When it comes to hosting small brand events – think product launches, influencer gatherings, or creative workshops – choosing the right location is everything. While traditional venues have their place, there’s one type of space that’s becoming increasingly popular: the home.
Styled, characterful, and thoughtfully designed private residences are transforming into the go-to venues for intimate, high-impact brand moments. Here’s why:
Today’s audiences crave experiences that feel real and personal. A well-curated home provides a warm, relatable backdrop that connects with guests on a human level. Unlike blank studio spaces, homes offer personality – from cosy living rooms and sunlit kitchens to eclectic decor and real-life charm.
“It felt like we were stepping into the brand’s lifestyle, not just their product,” — a creator at a recent interior PR launch event.
Location homes are created with design and aesthetic in mind. Natural light, statement furniture, styled shelves, textured finishes – every corner becomes an Instagrammable moment. That means your event doesn’t just engage attendees; it also creates highly shareable content.
Whether you’re launching a product or inviting influencers to do what they do best, a home environment adds a layer of warmth and authenticity that audiences connect with.
Smaller brand events thrive on personal connection – something a home naturally supports. Whether it’s a table styling masterclass, a wellness workshop, or a hands-on brand activation, homes help guests feel comfortable and engaged. It’s a setting where conversations flow, and moments feel more meaningful.
Hosting your event in a uniquely styled home offers a blend of comfort and style that nurtures creativity and community and will leave a lasting impression on your guests. If you want to take your team out of the office for a day then a location home with Wi-Fi is more than just a pretty space, it’s an environment that sparks creativity.
Booking a private home is often more cost-effective than a commercial venue, especially for short bookings or pop-up brand activations. You get a professionally styled location without paying for the overheads of a traditional event space. Plus, as you’re booking via Styled Home Studios and dealing directly with the host, there are none of the big agency markups and fees.
