Hello! 

We’re Kevin and Tristen Glaab — the husband-and-wife team behind Kage Design Studio, proudly founded in Upland, California in 2013. (Say Hi To Our Always Present Tag Alongs Leo + Archie! )

With the help of our incredible team, we’ve been designing and handcrafting custom furniture for residential, commercial, restaurant, hospitality, and industrial spaces across the country — in all styles and at every scale.

Since childhood, we’ve both shared a deep love for art, design, and the creative process. Kevin, born and raised in Chino, California, studied Art in Florence, Italy, and earned a degree in Interior Design from the Interior Designers Institute in Newport Beach. Tristen, whose roots trace to Nova Scotia, Canada and Orange County, California, grew up living in many places and studied Fashion Marketing and Design at California Design College in Los Angeles.

Together, our diverse backgrounds and shared creative passion allow us to see each project through a unique lens. We find joy in every piece we craft and are truly honored to create furniture that brings people together.
