Vincent and Jessie Leman, designing together and married for 6 years We both love integrating the precision of digital tools with wood. When we need a break from all that precision and technology, Vince likes to sketch with pen and ink and I like to sew or crochet stuff for our home. We were both super creative kids… we’ve got lots of amusing grade school art class projects that can attest to that! We love sushi, fresh garden veggies, a good grass fed beef burger, and have a joint inexplicable weakness for cocoa krispies. We’d love to open a brick and mortar shop some day… selling choice handmade goods. I’m a huge fan of Charley Harper. We are both in love with Charles and Ray Eames’ work. We are always inspired by other couples who work together. -One year from now…. We’d love to own a home and be renovating that, with veggies and flowers in the garden.
Valparaiso, Indiana (a cozy town close to Chicago and Lake Michigan beaches)
No kids or pets yet, but we’d love to have both some day.
We have the same birthday! It’s always an extraordinary day.
-Were you creative growing up/what did you enjoy doing?

Iron & Wine, Radiohead, Sufjan Stevens, Neko Case, Josh Ritter
-Is there anything you’d like to try your hand at doing?
