Welcome to the fourth episode of the Trendease TV docuseries, where we continue to explore the inspiring Creatives Wings project at the cliffside corner of Kingsgate Castle, a historic landmark in the UK that is being decorated and furnished by today’s design heroes. This series celebrates the new talent and visionary companies championing creative social responsibility in this ongoing initiative.

Jana Spence was originally scouted by Trendease as an emerging designer for one of our new talent showcases. Since that exhibition, her career has blossomed. Little did we know, when doing this interview with Jana about her latest furniture collection—now at home in Kingsgate Castle—that she would later be honored by King Charles III as one of the 35 under 35: a network of makers and changemakers brought together to mark the 35th anniversary of the King’s Foundation, advocating for the change we want to see in the world. Congratulations Jana! Learn about this furniture designer’s process and craftsmanship here.

Creatives Wings is passionate about supporting new talent and creative social responsibility. Two creative residencies are now open for applications. Visit the castle, get involved, or learn more about the initiatives here. Stay connected.
