WHAT IS ATELIER?
Atelier is a term which best describes the spirit and intellect behind Atelier Design. It is a term familiar to Europeans, meaning DESIGNER STUDIO / WORKSHOP.


MISSION STATEMENT
Griffith Atelier is a design company established in 2002 by designer Robert Griffith and manufacturing partner Kent Harris.

Since its founding, Robert and Kent have worked closely as a team to develop a collection of home furnishings which continue to expand on a daily basis.

Our goal is to place designs which are analyzed and developed for manufacture with companies which can best bring these products to the consumer.

In this respect, the web site serves as design portfolio which demonstrates our creative spirit, style, and entrepreneurship.

WE ARE NOT MANUFACTURERS. We will, however, consider any inquiry to produce a product for purchase. We produce (on occasion) small editions of designs during the product development process. This process sometimes produces a limited inventory of products which may be available for sale.

If you are inquiring on a product for purchase please call during business hours. We will, at that time, inform you if there is an inventory available and will provide a quote on pricing.


ROBERT GRIFFITH
About the Designer
With thirty years of experience as a designer and craftsman, Robert Griffith has distinguished himself with an ever expanding tableau. Atelier designs continue to be recognized internationally through special exhibitions and collections.

We believe this recognition establishes a pedigree for the Atelier name. In a published essay on Robert Griffith

...Here we can very palpably experience a celebration of the “Intelligence of the hand.”
European Design Critic James Evens

ARCHITECTS AND INTERIOR DESIGNERS
If you would like to enter into a collaboration on a project (contract or residential) based on products and artowrk in this portfolio please let us know.

It is quite possible, depending on available budget considerations, size, and scope of project that we may custom design for clients or find a producer of our designs for a specific project.


GALLERY INQUIRIES
We are providing a glimpse of artwork by Robert Griffith. These works represent work created on commission or shown in museums and galleries over the past thirty years.

It is out of this work that the Home Furnishings Collection emerged beginning in 1996.
