As Seen in Elle Decor
JG Home Living is proud to share that our founder, Javier Gomez, was recently featured in Elle Decor in a beautiful story titled “How One Furniture Designer’s Abuela Helped Spur a Spiritual and Creative Epiphany.”
The article explores Javier’s deep connection with his grandmother, Alicia López, a philosophy teacher and energy healer who shaped his creative spirit from an early age. Her wisdom and resilience guided him through pivotal moments, from overcoming the challenges of the 2008 economic crisis to embracing art and design as his true calling.
What began with photography soon evolved into bold, sculptural furniture pieces, earning Javier recognition on the international stage, from Maison et Objet Americas to being named one of People Magazine’s “Sexiest Artists Alive.”
Today, Alicia’s influence continues to live within every JG Home Living creation, infusing our collections with intention, soul, and timeless artistry.
