Seth Rogen has done it again. He and his weed company Houseplant are teaming up with Airbnb ABNB to offer three one night stays in a house filled with Rogen's very own hand-made pottery and other extraordinary household treasures.
Fast Company reported that Airbnb got in touch with it and things just happened from there. Airbnb rented Rogen's house, not his office, to create an Airbnb experience that felt curated by Houseplant. Rogen helped decorate.
My own personal pottery is in there, my actual speakers from my office are hooked up to the record player, and I think some of my record collection is also in the house, he said.
Rogen said that they were part of the experience. There will be pottery wheels there, so I can do pottery with them. A lot of people ask me to do pottery with them or teach them a bit about pottery, so it is something I m happy to offer. I assume that people will want to smoke weed with me, and that is something I am happy to do. Rogen's favorite ceramic subject these days is ashtrays.
In a Zoom interview with Vogue in the fall, Rogen said that my journey with pottery and houseplant was kind of parallel in a very nice way. It seemed like no one had made a new ashtray in the last 30 years. He said that his search for nice ashtrays compelled him to become a serious potter.
I couldn't be happier because the brand was born out of what I was already doing. Rogen worked on clay in his home pottery studio during the Pandemic. Learning and experimenting is what having a kiln is like. You can book online for the available nights on Airbnb's site and book online for two guests at the discounted price of $42 for US residents. Houseplant stated that while this is a cannabis-friendly experience, no actual products will be provided, so it is strictly BYOWeed.
