Earnest Studio is a design practice founded by American-born designer Rachel Griffin, based in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Griffin studied industrial design at Design Academy Eindhoven, later establishing her studio to explore the relationship between traditional craft and industrial production. Her work focuses on furniture and objects, often developed through research into materials, fabrication techniques, and modular systems. Earnest Studio projects emphasize clarity of construction and visible assembly, reflecting an interest in how objects are made. Griffin has collaborated with international manufacturers and presented work at major design events, including Milan Design Week. Her practice bridges conceptual development and production, combining functional design with a research-driven approach to material and process.
