ASHANTI, studio is a SMALL-SCALE DESIGN STUDIO.
Our practice is informed by the importance of craftsmanship, quality, and sustainability. Every item is intently designed and human-made.
OUR PRACTICE
we explore freely and honestly, using observation instead of judgment.
we are diligent in our belief of ourselves, even in unfavorable circumstances and with unknown variables.
we are always open to new ideas, new perspectives, and new ways of doing things, even if it means we have to do away with closely held beliefs that no longer serve us — and painstakingly build new habits.
we create from a place of passion and curiosity, not for recognition or reward.
play is an integral part of our learning process, and we encourage everyone, of all ages, to practice this form of meditation.
we get out of our comfort zone by taking one small step in a new direction each day.
we believe what’s best for the collective is what’s best for the individual.
imperfections indicate life. handmade objects communicate that being human is perfectly ok.
most of all, we believe everyone is deserving of love, respect, and the opportunity for rehabilitation.
