Kate Albrecht and Joey Zehr established their careers in Los Angeles, and jumped on the YouTube wave just as vlogging started to take off. Don’t think that the design duo stopped at making videos alone — having cultivated a reputation for their wide-reaching designs and fresh ideas, Albrecht and Zehr launched a home line inspired by their work, and their new spring collection is icing on the cake. During our chat, the Mr. Kate creative minds dished about the new spring line and how it came to be.
“We started with beds and sofas and chairs, so all soft pieces. We recently launched hard case pieces, which are desks and tables and dressers and now it’s like phase two of that or phase three,” Zehr explained. “We’re launching the other pieces right at home. It’s this crazy [thing], taking what we created online into people’s homes, which our goal has always been, to be helpful to people.”
Albrecht echoed Zehr’s sentiment, telling us that she hasn’t “gotten over” the excitement surrounding the line. “I’ve got lots of pinch marks because yeah, it is so beyond crazy because I consume so much of that stuff already,” Albrecht shared.
