Heartwork is a company founded by CEO Karen John, a furniture designer who trained in Milan and who holds a masters in Manufacturing Engineering from Stanford. Their inventory is centered around office storage solutions, but one could easily integrate the pieces—which all come in candy-colored hues, into a residential space.

Evelyn Ackerman created this hand-woven, wool wall hanging in 1962. Evelyn, who died in 2012, and her husband, Jerome, were major figures in the post-war design scene in California. They both contributed a great deal to the creative community of their time, and are hugely important figures in the history of American modern design. A collection of 40 of her cloisonne enamels are in the permanent collection of the Smithsonian.

This is an early example of the Time-Life stool created by Charles and Ray Eames for the Time-Life lobby in New York, circa 1960. It should be noted that this piece, made of lathe-turned walnut, was largely Ray's conception. She was reportedly inspired by Brancusi and African chairs.

The intricate system of connection in Ruth Asawa's crocheted wire sculptures was inspired by the handiwork of Mexican basket weavers. Asawa, who died in 2013, was the daughter of Japanese immigrants. She attended the hugely influential art school, Black Mountain College, where she studied under Josef Albers, Buckminster Fuller, Franz Kline, and others. She was the mother of five and is an under-appreciated icon of modern design. Best place to see her work in SF is the base of the tower at the de Young museum--there's an assemblage of 15.
