CHILDREN’S FURNITURE COLLECTION


A selection from a collection of five children’s furniture pieces called “The Grass is Greener Here,” featured in Gowanus Open Studios 2019.

Having been raised by a teacher, child development has always been close to home and design challenge for me. As the collection’s title suggests, it is important that children have the opportunity to cherish and orient their own worlds. 


These pieces are a mix of function and conceptual, which were designed to help reconquer children’s natural curiosity and play. The shapes and colors are biomorphic and bold, suggesting character into their rooms. Children are encouraged to flip the furniture piece upside down or however they would like to either make a fort or abode.

*The Cloud, a one-legged balancing stool, is a special feature inspired by a vintage children’s
disciplinary stool found in a friend’s garage.
