Kevin O’Brien Studio
Kevin O’Brien Studio
Kevin O'Brien Studio was founded in a barn in 1990. Since then the company has set out to change the world, but only in a tiny way. Their goal has always been to make things a little better for everyone who comes into contact with their products, their people, and their conduct. And after 15 years Kevin O'Brien can say that his products are beautiful, his people are great, and his practices over those years still allow him to sleep well at night. So, on balance he thinks they are ahead.

The company now sells pillows, bedding, stuffed animals, scarves, throws and more to over 200 stores worldwide. They even have their own collection with Capel Rugs and have expanded into newer realms of textiles, such as digital printing. “The way I remember it,” says Kevin O’Brien, “I had to walk miles through the snow every day just to get to my studio in an old barn, then chop firewood for an hour, before beginning to paint my fabrics. One day a friend showed some of my work to a buyer at Barney’s, and the sun came out and has been shining ever since.”
