Growing up in Louisiana, Bennett was surrounded by echoes of his African ancestry. His travels to Senegal brought these stories into focus, inspiring designs that incorporate the vibrant patterns, rich earth tones and robust forms characteristic of African artistry.
He envisions his creations as the centerpiece of communal gathering, where stories are shared and memories are made. His work, from Ursa Minor Table Light to his furniture line, invites us to engage with our environment on a deeper level, fostering a sense of connection and belonging that enriches the everyday.
