Founded in 1988 by Ted Boerner and Frank Pontes, we are a San Francisco based design studio offering innovative and original furnishings.  Encompassing a full range of made-to-order products, this collection is on view in design showrooms nationwide.

 

We encourage an appreciation for everyday objects – not only for their thoughtful design, but for what they are made of, for those who make them, and for what they come to symbolize in our lives.

 

We believe design conjures a powerful sense of place. Through conscious choices and responsible relationships with proud and talented craftspeople, we aim to nourish this connection for those who choose our designs.

 

Our approach is straightforward, exploring familiar forms using only essential details.  In search of simplicity, we balance the idiosyncracies of nature with the clean rhythms of modernism.
