Based in Brooklyn, New York, The Winsome Brave is a multi-disciplinary design studio that has garnered some much-deserved attention due to its stunning hardware line. What might appear to be more jewelry than tools, this studio has created a line that focuses as much on form as it does on function. From the Equilateral Nails made out of solid bronze and boasting a triangular head to the Nomadic Weapon, which could be considered as stone-and-cord wall art, The Winsome Brave creates beautiful objects people will be loathed to use.
The Winsome Brave was founded by Valerie Gnaedig and Annie Lenon. In addition to these utilitarian tools and objects, this creative duo will be working on a slew of graphic projects to capitalize on Gnaedig's motion design background and Lenon's packaging experience.
