John Brevard

John Brevard is the Creative Director of his namesake brand.

Born in Miami, Brevard became fascinated with naturally-occurring patterns and proportions found in the universe at a young age. His interests led to a deeper study of sacred geometry principles found throughout natural systems and in ancient architecture. This was combined with an exploration of theoretical sciences (phenomenology) during architecture graduate school, where he honed his art across multiple disciplines.

Brevard’s designs celebrate the interconnectivity of humankind with one another and to the universe as a whole. Inspired by the principles of natural order, his work is expressed in six series. The first five (Fabri, Orthofract, Verahedra, Morphogen, and Spherical) draw from Platonic solids, 3-D polyhedrons that ancient Greek philosophers believed embodied the classical elements (fire, earth, water, air, ether). Their combined forms coalesce into Singularity, the sixth series whose theme reflects the unity of past, presence, and future.

The brand currently includes extensive jewelry, furniture, sculpture, and art collections, as well handbags and shoes (by request). The designs are created from a wide range of materials, including metals (gold, silver, zinc, steel), precious stones, petrified wood, marble, resin, and more. In 2015, Brevard launched Thoscene, a patented customization platform that uses parametric modeling software built on astrologically-derived algorithms to create personalized, 3-D printed jewelry and accessories based on inputs such as time, date and location of birth.

All of John Brevard’s creations are symbolic of the inseparable relationship of the part to the whole.

Brevard has a flagship store in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. He currently lives between Miami and New York City.
