Evan Orensten

I’ve never understood why companies strive for the lowest common denominator instead of offering products and services that are well designed, easy to use and inspirational. I believe that looking back is as insightful and inspirational as is looking forward. I enjoy exploring the world through the way people shop, cook and eat. I am inspired by art, photography and furniture, and enjoy collecting them. I love New York City.
