New York bred, self-taught designer and founder of Miansai, Michael Andrew Saiger draws inspiration from childhood memories of New England beaches and his mother’s passion for antiques. Having acquired a taste for authenticity, each bracelet is hand-made in his Miami-based studio with salvaged machinery, military grade rope and Italian leather.

At first, it seemed as though Fort Standard blocks were for those under the age of 7. Then Park Slope Staffer Drew started getting really creative with the blocks himself, and we were pretty impressed. Actually, our minds were kind of blown.
Created by a duo of designers who go by the name of Fort Standard, whose domestic projects, while utilitarian by nature, are anything but standard. Finished with nontoxic colors, these blocks are safe for the earth and people of all ages.
Fort Standard blocks, $85. Available at all Bird Locations in white and multicolored.
