what is RAVEN VANGUARD?
Some have called Raven Vanguard a distinctively mysterious force enlightening the universe. While that may be true, this subject is best left for a different day because of its incomprehensible nature.
We are an interior design studio, undeniably, but that doesn’t tell you anything about who or what we are as creators or as a business.
Raven Vanguard is so much more than the literal meaning and totality of our symbolic and mysterious brand name; we are an ideology, an ethos, a matter of perception and perspective, a state of mind, a dynamic way of thinking and living, and a purposeful way of seeing and doing things differently. We are equal parts philosophy, artistic vision, passion, intuition, creative impulse, pure imagination, divine and otherworldly inspiration, contrariness, and conscientious and meticulous process.
Yet, we are considerably more than that; additionally, we have forged a temporal, material, and tangible earthly existence. Raven Vanguard is also the all-inclusive and ever-evolving union and alchemy at play between Raven Vanguard Design Studio and Raven Vanguard House.
So, what then is Raven Vanguard Design Studio?
We are artistic conjurers, aesthetic and visual storytellers, curators of beauty, sensuality, and wonder, and brand-enrichment narrators. We help you imagine what could be. We are an intensely personal and approachable concept and detail-driven, high-art interior design studio. We believe in the significance of empathetic connection and incorporate the emerging disciplines of neuroaesthetics, neuroarts, and biophilic principles into our creative process and overall holistic approach to design. Working together with our discerning clientele to make sure that their spaces are unquestionably unique and personalized and enhance their well-being, we look to explore the essence of beauty, intimacy, emotion, timelessness, atmosphere, comfort, artistry, craft, and environmental sustainability through the juxtaposition of composition, aesthetics, color and chromatic wizardry, scale, tactility, texture, pattern, form, shape, layering, and the exploration of darkness, shadow, and light to create livable, distinctive, multisensory, immersive, and experiential interiors. We are procurers and purveyors of the finest bespoke and heirloom quality furnishings, fabrics, textiles, wall coverings, fixtures, lighting, objects, artwork, antiques, and audio equipment.
Complementing our interior design services, Raven Vanguard Design Studio is a consultant to the luxury and design-focused hospitality industries, an event and holiday stylist, and a freelance set design consultant to the television and film industry. We are a forward-thinking design firm unlike any other, standing proudly in opposition to the wasteful, unsustainable, and irresponsible practices plaguing and firmly entrenched in the design industry.
And, what then is Raven Vanguard House?
Raven Vanguard House is the human, brick-and-mortar, visual, tactile, perceptible, sense-awakening, visionary, and evolutionary manifestation of the Raven Vanguard brand philosophy. It is an exceptional place, a kaleidoscopic expression of incomparable creativity, a continually evolving emporium of carnal and otherworldly pleasures and delights. Raven Vanguard House is also the sacred seat of consciousness for the studio and workroom of Raven Vanguard Design Studio and the creative laboratory where we encourage our collective imagination to run amok and let it all hang out. In addition, it is home to one of the world’s most utterly transformative and mind-blowing multisensory experiences, which takes place in the sanctuary of our one-of-a-kind Music Room.
Raven Vanguard House is a pre-Civil War, Second French Empire architectural wonder and an interiors showroom for the exhibition and retail sale of luxury furnishings, artwork, materials, and décor. Raven Vanguard House is also the epitome of the modern-day Salon, an eclectic and intimate event space for social, culinary, literary, and music-related gatherings. This place we proudly call home is also a rentable location for the film and television industry. Raven Vanguard House invites you to visit, explore, linger, and indulge your senses in our remarkably singular place where every subtle detail matters, arousing curiosity and wonder. If you enter here with an open mind, we promise you a peek behind our proverbial curtain with a glimpse into the shadowy, nebulous beyond and that you will leave here positively inspired with a newfound love of Benedictine black, double-barreled jewel tones, velvet, lace, and leather.
