Founded in 2007, Kalon produces work with a strong focus on elemental forms, natural materials and versatility. The studio prides itself on an intense focus on materiality, which is at the forefront of each of their designs, as is an obsession with integrity. The emotive quality of everyday objects, the impact of everyday spaces, and the interplay between natural materials, high-tech precision manufacturing and modern form are all central to Kalon’s practice.
Since the beginning, Kalon has held a deep commitment to sustainable, US-based production, and each piece is made by a small team of highly skilled craftspeople using timber sourced from local, sustainably managed forests and the highest quality sustainable finishes and materials. Pieces are designed with flexibility of use, durability, and timeless appeal in mind. Kalon’s intent is to create pieces that will live many lives, adapting to every person’s ever- changing needs and tastes. In every object we create, we hope to imbue in them a material and spiritual integrity — one that invites richer resonance and narrative from the very beginning.
