About TOKEN

A NEW AMERICAN FURNITURE DESIGN STUDIO

Token draws on the legacy of American modernism, blending art, craft, and sophisticated technology to create designs that feel both timeless and progressive. With technical precision and a reverence for materiality, each piece reimagines classical forms through a contemporary lens.

Our work has been featured in The New York Times, Elle Decor, Luxe, Vogue, Interior Design, along with other national and international publications.
