With a showroom, studio and custom workroom in Westport, Connecticut, Venezuelan-born furniture designer Jhon Ortiz’s custom furniture company The Tailored Home offers brightly colored handmade furnishings that span a range of styles.
Ortiz cofounded The Tailored Home with his life and business partner, Scott Falciglia. A veteran of the textile industry and retail, Oritz took design classes in Paris, Milan and at Fairfield University in Connecticut. At the latter, Falciglia focused on international business and met Ortiz around 2012 after a 12-year-long career in finance. Combining their talents, the pair moved in together and the foundation of The Tailored Home took shape in their basement workshop in Greenwich, Connecticut, in 2014. Despite working in areas of the business that call on their distinctive skill sets, the pair share responsibilities, endeavoring to create a company as dynamic and adaptable as their design philosophy.
As more people shift into roles across multiple careers over their lifetime, they too are uprooted and are required to make changes to their spaces as they adapt to new surroundings. The Tailored Room is all about choosing what speaks to you in your new moment, whether that is a custom-made ottoman, crafted by local artisans in Westport or Norwalk, or a console table right off the brand’s showroom floor.
While Ortiz designs and builds furnishings in the mid-century modern style — sofas with organic curves and sleek, low-profile tables that are ideal for your conversation pit — the brand also revisits antique and vintage furniture, in the spirit of upcycling, reviving secondhand case pieces with provocative finishes and covering-over discarded seating with dazzling new fabrics. To the firm’s founders, change does not mean being impulsive — it’s instead something you intentionally seek out, embrace and experience every so often to cultivate growth.
Featured in magazines and other media, The Tailored Home continues to support those who welcome change and appreciate quality furniture.
