Joanna Frank Design Shop Ltd.

          Joanna Frank Design Shop has the best stuff! Her highly curated selections explore the world of collectible design, with a particular focus on the extraordinary work of Scandinavian women designers and makers, especially those working during the Winter War and WWII, when women moved to the forefront of the design industry.

Joanna began her career decorating sets for major motion pictures, where she learned the power of individual objects and how they can tell a story within an interior. After more than 15 years designing for private clients, she opened Joanna Frank Design Shop as a place to share her eclectic eye and deep knowledge of historic and contemporary design.

Here you'll find some of the most sought-after Finnish lighting, vintage upholstery wrapped in wild textiles, artist collaborations, beautifully strange objects, and some of the coolest ashtrays ever made. Every piece is chosen for its design, history, and ability to bring a little more personality to an interior.
