Kristen Austin's Company Details
Founded in 2006, our studio's signature aesthetic was born with the release of our very first product: the Branching Bubble chandelier, a virtually limitless custom configuration that combines the idiosyncratic natural grace of blown glass with rational, machined components. Since then, we have explored the visual tension between organic and industrial forms in a number of disciplines, introducing boundary-challenging designs from an innovative palette of materials.We design, prototype and build in-house, working with a close circle of local manufacturers to develop and produce custom parts. With more than 20 employees between the NoHo neighborhood of Manhattan and our outpost in Los Angeles, the studio is a creative laboratory with an unusual level of collaboration. Forms and ideas evolve through 1:1 model making and constant testing. Artists, craftspeople and production staff are encouraged to experiment and dream, transcending traditional boundaries and hierarchies. We feel that an energized, interdisciplinary approach is crucial to innovative design and extraordinary execution, as evident in every object we produce.
