Olivia “Via” San Mateo, owner and letter press designer of Olive-Route in Berkeley, California:

My mom used to work for an Oriental furniture store [Rosewood House] when I was growing up so I was surrounded by lots of rosewood furniture and antiques imported from China. Attending architecture school also started my love for anything Mid-Century. My aesthetic is a combination of these two strong influences: Asian & Mid-Century. Since most of my furniture tends to be darker and heavier, I lighten it up with the details such as airy chars, white vases, light walls.
