About

Jake Coan (b. 1991, Ghent, NY) grew up in the Hudson Valley, the son of an architect and a potter. After studying Studio Art at Bard College and teaching engineering at the Brooklyn Robot Foundry, he has since channeled his curiosity for luminescence, vibration, and shape into designing one-of- a-kind art and light fixtures in his whimsical Massachusetts studio. Coan’s influences include Issey Miyake, Isamu Noguchi, and Ingo Maurer, but more importantly: plants, rocks, and light. His works can be found in homes across the world, and have been featured in publications such as Architectural Digest, Domino Magazine, and New York Magazine.
