About Bevara Design House

Bevara Design House is founded on the premise of responsible, practical, and lasting design. Based in San Francisco, we find inspiration in a variety of locales; from the understated refinement of Scandinavia and Asia to the forward thinking and fresh ocean air of our hometown. We believe in adaptation and innovation, as well as things that function well and don’t destroy the environment. In keeping with those ideals, all of our pieces are made from sustainable materials and with the real world in mind.

Stacy Jorgensen is the co-founder and Creative Director
of Bevara Design House. A California native with a
compulsion for globetrotting, Stacy once found herself
inexplicably enrolled in a medical school in France. She
enjoyed the cafes and cobblestone streets, but soon
learned that there were more important things than learning
French words for obscure medical conditions. After
biking across the country (on a bicycle, not a Harley),
she got married and promptly embarked on a backpacking
adventure through Asia with her new husband Erik.
In Laos, they got involved with some socially progressive
women’s weaving cooperatives.

Erik Jorgensen is the other co-founder of Bevara Design
House. He remembers little about his years as a
stock trader and prefers to think of them as one long,
peculiar dream. These days, he spends his time traveling
and trying to impress his kids,which has turned out to be
much harder than expected. Erik considers immersing
oneself in other cultures a critical part of being a human
and has tried to prove it by learning two really difficult
languages (German and Japanese). He loves the SF
Giants and the Shins, and swears he will never attempt
driving in Ho Chi Minh City again.
