Richard Wilkinson
FOUNDER
Growing up in North Carolina, furniture and fabric was ever-present. Family, friends, someone you knew worked in a furniture factory or at a textile mill. In 2006 I began working for a local furniture manufacturer covering the west/southwest U.S. My focus was on the interior designer rather than the retailer and that focus forever changed my approach to how a home should be made. Over more than a decade now, I’ve been learning and appreciating the craft of the luxury market and what needs the interior designer and luxury home owner have and what they expect. That’s why I started MADE in 2018; to give a more concierge approach to the process of finding exceptionally crafted luxury goods and putting them in the hands of the experts who know how to use them, the interior designer.

Yaiza (jai · zuh) Brown
CO-FOUNDER / SALES DIRECTOR
Originally from Venezuela, I came to the US in 1996 and settled in Phoenix with my mother. I was always pulled toward fashion and design from a young age- costumes and dressing up was a form of play and evolved into creating stories through color and texture. It was during my education and travels that I began tilting toward the home as a whole and decided to pursue that passion. I earned a degree in Interior Design from Northern Arizona University and began working for some of the best interior design firms in the valley. Through those mentorships and experiences I’ve worked on projects big and small and through all corners of completion. I learned that style is nothing without service and formed wonderful collaborations with my suppliers and clients along the way. My background as a designer and my desire to inspire is the focus that keeps me always looking for the best in our field.

With a background in Media Sales where the fast-paced and collaborative nature of the work was exhilarating, I always knew that my greatest strength was my creativity. Whether writing, art, designing my own clothes, or dreaming up extraordinary interiors, I have felt my most authentic self when bringing these visions to life.
