FRAMINGHAM, Mass.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Staples makes chic, fun and functional workspaces happen with new
products and designs for Style at Staples, which features the exclusive
Cynthia Rowley Collection and unique, home and office items from
Paperchase. New from Cynthia Rowley are wallpaper, backpacks, tote bags,
lunch bags, phone wristlets, laptop sleeves, flash drives, planners,
phone cases and reading glasses. The Style at Staples collections will
be available just in time for the holiday gift-giving season beginning
November 3 at Staples stores and Staples.com.

“The unique Cynthia Rowley and Paperchase collections help our busy
customers stay organized while showcasing their style throughout their
workspaces,” said Alison Corcoran, senior vice president of North
American stores and online marketing, Staples. “The Style at Staples
collection seamlessly merges great design and function with
sophisticated and fun products that are perfect for the home office or
office during this holiday gift giving season.”

Exclusive to Staples, the latest Cynthia Rowley Collection features her
new designs in eye-catching bold colors and patterns on everything from
wallpaper, reading glasses, notebooks, desktop organizers, phone cases
to storage boxes, tech cases, backpacks and more.

Cynthia Rowley explained, “I’ve got a theory: if you love your
workspace, you’ll love your work a little more. A unique collection of
office essentials in bold, vibrant hues and lush, elegant patterns. To
inspire you. To delight you. And to give your day just a little more
joy.”

In addition, Staples will offer a new unique collection with original
designs from leading London stationary brand, Paperchase. Their in-house
design teams have used their distinct talents to create three new lines.

All tastes are covered with the new Paperchase lines. For those looking
for something dramatic there is the intense floral prints of the Dark
Romance collection, while monochrome prints peppered with colorful
exotic birds give the Paradiso collection a sophisticated edge. This
contrasts with the Get Organized line and its black and white geometric
print offset with fresh green accents.
