Shelly Klein has run k studio in its various forms for ten years working
as a consultant for the contract furniture industry with a range of clients
including Herman Miller. Also an accomplished painter, she uses
overlapping imagery in both her paintings and textile work. The two
mediums feed one another and create a dialog that our clients continue
to find fresh and exciting.

management and manufacturing background. She manages the nuts
and bolts of the operation with skill and ease and is a collaborative
partner in all design decisions. She also manages research and
sourcing.
The combination of their respective areas of expertise have resulted
in a natural mother/ daughter collaboration exploring a shared interest
in combining good design with sustainable materials, business acuity,
and social responsibility.
