Leeds in Barcelona: Spotlight on Rowan Grant

Thursday, June 2, 2011 at 11:28AM

One of the designers who will feature during the Leeds in Barcelona project is Rowan Grant and her jewellery brand Kitschen Sink. We checked in with Rowan to get a bit of her back-story and her take on the Leeds creative scene.

We are delighted to have Rowan involved in Leeds in Barcelona: A Creative Encounter. She has added another dimension to what we are showcasing and gives something very different to the other brands involved: James Steward Couture, Dom, Dick and Harry and Nicholas Deakins. Somehow brands that start organically have so much more 'cool' then those manufactured by the system or for purely financial gain and Rowan is a great example of that: Working her way from 99p eBay auctions to being stocked in Selfridges!

This is the final video previewing the Leeds in Barcelona project and in the coming days we will begin reporting back on the project and share loads of pictures and videos!

Note: Big "thank you" to Neil at Testspace for hooking us up :)

Having seen Rowan selling on eBay and later on Facebook for the last couple of years, I was delighted when she opened a shop, and even more delighted when I realised she'd be sharing space with me! I get to work in her shop as well as my own all week. It's like a dream come true, and I'm learning so much from her. She's awesome, so modest, and so talented.
