The Story
Helgerson's Del Playa is composed of turned wood stems and ceramic shades that recall her childhood on the beaches of Santa Barbara. The materials in this line feel very much of that time and place – the handcrafted aesthetic of California in the 70s. ///Description
Jessica Helgerson grew up with one foot in Southern California and the other in France. With a French mother and an American father, summers in France, and school years in Santa Barbara, she developed a love for both countries, cultures, with both have had a profound impact on her design work. She briefly worked in an architecture firm after school, but very early in her career felt that there wasn’t an office doing quite the kind of work she wanted to do, so in 2000 she opened her eponymous design studio.
