Artisan Modern is about the opportunity for meaningful materialism.
The Objectography is a collection of stories about objects – things you’ve kept, things you miss, your relationships with artisans, and quests for specific objects. Sharing these stories inspires new relations to ownership and aquisition.
The directory of Ateliers is an open directory of Artisans, and can be used to search for things you need and want to acquire.
Our Magazine introduces a modern approach to quality work, transactions and objects, and to artisans who are making beautiful food and things with pleasure and ethics.
We offer occasional Numbered Editions which superlatively express the qualities we nurture.
Welcome.
