FROM THE AGE OF FIVE, RACHEL FELT CONNECTED TO DESIGN. SHE GREW UP IN A SMALL TOWN OUTSIDE OF VANCOUVER, BC AND LATER MOVED TO MONTREAL QC TO PURSUE HER FASHION CAREER WHERE SHE ACQUIRED THE CRAFTSMANSHIP AND TECHNICAL KNOWLEDGE NEEDED TO BRING HER VISION TO LIFE.

THE BIRTH OF RACHEL SUDBURY BEGAN SHORTLY AFTER. RACHEL STRIVES TO DESIGN QUIRKY ARTISANAL PIECES THAT DON’T HARM THE PLANET. THIS COMMITMENT MEANS MANY OF HER PIECES ARE ONE-OF-A-KIND.  THROUGH HER CHALLENGES GROWING UP WITH DYSLEXIA AND ADHD, MANY OF HER CONCEPTS ARE INSPIRED FROM QUESTIONING AND BREAKING SOCIAL NORMS WITH A FUNCTIONAL AND IRONICALLY COMEDIC APPROACH THAT HIGHLIGHTS AND CELEBRATES IMPERFECTION.
