design, Bryn Dunn of Bryn Alexandra, and Franki Durbin of Life in a Venti Cup slated for the coming months.

"Our eyes are always open to fresh ideas," says Morgan. "We hope that by sharing the distinct influences and tastes of a variety of designers with our members, we will be able to do more than just provide great deals on home decor, but also serve as a resource for those looking  for inspiration to launch a new design project or simply to add that finishing touch to their home."

To become a member, shoppers can register at www.jossandmain.com, where they will then be given access to daily sales on home goods at up to 70 percent off retail. Joss & Main is an offshoot of leading online home goods retailer CSN Stores, which recently received an investment of $165 million and will be rebranding as Wayfair later this year.
