The Home of Sustainable Things: A Sanctuary of Craftsmanship, Innovation, and Ethical Luxury
Tucked away in the heart of London, The HOST Store is more than just a retail space- it is a testament to the power of craftsmanship, a gallery of tactile beauty, and a haven for those who believe that artistry and sustainability are not mutually exclusive but intrinsically linked. Here, every object tells a story of skill, of heritage, and of a future where luxury is defined not by excess but by intention.
At its core, The HOST Store is a celebration of artisans-the quiet visionaries who shape raw materials into works of art. From exquisitely hand-thrown ceramics to jewellery that balances precision with poetry, each piece curated within these walls carries the mark of its maker. Their range includes the work of 40 pioneering designers. The store is a living showcase of the old-world mastery that too often fades in the face of mass production. Yet, this is no nostalgia-driven concept store; rather, it is a space where time-honoured techniques meet contemporary design, proving that sustainability and innovation can exist in harmony.
The ethos behind The HOST Store is clear: to champion craftsmanship in its purest form while respecting the planet. Founders Petko Tashev & Desislava Vangelova have long been advocates for slow, ethical production, believing that the future of design lies in a return to thoughtful making. Their curation is meticulous- sourcing artists and makers whose commitment to material integrity, fair production, and environmental responsibility is as unwavering as their creativity.
