Portraits – Designers Holger Gräf and Daniel Lantz

by christina

Profession: designers of mainly bags (totes, messenger and duffel bags) but also home accessories and furniture made out of felt.

Business: graeflantz.com

Why we like them: because they are so nice. Just kidding! Not that they aren’t nice but their bags (especially their bestseller tote) are perfectly versatile and come in all kinds of poppy colors that even hard-core neutral color palette fans won’t be able to resist. A few questions with the designers after the jump…

Where are you from? Holger: Munich/Germany; Daniel: Salt Lake City

How long have you lived here? Holger: 5 years, Daniel: 12 years

Where do you live in LA? West Hollywood

What do you like best about the neighborhood you live in? We live in Little Russia which is very diverse and lively. All the old ladies in the neighborhood love us and want to know when the kids are coming. And we can walk to Trader Joe’s.

Favorite thing to do in Los Angeles? Brunch with a view

What do you like most about your job? Working/designing together and the freedom of not having a boss.
