Domestic Science: Kept, a New Utilitarian Line from Design Star Kara Mann

November 15, 2019

If you’re familiar with the work of Chicago/NY designer Kara Mann, you know she has a distinct Goth approach to interiors. She works in a palette of black and white, and now, she’s taken it a step further and launched Kept, a line of utilitarian household goods (her mantra: “We make things you need into things you love”). We’re on board.

Here’s a look:
