Come With Me to Bali

Sponsor the Designer, Empower the Makers

 

Sponsor the Designer, Empower the Makers

I'm setting out on a once-in-a-lifetime journey to Bali — to attend a designer's retreat, source natural materials, and build relationships with traditional artisans and furniture makers. I'm inviting a small circle of supporters to help fund this journey and receive exclusive, intimate glimpses of what unfolds.

Why I’m going

This trip is not a vacation — it's a pilgrimage of design, a deep dive into the craft, materials, and stories that shape my work.

In Bali, I’ll:

  • Visit artisan collectives and furniture workshops

  • Source ethical, handmade textiles and materials

  • Develop the foundation for a new collection

  • Attend a designer's retreat focused on slow design and cultural exchange

Your sponsorship helps me cover travel and sourcing costs and supports ethical, sustainable design from the ground up.

 

What you Receive

As a sponsor, you’re more than a donor—you’re part of the creative circle. Here’s what you’ll receive:

$25 – Color Circle

  • Your name listed on the Bali Journey page as a supporter

  • Travel photo postcard from Bali

$100 – Artisan Ally

  • All of the above

  • Exclusive swatch sample from sourced materials

  • First access to the Bali-inspired collection

$250 – Studio Muse

  • All of the above

  • Private design preview with voice memo walk-through

  • Early access shopping invite

$500+ – Patron of the Journey

  • All of the above

  • Personalized thank-you gift sourced in Bali

  • 30-minute design consult via Zoom

Why It Matters

This is about more than one artist. It’s about creating a bridge between my world and theirs, between the people who make by hand and the people who value intentional living.

If you’ve ever loved a piece I’ve made, this is your chance to help shape the next chapter.
