We settled into our new studio this summer and could not be happier with the space! Just down the hall from our old studio, this new space gives us some more room to s p r e a d o u t. With natural light coming in from the skylight and windows and reflecting off our wall of mirrors (it used to be a taekwondo studio), we feel re-energized in this bright open space!
We share our studio with two other creatives – Daniela from fashion brand Ajaie Alaie and John from Brooklyn based candle company Good Candle. It is great sharing the space with other small businesses and bouncing new ideas off of each other and hearing other perspectives. Plus sharing all of the nerdy tips like the best way to ship internationally or who has the best deals on recycled cardboard boxes.
Inspired by Georgia O'Keefe's home, we wanted this space to feel as welcoming as it is beautiful. Want to come and visit? Make an appointment and visit us! Just email info@kordalstudio.com to set up a time.

Like many of us, I was introduced to Ilana Glazer through the genius of Broad City, a show that she and pal Abbi Jacobson created and starred in. So when Ilana came to our Fort Greene shop last fall, we just about lost it! We shared that this year is Kordal's ten year anniversary and it would be such an honor to feature her in our Lived in Series to mark the occasion. Fast forward a few months later and Ilana is rolling up to set in Crown Heights on her bike, and yes, she's just as cool and kind as you'd expect. She's generous with her time, has everyone cracking up and looks incredible in our knits - even on a humid 90 degree day. We got a chance to talk about pregnancy and healthcare, how styling informs her characters, and finding levity amidst existential challenges.
