​Stephen Kenn is a Los Angeles–based furniture designer renowned for his minimalist, industrial aesthetic and commitment to craftsmanship. His work often incorporates repurposed materials, such as vintage military canvas and oxidized metals, resulting in pieces that are both functional and rich in narrative. Stephen Kenn's designs are characterized by exposed steel frames, leather straps, and durable fabrics, reflecting a philosophy that values simplicity, utility, and storytelling

At Stephen Kenn, I created precise CAD models and furniture prototypes, contributing directly to the design and development process. I performed hands-on upholstery work—including stuffing and stapling—and assembled furniture pieces. Additionally, I coordinated packaging and shipping operations, ensuring each product met high standards of quality and craftsmanship.

Steve and Beks of Stephen Kenn were the first to take a chance on me, offering me my first internship and opening the door to my design career. Their continued support and friendship have meant the world to me, and I’m deeply grateful to have learned from such kind, genuine people. The lessons I took from my time with them continue to shape both my work and my life.
