You probably know Gwyneth Paltrow’s goop for its sunscreen and bone broth, but its foray into interior design is just as iconic. Crate & Barrel’s sister store CB2 teamed up with the lifestyle brand to create a stunning furniture line, launching today, and they’re once again pushing the limits of luxury design—with a European twist.
Following the pair’s first collaboration that dropped in 2018, the new CB2 x goop collection has a lot to love. Fresh off the rise of the Paris Grandma aesthetic and Amalficore trends, it couldn’t have come at a better time: Parisian style influences are apparent, with the items taking plenty of notes from high-quality French pieces and mid-century modern Italian designs.
You’ll find this in the details, with French-inspired ceramics, marble furniture legs, and contrasts that create striking silhouettes. From the oval oak and unlacquered brass dining table to the modular sectional sofas, the furnishings can help you achieve a timeless aesthetic.

“This collection is a testament to the shared vision of CB2 and goop,” said CB2 president Ryan Turf in a press release. “We wanted the section iteration of our collaboration to showcase each brand’s design evolution, using unexpected material combinations to create timeless designs that are made to last. As a result, we created an assortment that feels collected and will age beautifully over time.”
It’s a challenge to decide on the favorite styles found in the line, from the elegance of the curved chairs to the mixing of materials like boucle, shearling, or faux mohair. Or perhaps it’s the cream Mylene sofa with navy welting that looks like it was pulled straight out of a high-end apartment in Paris.
There’s even a piece inspired by a furniture item in Gwyneth Paltrow’s very own home: the Claude Bar. With oak doors, a marble top, plenty of storage on the inside, and thoughtful details on the outside—like the sturdy brass base and matching pulls—this mixed-material piece will make you rethink modern bar carts.

The collection also has a statement chandelier inspired by jewelry from goop’s label. Milk glass globes act as pendants, and just like goop’s necklaces, the length of the chandelier itself is adjustable, so you can arrange it exactly to fit your space. It’s thoughtful details like these that demonstrate the collection’s dedication to practicality, versatility, and craftsmanship on top of its stylish design.

“These are heirloom pieces to treasure, inspired by modern Parisian apartments and mid-century Italian modernist furniture,” Paltrow said in a press release. “We leaned into complex materiality—plaster, shearling, lacquer—for a collection that is as elegant and grown up as it is daring.”
There’s a lot more to explore in the CB2 x goop collection, with 25 unique furniture pieces that are sure to inspire a total home makeover. You can now find them available to shop at all CB2 locations and on cb2.com.
