In my travels around the world, I discovered something timeless: hospitality is essential to human flourishing. In Turkey, Guatemala, Mexico, Barbados, Europe, and Australia, I was welcomed into homes and markets, kitchens and workshops. Families invited me to cook alongside them, elders shared wisdom passed down through generations, and artisans taught me their crafts. These moments reminded me that true design is not about perfection—it’s about creating spaces where people feel honored, nourished, and at home.

This is the heartbeat of my work. I believe our homes and workspaces should do more than function; they should soften the weight of life, invite connection, and restore the spirit.

For more than twenty years, I’ve shaped homes and workplaces through textiles, fashion, sensory design, and furniture—always blending hospitality, craft, and culture. My process begins by listening with curiosity. Together, we uncover the deeper needs of your space, then gather the elements that bring it into harmony—like composing a recipe that creates alignment and belonging.

The name Wagner Howard carries my family story. Howard traces back to my great-great-grandparents, pioneers in Queensland, Australia, where a town still bears our name. From them, I inherit a reverence for land, hospitality, and the traditions that bind people together. Wagner comes from another branch of my family, a lineage tied to craft and artistry. Together, these names ground the company in heritage while pointing forward—a reflection of my belief that design is both rooted in history and alive to the future.

I bring objects with story and soul and weave them into moments that matter—whether in the home, workplace, or public gathering spaces. The result is design that restores beauty, honors belonging, and helps people flourish in the rhythm of daily life.
