Brunel was created by Samantha Ruesch and Julia Miller of Yond Interiors. In their years imagining interiors together, always with an eye on finely crafted heritage pieces that celebrate history and story, the pair began to understand the need for custom options that delivered the same lived-in warmth. Brunel was born out of their shared aesthetic vision, mutual reverence for craft, and preoccupation with the perfect fit.

We believe that tailored design should be available to anyone—not just trade professionals. By integrating customization and flexibility of design into our process, we aim to empower the customer to create a piece that not only works perfectly in their space, but feels inherently personal to them.

Design is about people—how we live, create, and make our lives beautiful for ourselves and each other. Above all, we value our relationships, both with our customers and our talented craftspeople, whose artful intention is behind the level of quality we stand for. Every item we make is carefully crafted by hand, with attention to detail and deep respect for the process. The vision is to create something personal, thoughtful, and built to last.

Once you’ve chosen a Brunel design, it’s time to customize it to your specifications. Depending on the piece, you’ll have the ability to choose the color, material, or finish (or all of the above), all shown in the drop down menus on the product page. If what you’re looking for is not available on the menu, you can reach out to hello@shopbrunel.com to start a conversation about your project. Once your order is placed, our incredibly talented craftspeople will get to work on your design. We’ll let you know when it’s finished, and get in touch again once it’s been shipped.
