Since 1993, Designer Stephanie Odegard has been partnering with a select group of designers to bring The Stephanie Odegard Collection to life. Known for her high-end, handcrafted, socially-conscious rug collections, the ongoing development of Odegard’s eponymous collection has transformed her showroom into a reputable source for luxury home furnishings of all kinds that are exquisitely crafted and kind to the planet and its people as well.

The latest collaboration is with Viya Home and the result is a selection home décor items that are representative of Viya Home’s native India, but will be perfectly at home in any setting that fuses history with modern elegance.

Product Description

The home décor pieces that make up the Viya Home for The Stephanie Odegard Collection are made of brass or copper, with select pieces made from stone overlaid with semi-precious materials like malachite, lapis lazuli and mother of pearl.

Viya Home Themes

  • India Modern: a contemporary twist on traditional Indian motifs and ancient Indian architecture.
  • Art Deco: designs inspired by Indian architecture popular in the 1950s.
  • Contemporary/International: a collection of deconstructed forms inspired by nature.
