amy in wonderland
Amy's studio is located in the middle of the urban city scape of Chicago. Hardly the imaginative fairy-tale surroundings featured on her products. Yet this is where Amy founded her company, SODA, that designs and crafts products all based on her sketches. The drawings include playful wild wilderness animals, butterfly-filled forests, and romantic robots that simply must have crawled right out of her wonderland of dreams.
The beauty of Amy's products is their invitation to become a playful and creative child again. SODA's items feature charming simplicity that emotionally appeal to your spirit and make you, unknowingly, smile for a few moments. All of the porcelain pieces are crafted by Amy's own hand, on an order-by-order basis with 100% USA materials. The product line also includes both silk-screened fabric and custom wall coverings available by the yard.
Amy Allison holds a Bachelors of Arts Degree in Interior Design and Art in Design with a degree in Fine Arts in Furniture Design. She has worked as a furniture, accessory and interior designer for companies including Holly Hunt, Deirdre Jordan of Troscan Design and most recently The Lory Collection which are all located throughout showrooms nationwide. Her career path also includes time at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago. She launched her company, SODA, in 2006 and is currently sold in over 25 local and national boutiques.
