MONTCLAIR, NEW JERSEY,
JOHANNA HOWARD
As a young girl in Stockholm, Sweden, Johanna sat in her mother’s atelier as she meticulously crafted dresses by hand. She learned to appreciate the quality and versatility that only hand work can achieve, and the clean elegance of Scandinavian design.
Johanna took these lessons with her to Los Angeles and New York where she became a successful Design Director, working for such companies as BCBG, Express and Gap – and her accessible designs were worn by women all over the world.
Now, Johanna has turned her eye to designing for the home. Through her travels, she has discovered incredibly talented artisans and collaborates with them to elevate their traditional craftsmanship with refined style. From master dyers in the highlands of Peru to weaving families in Portugal, she sees the possibilities of their traditional techniques and imagines them into her authentically uncommon products. The result is a magical marriage of cultures and creativity that connects the world to your home.
Johanna owns the company together with her husband Vate and we live and work in Montclair NJ.
