She’s now preparing to roll out Erria 2.0, a more sustainable, evolved version of the platform.Hannah Bigeleisen is a Brooklyn-based designer celebrated for her sculptural furniture and lighting. With a foundation in sculpture, she brings a playful yet refined approach to her work. Since launching her practice in 2020, her collections have been showcased at Brooklyn Designs, Collectible Design, and Sight Unseen Offsite Online, and featured in Domino, Architectural Digest, Elle Decor España, Vogue, Luxe, and Interior Design Magazine. Her latest collection will debut at Wanted Design in 2025.Joined by Dylan Williamson, Principal Designer at Âme Atendre, this episode dives into the creative brainwork behind design. Hannah and Alyssa share the moments of inspiration they find in the world around them—from the shifting light in nature to unexpected patterns in vintage rugs—and how these observations inform their work. They discuss the craftsmanship and intention behind small-batch production, offer insights on sustainability through quality, and reflect on how they stay creatively energized day to day. The result is a rich, accessible lesson in design, beauty, and mindful consumption—encouraging listeners to shop with both intention and imagination.Check out <a href='https://new.erria.xyz/'>Erria Design</a>.Follow <a href='https://www.instagram.com/h.bigeleisen/'>Hannah </a>and <a href='https://www.instagram.com/alyssa.gerasimoff/'>Alyssa </a>on Instagram.Follow <a href='https://www.instagram.com/erria_xyz/'>Erria </a>on Instagram.Explore <a href='https://hbigeleisen.com/?fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAAae3VQ2ubdHVfo8LV0fWlvQhWO0fRMKJgTclIw8ReCRfNJfZbDx7yOpKgfLPBA_aem_5Ucic_sG2A_bqwMZ2_XFAg'>Hannah’s website</a>. Read <a href='https://fuel-design.com/publishing/home-made-russia/'>Homemade Russia: Post Soviet Folk Artifacts</a>.<a href='https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/fewer-better-things-9781632869647/'>Read Fewer, Better Things: The Hidden Wisdom of Objects</a> by Glenn Adamson.Learn more about <a href='https://brucemaustudio.com/projects/an-incomplete-manifesto-for-growth/'>An Incomplete Manifesto for Growth</a> by Bruce Mau.Learn more about <a href='https://3pts.co/'>3pts</a>.Follow On the Table with Ashley on <a href='https://www.instagram.com/ameatendre/'>Instagram</a> and <a href='https://www.tiktok.com/@ameatendre'>TikTok</a>.On the Table with Ashley is presented by <a href='https://ameatendre.com/'>Âme Atendre</a>, a luxury home goods and tableware brand with a mission to connect people to all that matters.
