“Each strand of horsehair carries a narrative, connecting my artistic practice to the equestrian world and the natural elements surrounding it.”

“Each game creates a setting where memories are made, and people come together in the best celebration of humanity.”

“I don’t aim for symmetry or polished perfection—what matters to me is character. A tool mark, a small irregularity in the grain, a rough edge — they're not mistakes, they're part of the story.”

“We set out to craft something that feels both minimal and extraordinary — pieces that serve a purpose, yet hold their own as art within the home.”

“A contemporary glassware collection made for contemporary homes, answering the demand for approachable design that represents tactile and experiential perfection.”

“My work is imbalanced, fragmented, imperfect and bruised intentionally. I find extreme beauty in these flaws.”

"Where others use rigid plastics for consistency, we find ways to build structure around nature’s chaos. The goal is not to eliminate imperfection but to refine it—creating imperfect perfection.”

“Carving wood is so much more than the carving itself. It's the smell of the blanks. The feel in your hands touching it. The look of the material. Working with a piece of wood, chopped out from a log harvest from a 100 year old tree…it's like meditation.” 

“For us, craft is not about nostalgia, but about evolution. Our pieces are made for modern homes and modern lives, but they carry something older and deeper.”

“Spontaneity comes from allowing materials to play an authentic role and have a voice of their own in our studio practice. We think of our materials as another studio partner.”

“With a process that involves anywhere between 130 to 140 steps, these chautsu have virtually remained true to their original designs established by Kaikado’s founding generation.”

“The forms I create are minimal, open-ended, and sensory-driven. They’re designed not just to serve a function, but to create presence.”

“The variation of tones in the natural wool makes this collection completely different…as a result, each work represents and celebrates the idiosyncrasy of the material and the irregularities of handmade textiles.”

“Most of my creations are not drawn beforehand, but are born of a thoughtful idea, a spontaneous movement in which the hand is guided by the tool.”

“I observe and I imagine. Rorschach thought that seeing goes deeper than talking, and that how we see shows more about who we are.”

“Our practice and our finished pieces center around the concept of slow and considered living…we hope that the objects that we design and make evoke a sense of calm and silence, giving an opportunity to create rituals for reflection and well-being.”

“There is a uniqueness that comes with everything that is handmade, and so each object is special…I like to see traces of movement, marks that convey a soul, and the passing of time.”

“The feeling of warmth and soul in my work comes from a major respect for old and worn objects that are filled with the spirit of the maker.”

“I explore materiality, surface and form. I’m interested in our evolutionary responses to respective materials whether biological or artificial.”

"These are pieces made to be held, used and lived with, thoughtful objects that bring a sense of calm to everyday rituals.”

"Ceramics is one of the oldest art forms, and its legacy continues to endure to this day. What has changed over time is the creative expression we, as artists, bring to it—infusing this ancient medium with new ideas, forms, and meaning.”

“Whether at home, in the studio, or traveling, I’m always observing, absorbing, and reflecting. My fabrics embody these impressions; landscapes and light find their way into my weaves.”
