Interview: Embracing Nature and Novel Design on The Assemblist
"Amanda Hunt's studio is a treasure trove of artistry. The Marin-based metalsmith has built her eponymous jewelry design practice by placing storytelling at the forefront of her process. This motivation derives from Amanda's enduring exploration of the arts (before her design endeavors, Amanda spent many years as a dancer and teacher).Today, Amanda's work is an ode to her appreciation for stories and the power they yield on both a creative and conscious level. The designer's commitment to ethical design adds a nuanced layer to the brand's storytelling efforts, and we were fortunate to witness this process unfold in person. And much like her love and appreciation for nature, Amanda herself proved to be a breath of fresh air as we got to know her a bit better during our recent meeting.Meet Amanda in today's studio visit and find out how she learned to break through the noise of a crowded category like jewelry, and how she's navigated the delicate balance between intuition and inspiration."
