FOLKE has a passion for modern design and vintage craftsmanship. Timeless and highly original home styling is what distinguishes us from all others. We believe that superior quality, brilliant design and stylish luxury should be attainable by anyone that seeks it.
Our philosophy honors the importance of exemplifying these elements alongside our social responsibilities and our belief in environmental consciousness. We incorporate our found pieces with new work created by local visionaries, together they create a life and a style that reflects your original self.
We're foragers, creators, and illuminators and we’re changing the way you think about your home.
FOLKE was founded by husband and wife team, Matt Rascoe and Courtney Kittner-Rascoe in early 2019.
Both having backgrounds in art, they each had an individual appreciation for design from the past. Courtney graduated from the Fashion Institute of Design & Merchandising and worked as a fashion stylist and art director. Matt attended California Institute of the Arts and went on to work in automotive photography and as a gallery artist.
Fifteen years ago they began collecting mid-century furniture together. Their ever growing hobby led to collection overflow, which, along with creativity, ingenuity and their entrepreneurial backgrounds, sparked the idea to open Folke. Inspired by their life-long love for vintage, the importance of sustainability in their lives, Matt’s Scandinavian heritage and Courtney’s Native American culture, a foundation was created.
