R+D

R+D is centered around digital fabrication using sustainable resources. Our primary brand, Kitsch, Please, is bold, colorful, and original 3D printed jewelry. Hyggelig Ever After, our second line, is laser cut ornaments and home goods made from bamboo. Featuring local landmarks and icons, they offer a cozy addition to any home and remind you of the places that have a hold on your heart.

From the outside, R+D is about having fun: We use a lot of puns in our product names and social media posts. We want people to be able to find something that is affordable and unique to give as a gift to brighten someone’s day, add an accessory that makes them feel unstoppable, or be able to inspire someone to think differently about sustainability and manufacturing.

Behind the scenes, we’re quite serious about our commitments: to getting the details right, to the environment, and to our community. We take time to carefully design and craft our products that make for pieces people want to wear and use forever. We opt for raw materials that are better for the environment and our customers. And we firmly believe in community over competition (we’re apart of multiple local collectives and membership groups and have previously served on the board of one of them).
