Baldwin® Hardware, a Leading Brand of the Hardware & Home Improvement Division of Spectrum Brands, Officially Launches Hollywood Hills by Erinn V.


Stunning New Collection Turns Heads at 17th Annual Architectural Digest Design Show in NYC

NEW YORK, March 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Baldwin® Hardware, a leading brand of the Hardware and Home Improvement (HHI) division of Spectrum Brands, Inc. (NYSE:SPB), today announced the official launch of Hollywood Hills by Erinn V., a stunning new hardware collection designed by Celebrity Designer Erinn Valencich. The striking new products will be on display at the 2018 Architectural Digest Design Show booth number 293. Not only will attendees have the chance to see the entire collection, but they also will have the opportunity to win a gorgeous Hollywood Hills handleset for their own home.

“Hollywood Hills by Erinn V. strikes the perfect balance between chic, traditional elegance and clean modernism,” said PJ Rosch, senior brand manager for Baldwin Hardware. “Our team worked in concert with Erinn to create a striking collection that easily makes a statement without being overly fussy.”

Working with Baldwin’s industrial design team, Valencich developed a collection that is uniquely Baldwin, with unmatched quality and craftsmanship and also undeniably “Erinn V.” with a California-cool vibe. Valencich loves clean, industrial lines and drew inspiration for Hollywood Hills from the linear, stacked geometry found in nautical pieces.

“I really wanted to create a collection that would work beautifully with both traditional and modern designs. In my mind, it needed to include statement-making pieces that would leave a lasting first impression,” said Valenchich. “The collaboration with Baldwin’s design team has been energized and inspired, and I’m thrilled we succeeded in creating this collection, which is perfectly balanced and definitely makes a design statement throughout a home.” 

With a tall 20-inch back plate, Hollywood Hills creates immediate interest as a statement piece. The collection has a clean, contemporary look that works well across many design aesthetics. It boasts two tubular handlesets; two mortise entrance sets, three knobs, three rosettes, one deadbolt and a variety of cabinet and appliance pulls, and one new cabinet knob. It is available in 18 finishes. Erinn’s personal favorites are polished chrome (260) and vintage brass (033).
