Italian Slow-life Values, Seoul inspired creativity and design ethos, NYC's grit and standard of excellence, LA's communal and nature-inspired romance.

Our inspiration isn’t found in isolation — it’s found in the rhythm of living.  Italian tanneries supply our leathers while Italian artisans craft our bags.  Seoul stokes our branding creativity, design ethos and commitment to communal heritage.  NYC fuels our grit, standard of excellence and permissions our amalgamation of cultures.  LA’s communal spirit shapes our people-first product approach. 

Food communion is not a mere metaphor for us; it’s the heartbeat of our soul. The shared table holds transformative power, a truth I witness daily as a founder-partner in two Michelin-rated restaurants in Los Angeles. Grade school cafeterias offered many of our first glimpses into the world’s complex kaleidoscope. No matter where or when, you find that in the art of gathering, life blooms.

Redefining perspective.  KIMIAS aims to create thoughtfully human creations, to aid in gathering, preparing, and sharing — meaningful living. LIFEFORMS are our daily essentials, FOODFORMS our food communion amplifiers. HUMANFORMS is our media portal and THE CAFFÉ CLUB is a new experiential food and beverage experience launching in Los Angeles. While we call the City of Angels home today, our studio is an reflection of inspirations shaped by real, lived experiences.

Play with your food.  Each journey and shared meal invites us to play—with flavors, traditions, and connections. Let go of rules, embrace unbridled joy and imagination, and explore both within and beyond yourself.  Savor shared moments, and lean on others to remind you that a shared life is a beautiful one.
