Laurence Sanders and Raphael Soeroyo are creative artisans in Bali who seek to create beautiful living spaces, which they want to display through the island's customs along with functional and modern designs.

"We are a duo with an eye and talent for crafting beautiful things to be stylish, creative and unique," Laurie says.

Raphael is a fashion designer who began designing furniture and jewelry, home décor and apparel with Laurie.

"We started out in 2004, producing unique items and designing retail spaces in exclusive hotels around the world," Laurie says. "But our main focus now is creating furniture."

They started out with a workshop in a corner of their garden. Now, they have eight talented craftsmen working with their designs in their studio.

Raphael's experience as the managing director of an ad agency along with Laurie's design background merge both of their artistic and business talents.

"What we produce is most definitely art," Raphael says.

NOVICA was started with a dream to create a better world for artisans, because a better world for artisans is a better world for all.

Along the way, the founders of NOVICA discovered something very important - as artisans around the world succeeded, there was also a visible and profound impact on the communities around them.

Your purchases are that powerful. They directly and indirectly provide for education, help with health care, fund basic needs, support children, preserve disappearing arts, and of course, spread happiness around the world.

The founders of NOVICA had a vision of the future that is not one of mega factories producing cookie cutter products for all to cheaply consume. Instead, a bright future that celebrates artisans who take the time to create an item by hand. A future where time is protected, where stories are told, where unique details are honored. Love, respect, inclusiveness become driving force.
